Carboxymethyl Cellulose Market Analysis

Application (Detergent, Food & Beverage, Paper & Pulp, Cosmetic, Pharmaceutical, Paint & Coating, Oil Field Drilling Fluid)

The food & beverage segment in the carboxymethyl cellulose market is estimated to gain the largest revenue share of about 35% in the year 2036. The growth of the segment can be attributed growing consumption of packaged food, ready-to-cook meals, and instant noodles. The average American consumes 31% more packaged food than fresh food. Carboxymethyl cellulose is commonly used in food items as a thickening and stabilizer. It aids in the creation of a constant texture and the prevention of ingredient separation in sauces, gravies, and dressings.

Grade (Technical Grade, Industrial Grade, High Purity Grade)

The high-purity grade segment is expected to hold nearly 45% share of the global carboxymethyl cellulose market in the year 2036.  The growing use of high-purity grades in various industries, including cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and food & beverage industries is to boost the segment’s growth. Owing to its excellent purity and higher dependency, the high purity percentage of carboxymethyl cellulose is increasing. The efficiency of the end products, such as viscosity, particle size, solubility, and other properties are dependent on the degree of polymerization, purity, uniformity, and degree of substitution of the carboxymethyl cellulose. Therefore, its usage will continue to rise over the years.
