Global Alcohol Ethoxylates Market: Overview

Alcohol ethoxylates are compounds that are commonly used in various industrial verticals.  Through reaction of a fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide these compounds are synthesized which results in a molecule that consists of two major components oleophilic, carbon-rich, fatty alcohol and hydrophilic, polyoxyethylene chain. Alcohol ethoxylate based surfactants are non-ionic they typically require longer ethoxylate chains than their sulfonated analogues in order to be water-soluble.

Alcohol ethoxylate surfactants enhances mixing and solubilization of oil and water with the unique structure a single molecule can effectively inhabit the interface of two immiscible phases i.e. oil and water. This helps them to bring them together and lower interfacial energy associated between them.

Alcohol ethoxylates compounds are surfactants and can be used wherever oily substances come into contact with water or surface. Ethoxylated alcohols can be used as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, degreasers and emollients in many lines of commercially available products and industrial practices.

Global Alcohol Ethoxylates Market: Dynamics

Increasing demand for alcohol ethoxylates from paint & coating and oil & gas sector, owing to high stabilizing characteristics of oil-water emulsions is a major factor expected to drive growth of the global market. In addition, increasing adoption by pharmaceutical sector of alcohol ethoxylates in preparation novel products is expected to further support growth of the market to certain extent.

However, high and fluctuating raw material prices is a major factor expected to hamper growth of the global market. In addition, availability of substitutes is another factor expected to further limit growth of the global market to certain extent.

Increasing investment by major players for R&D activities is expected to further create potential revenue opportunities for players operating in the target market over the forecast period.

Global Alcohol Ethoxylates Market: Segment Analysis

Among the source segments, the synthetic segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Among the end use industry segments, the oil & gas segment is expected to dominate in the target market over the forecast period.

Global Alcohol Ethoxylates Market: Region

The markets in North America and Europe are expected to contribute significant revenue shares in the global market. this can be attributed to increasing demand from oil & gas sector and presence of major players operating in the countries in this region. In addition, increasing demand from paint & coating industry, coupled with growing merger and acquisition activities between regional and international players is expected to further support growth of the target market in this region to certain extent.

The market in Asia Pacific is expected to witness faster growth, owing increasing government expenditure on pharmaceutical sector, coupled with increasing demand by pharmaceutical sector and presence of prominent players operating in the emerging economies in this region.
