Isopropyl Acetate Market Projected to Witness Vigorous Expansion by 2026

Global Isopropyl Acetate Market Introduction

Isopropyl Acetate is a colorless solvent with low flash point, aromatic fruity odor, and moderate solubility in water. Isopropyl acetate is increasingly being used as a solvent for rotogravure inks and flexographic printing inks. It is an active solvent for many types of synthetic resins such as cellulose acetate butyrate, nitrocellulose, vinyl copolymers, polyesters, polyamides, acrylics, and alkyds. Isopropyl acetate is an ester, manufactured by reacting acetic acid with isopropanol in the presence of a catalyst. Isopropyl acetate has excellent solubility for nitrocellulose, resin gums, plastics, paints, lacquers, inks, organic synthesis and perfumes. Significant demand for isopropyl acetate is projected to come from the advanced coatings industry for automotive and transportation segment.

Global Isopropyl Acetate Market Dynamics

Market Drivers

With the significant rise in demand for rotogravure inks i.e for magazines, books, newspapers, inserts and catalogues also packaging printing on metal and plastic film the global demand for isopropyl acetate is projected to grow. Moreover, isopropyl acetate is also being used for for flexographic printing inks i.e. for paper, cardboard etc. amongst others especially in Asia Pacific region, thus creating traction in the global market.

The rising demand for coatings in automotive industry is projected to create significant traction in the market. With the rise in vehicle production and demand for highly advanced coating material, the overall isopropyl acetate market is projected to grow significantly over the forecast period.

Isopropyl acetate is an excellent resin solvent with solubility with a number of organic solvents.

Another factor supporting the growth of isopropyl acetate is it is a no-HAP (hazardous air pollutant). The product also complies with the reach regulations thus it is preferably used over a number of specified applications.

Market Restraints

The global major impeding the growth of isopropyl acetate is the use of water based paints and coatings. With advancement in technology, the paints and coatings industry is developing high quality water based paints that have excellent durability, quick drying time and emit less odor. Additionally, after drying, solvent based paints form a film and the hydrocarbon solvents are evaporated; thus, releasing harmful volatile organic compounds in the atmosphere. The water based paints market is foreseen to grow at a healthy CAGR, owing to environmental and other benefits. The legislation is also in support of this trend. As a result, it affects the isopropyl acetate market.

One of the major challenge faced by the global isopropyl acetate market is the use of other solvents which have better solubility and are made from renewable feedstock. Thus affecting the market growth

Market Trends

Conventionally, the use of isopropyl acetate was limited to printing inks and coatings industry. However, over the past few years, there has been an increase in use as fragrance carrier. Moreover, the manufacturers are focusing on developing green processes for the manufacture of isopropyl acetate in order to sustain the market competition.
