Overview
of the global specialty surfactants market and biosurfactants market
Surfactants
are substances or amphiphilic organic compounds, which means that
they comprise both hydrophobic (water repellant) and hydrophilic
(water soluble or absorbent) groups. In real-world terms, what this
means is that these compounds can be used for enhanced cleaning
efficiency, especially of water-based compositions. In other words,
they ease the surface tension of liquids. Surfactants can disperse,
modify, or emulsify the lubricity of such water-based compositions.
Biosurfactants,
on the other hand, are a variety of surfactants where at least one of
the two basic groups-hydrophobic or hydrophilic-is derived from a
plant-based source. However, biosurfactants are not always 100%
plant-based.
The
two common methods of manufacturing surfactants include: Oleochemical
(derived from natural vegetable oils) and synthetic (derived from
petrochemicals). The global specialty surfactants market and
biosurfactants market is thus broadly segmented based on these two
common derivation methods.
As
of 2011, the global surfactants market, by volume, was estimated at
over 15 million tons. This market has had to contend with a slew of
unfavorable conditions such as soaring prices of raw material, an
increasingly stringent regulatory environment, and an intensifying
sustainability movement worldwide. Given this largely tumultuous
scenario, the worldwide specialty surfactants market and
biosurfactants market is expected to register a growth rate of just
2% to 3% over this decade.
The
focus of both large and small companies in the market is showing a
steady shift toward the specialty surfactants industry, which
currently accounts for an estimated 25% share (valued at USD 25
billion) of the global market demand.
Segmentation
of the global specialty surfactants market and biosurfactants market
By
product type, the specialty surfactants market and biosurfactants
market can be segmented as: cationic surfactants, nonionic
surfactants, anionic surfactants, amphoteric surfactants, and others
such as silicone and fluorosurfactants.
The
report observes that anionic surfactants are the most extensively
used surfactant as LABS (linear alkyl benzene sulfonate) is widely
used across a myriad of industries. However, the market study
estimates that the non-ionic surfactants segment will emerge as the
fastest-growing category over the coming years.
By
application, the report segments the market as: home care, personal
care, food processing, industrial and institutional cleaners,
agricultural chemicals, oilfield chemicals, paints and coatings,
textiles, emulsion polymerization (plastics), construction, and other
markets. The largest share of the application market is occupied by
home and personal care, with these two segments accounting for more
than 65% of the total demand as of 2011.

The
report also studies the global specialty surfactants and
biosurfactants market by geography. Since 2009, Asia Pacific has held
on to its position as the leading producer and consumer of
surfactants. Our expert analysts expect this trend to continue as the
demand in this region will see a 4% growth over the next five years.
Companies
mentioned in the global specialty surfactants market and
biosurfactants market report:
BASF,
with its acquisition of Cognis, has emerged as a global market leader
in the surfactants market. Other significant participants in this
market are: Kao, Stephens, and Akzo-Nobel.
In
the Indian market, the consumption of surfactants stood at 500,000
tons in 2011. The surfactant market in India is dominated by Galaxy
Surfactants. Other competitors in this market are: Reliance, Godrej,
and Clariant.
