Pharmaceutical Grade Carboxymethyl Cellulose is the fastest growing segment fueling growth of the Carboxymethyl Cellulose Market
Carboxymethyl Cellulose Market |
The global Carboxymethyl
Cellulose Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1201.83 Mn in 2023 and is
expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.1%
over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published
by Coherent Market Insights.
Market Overview:
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is
a cellulose derivative with carboxymethyl groups bound to some of the hydroxyl
groups of the glucopyranose monomers that make up the cellulose backbone. It is
used as an emulsifier, stabilizer and thickening agent in foods, cosmetics,
detergents and other industrial applications due to its viscous and gelling
properties when in solution.
Market key trends:
One of the key trends driving
growth in the CMC market is the increasing demand from the pharmaceutical
industry. Pharmaceutical grade CMC is widely used as an excipient in
pharmaceutical formulations due to its beneficial properties such as
compressibility, compactibility, and binding ability. It is commonly used as a
disintegrant and binder in drug tablets and capsules to help maintain the shape
and structural integrity of tablets. The rising generic and OTC drug markets
are fueling the demand for pharmaceutical grade CMC from drug manufacturers.
Furthermore, its widespread application as a viscosity modifier in liquid
formulations, stabilizer for suspensions and emulsions, and coating material
also contributes to its increasing use in the pharmaceutical sector.
Segment Analysis
The carboxymethyl cellulose
market is segmented by type, grade, application, and region. Based on type, the
market is bifurcated into sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and carboxymethyl
cellulose. Among these, the sodium carboxymethyl cellulose segment accounted
for the largest market share in 2022 owing to its wide application in food
& beverages, personal care, and pharmaceutical industries. By grade, the
market is categorized into high purity, industrial, and food. The food grade
segment dominated the market in 2022 as CMC is used extensively in food
stabilizers, thickeners, and gelling agents. In terms of application, the
market is divided into food & beverages, petroleum, personal care, paints
& adhesives, pharmaceutical, industrial, paper, and others. The food &
beverages segment dominates the market due to extensive use of CMC in various
food applications.
