Growth Drivers

  • Rising Demand in Paper Industry - Acid Orange Dye has many applications, including paper coating, and molding powders, and also works well for coloring pulp and paper.

  • Growing Demand for Cosmetics- A synthetic pigment known as acid orange 7 is occasionally referred to as a monoazo color in general, which is utilized as a dye in semi-permanent hair coloring solutions, and as a direct hair coloring agent in both non-oxidative and oxidative hair dye formulations.

Challenges

  • Side effects of acid orange - A carcinogen and chronic irritant, Acid Orange 7 is one of the acidic azo dyes that harms skin and eyes since it is known that certain azo dyes can decompose generating hazardous aromatic amines. Moreover, owing to their poisonous or carcinogenic properties, acid dyes, which are commonly employed in the textile industry, may have negative consequences on both human health and the environment, which is expected to hamper the acid orange market growth in the coming years.

  • Stringent environmental regulations associated with the manufacturing of dyes- Most industrialized nations have strict laws governing the handling of all known carcinogens, which has led almost all dye companies to stop producing these compounds since the metabolites of benzidine and 2-naphthylamine, rather than the colors themselves, caused bladder cancer in the workers who handled dyes based on these compounds.
  • Fluctuating prices of raw materials may impact the production
