CHPTAC Market Outlook:
CHPTAC Market size was valued at USD 267.91 million in 2025 and is likely to cross USD 428.16 million by 2035, expanding at more than 4.8% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2026-2035. In the year 2026, the industry size of CHPTAC is assessed at USD 279.48 million.
CHPTAC is used as a major raw material for the manufacture of Cationic Guar gum, which is often used in textile chemicals. In textile production processes, cationic guar gum is used for sizing, printing, and finishing. The demand for textiles chemicals and CHPTAC is also being driven by the increasing textile sector, especially in emerging economies. By 2022, that amount had increased to about 113.8 million metric tons, nearly quadrupling. The manufacturing volume of natural fibers, such as cotton and wool, was 25.2 million metric tons, while the remaining 87.6 million metric tons were produced by chemical fibers.
Furthermore, the etherification process was successfully modified by using CHPTAC for the cationization of cellulose in textile fibers and other polysaccharides, such as agarose or the polysaccharide backbone of tamarind kernels, among others, as a result of improvements and analyses of paper properties. The growing end-use industries are expected to increase demand for CHPTAC during the projection period.
