Global Bleaching Chemicals Market Overview
Bleaching Chemicals are usually based on peroxides which do not contain chlorine such as sodium percarbonate, hydrogen peroxide, and sodium perbonate. Bleaching chemicals are industrially as well as domestically used for, whitening clothes and removing stains from textiles. Bleaching chemicals are as well used in the pulp and paper industry for the bleaching of wood pulp used in making paper. Bleaching chemicals are also used in horticulture for killing weeds, removing mildew and increasing longevity of cut flowers. Bleaching agents function by interacting with many organic chemical compounds to turn them colorless. Chlorine is a powerful oxidizing agent present in a number of bleaching agents. Bleaching chemicals are also capable of irreversibly denaturing and destroying many proteins that make them versatile disinfectants with good antimicrobial efficiency. Reducing bleaches have niche uses such as bleaching wool. The very earliest application of bleaching chemicals involved spreading out clothes and fabrics in a bleach field that were whitened by the action of water and the sun. Many research and development in various end-user industries has resulted in the discovery of new applications of bleaching chemicals in the past that is predicted propel the market over the forecast period across the globe.
Market Size & Forecast
Bleaching Chemicals Market is anticipated to record a CAGR of 5.9% over the forecast period. The bleaching chemicals market is estimated to value at 3.5 billion by the end of the forecast period. Moreover, the many advantageous properties of bleaching chemicals are exploited in the field of textiles and water treatment now and then. New uses for bleaching chemical derivatives are discovered on regular basis which is expected to drive the bleaching chemicals market rapidly.
Currently the global bleaching chemicals market is observing vibrant growth owing to increasing demand of polymer foams in the market. Advances in food and beverage industry in the past few years and growing technological expertise are projected to drive bleaching chemicals market besides the wide range of functions of bleaching chemicals in an immense range of products such as face bleach masks, laundry bleaches, hair bleach serums and more during the forecast period. On the basis of regional platform, global Bleaching Chemicals market is segmented into five major regions including North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America and Middle East & Africa region.
As a precursor to decolorizing agent in textile industry, Asia-Pacific is panned to observe substantial bleaching chemicals market growth on account of rising bleaching chemicals usage. On the back of multiplying bleaching chemical uses in growing end-use industries such as agricultural, construction, pulp and paper, electronics, industrial and water treatment, Asia Pacific is budding as a regional Bleaching Chemicals and its derivatives consumption market. North America is expected to follow Asia-Pacific in terms of consumption due to expanding bleaching chemicals requirements in food & beverage and water treatment industries.
Europe is expected to drive demand and positively impact bleaching chemicals market growth over the forecast period owing to increasing bleaching chemicals application for water treatment processes. However, weak economic conditions in some parts of the European region are predicted to slowdown the steady rapid growth of the market during the forecast period.
