Performance Chemicals Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: By Type, By Application, By End Users, and Region Forecast 2019-2030

Performance Chemicals Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis: Size, Share, Growth, Trends, and Global Industry Analysis By Type (Antioxidant, Surfactant, and Biocides), By Application (Pesticides, Advanced Ceramic Materials, Cosmetic Chemicals, Electronic Chemicals, Food Additives, Macromolecular Additive, and Imaging chemicals & Materials), By End Users (Agrochemicals, Chemical Industry, Food Industry, Medicine, Textile, and Others), and Region Forecast 2019-2030

The performance chemical market size was valued at US$ 284.5 billion in 2023 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.1% over the forecast year to reach US$ 403.0 billion in 2030. Performance chemicals enhance the properties of commodity materials such as polymers, textiles, and rubber during processing or in the finished application.

Increasing demand for high-performance materials across automotive, construction, and consumer goods industries would be the key driver in this market. Simultaneously, there is a great push towards sustainability and environment-friendly products, due to which manufacturers are demanding more 'greener' versions of such chemicals instead of the traditional ones. Raw material price volatility and tough regulatory compliance requirements are among the hindrances in this market that may complicate the production process.

Other opportunities that emerge in the area of bio-based and specialty chemicals are in response to growing customer-specific needs. Furthermore, digitalization and smart manufacturing trends are also coming in and impacting the industry, with companies seeking high-tech solutions to avoid generating waste. Market research has recently estimated the performance chemicals market would reach about $50 billion worldwide by 2026, in line with a CAGR of around 6%, with this representing the continued transformation in industries

Performance Chemicals Market Key Developments

  • In April 2021Evonik Industries AG announced that it has started to pursue the application of the high-performance polymer VESTAKEEP PEEK as a demonstrated implant polymer for medical science for efficient structural prosthesis systems. For this purpose, the company is tapping into the competence of medical professionals at Massachusetts General Hospital's world-renowned Center for Knee and Hip Replacement (USA). If this innovation is successful, it should substantially increase the delivery life of VESTAKEEP-based joint prostheses and maybe reduce the necessity for surgical intervention or days of pain therapy.
  • In May 2020, BASF has now launched its new Melyra fungicide to the Chinese market. As the first of a kind, it is a usually structured set of integrated new products for the Chinese market based on the active ingredient from BASF's fungicide Revysol. Melyra combines the latest fungicide innovation of the firm with BASF's tried and trusted F500 active ingredient. This is an interesting new solution for farmers to support them in collecting more commercially viable crops.
