Specialty chemicals refer to high-value-added chemicals utilized in the production of various products such as fine chemicals, additives, advanced polymers, adhesives, sealants, specialty paints, pigments, and coatings. According to Technavio, the global specialty chemicals market size is determined by the consolidated revenue generated by manufacturers of organic and inorganic chemicals and their sub-categories. Key growth drivers for this market include the expanding demand for specialty adhesives and sealants. These materials are increasingly being adopted in various end-use industries due to their superior performance characteristics. Consequently, the nitrocellulose market, as a crucial component of specialty adhesives and sealants, is poised to experience robust growth in the coming years. - The Nitrocellulose Market is experiencing significant growth, fueled by the Abundant availability of cellulose and simple manufacturing process for nitrocellulose. Businesses are leveraging the products belonging to the market for customer engagement, transactional notifications, and promotional offers.

  • Major Findings:
    • Abundant availability of cellulose and simple manufacturing process for nitrocellulose
    • Growth of wooden furniture industry
    • Stringent regulations on emissions of hazardous substances
    • Volatile prices of raw materials used in paint production
  • Growth Projections

The market size is estimated to grow by USD 488.1 million, at a CAGR of 8.09% during the forecast period. Nitrocellulose is a crucial component in the production of low-order explosives, specifically as a propellant. These explosives generate subsonic explosions, lacking the supersonic over-pressurization shock wave characteristic of high-order explosives. As a single-base propellant, nitrocellulose provides motion to objects through the decomposition of its chemical structure. Alternatively, when combined with nitroglycerine, it forms a double-base propellant, enhancing its performance. Composites, which contain nitrocellulose and nitroglycerine, represent another category of propellants, offering a balanced combination of fuel and oxidizer. Overall, nitrocellulose's versatility as a propellant contributes significantly to the explosives industry.
