Lignosulfonates Market: Key Drivers and Challenges
The growing construction activities are notably driving the lignosulfonates market growth, although factors such as complexities in the production of lignosulfonates may impede the market growth. Our research analysts have studied the historical data and deduced the key market drivers and the COVID-19 pandemic impact on the lignosulfonates industry. The holistic analysis of the drivers will help in deducing end goals and refining marketing strategies to gain a competitive edge.
Key Lignosulfonates Market Driver
Growing construction activities in the commercial and residential building segments across the globe are driving the global lignosulfonates market growth. Lignosulfonates are often used in construction applications to reduce water requirements in concrete admixtures, disperse the cement when water is mixed with the concrete, and increase the utilization of the cement. The increasing demand is supported by the huge investment by governments of countries for infrastructural development. For instance, the Indian government announced 100% foreign direct investment (FDI) for townships and settlement projects, the US government allocated a sum of $200 billion for the development of infrastructure. Other welfare initiatives such as the Smart Cities Mission, the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), and the Sardar Patel National Urban Housing Mission of the Indian government are expected to increase the demand for lignosulfonates in emerging markets such as APAC, which will positively impact the market growth of the market during the forecast period.
Key Lignosulfonates Market Challenge
Complexities in the production of lignosulfonates are major challenges to the global lignosulfonates market growth. Lignosulfonates are produced through sulfonation that requires acidic conditions which can result in undesirable inter-lignin condensation reactions, thus lowering the application viability of lignosulfonates. Moreover, corrosion of pulp digesters in the production of lignosulfonates due to the continuous use of chemicals is a major challenge for lignosulfonate manufactures. Availability of substitutes of lignosulfonates such as calcium chloride, dead sea salt, and magnesium chloride on roads for dust control, base stabilization, and full-depth reclamation will negatively impact the market growth of the market during the forecast period.
This lignosulfonates market analysis report also provides detailed information on other upcoming trends and challenges that will have a far-reaching effect on the market growth. The actionable insights on the trends and challenges will help companies evaluate and develop growth strategies for 2021-2025.
