Alcohol Ethoxylates Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The growing demand for household and personal care products is notably driving the alcohol ethoxylates market growth, although factors such as volatile prices of ethylene oxide may impede market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the alcohol ethoxylates industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Alcohol Ethoxylates Market Driver
The growing demand for household and personal care products is a major factor driving the global alcohol ethoxylates market share growth. Alcohol ethoxylates are primarily used in personal care and household products such as shampoos, shower creams, bubble baths, bath soaps, detergents, dishwashing liquids, and cleaners. Their emulsifying properties help in cleaning skin and hair by mixing water with oil and dirt. They are increasingly used in personal care products due to their easy application and cooling effect on the skin. Alcohol ethoxylates are used as wetting agents as they exhibit low foaming property. They are preferred in cosmetics such as lipsticks, eyeliners, mascara, eyeshadows, and foundations as they provide wax emulsions to the product and improve the shelf life of these products. Therefore, there is a high demand for alcohol ethoxylates in the personal care and household segments.
Key Alcohol Ethoxylates Market Trend
The rising demand for biosurfactants is another factor supporting the global alcohol ethoxylates market share growth. The global biosurfactants market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.02% during the forecast period owing to the rising environmental concerns. Most of the manufacturers use traditional surfactants that do not degrade easily and are retained as industrial wastes in dumping areas. Bio-surfactants are biodegradable and non-toxic. They do not cause harmful physiological effects and perform better than traditional surfactants. Compared with bio-surfactants, traditional surfactants involve lower costs of production and are mainly used in the detergent and personal care industries. Major companies are switching to bio-surfactants such as alcohol ethoxylates due to the toxicity of these surfactants. These are non-toxic and biodegradable and exhibit the properties of synthetic surfactants. The rise in the demand for biosurfactants is expected to increase the consumption of alcohol ethoxylates during the forecast period.
Key Alcohol Ethoxylates Market Challenge
The volatile prices of ethylene oxide will be a major challenge for the global alcohol ethoxylates market share growth during the forecast period. Alcohol ethoxylates are prepared from raw materials such as alcohol and ethylene oxide, whereas ethylene oxide is derived mainly from crude oil. Volatile prices of crude oil have an adverse effect on ethylene oxide prices. Crude oil prices worldwide have been fluctuating for many years, and the fluctuation is expected to continue during the forecast period as well. When crude oil prices are high, producers use natural gas to manufacture ethylene oxide to increase profit margins. Volatile prices of ethylene oxide, in turn, have a direct impact on the price of alcohol ethoxylates.
