Muconic acid is a naturally occurring chemical compound that can also be obtained from sorbic acid and its salts. This acid is denoted as COOH. It is a dicarboxylic acid that contains two carboxyl functional groups. Muconic acid derivatives, including adipic acid and caprolactam, are used in the manufacture of various products such as carpets, textiles, PET and other polymers, lubricants and plastics which are also used as primary raw materials in manufacturing of plastics, boxes, cans, bottles and bags. Muconic acid bioproduction can also be used in a platform form to produce a wide variety of consumer bioplastics, including nylon 66, polyurethane and polyethylene terephthalate.

Based on type, muconic acid market can be segregated as caprolactam, adipic acid and others. In addition, based on applications, market can be segregated as carpets & textiles, plastics and lubricants. Muconic acid derivatives such as nylon 66 are widely used by the carpet and textile industries. The market for muconic acid chemicals is growing in the carpet and textile segment due to the increasing demand for nylon 66 fibers and their thermoplasticity and elongation properties. It is made from polyamides such as adipic acid and hexamethylene diamine (HDMA). The consumption of bio-based muconic acid is also increasing due to economic efficiency and growing environmental awareness. Plastics segment holds major share in global market as it is extensively used in various end-user industries for packaging, as plastic is very cost-competitive and has high strength & pressure resistance ability.
Growth in research &
development (R&D) activities, followed by rise in demand of packages
products and increase in demand for lubricants in various end-use industries
such as automobile, chemical and manufacturing industries are some major
factors, which are responsible for growth of the muconic acid market. Apart
from this, stringent government regulation is a major restraining factor for
market.
Based on regional analysis, the
North-America is a leading region in Global
Muconic Acid Market owing rapid technological modifications in the
textile industry and to growth in automobile industry across the region. The
Europe and Asia-Pacific regions are estimated to witness higher growth rate due
to developed plastics and textile industry and rise in disposable income over
the forecast period. It is projected that future of the global muconic acid
market will be bright as a result of increase in concerns among consumers
regarding the use of bio-based products during the forecast period.
