Latest News- Specialty Chemicals Market: Agrochemicals is expected to lead the End-user segment during 2025-2029

The Specialty Chemicals Market is being driven by Increasing demand for specialty chemicals from agrochemical industry

The Specialty Chemicals Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 383.2 billion. In the specialized chemical industry, bio-based chemicals have gained significant traction as eco-friendly alternatives to petroleum-based lubricants and plastics. These bio-based alternatives, such as bio-lubricants and biodegradable plastics, are derived from renewable feedstocks, including plant-based oils and sugars. The production process involves fermentation, ultrafiltration, and crystallization techniques. Environmentally-friendly bio-lubricants offer numerous advantages, including the reduction of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and toxic gases emitted from vehicles, thereby contributing to the preservation of the atmospheric ecological balance. Countries like Canada, the US, and Germany are actively investing in the research and development of these eco-friendly lubricants. Meanwhile, developing countries, such as China, Japan, and India, and developed regions, including Europe and North America, have seen a surge in the adoption of green, sustainable lubricants and energy-saving resin systems. This trend is driven by growing environmental concerns and the increasing demand for eco-friendly products. Bio-based lubricants not only offer environmental benefits but also contribute to energy savings and improved performance.
