Common application areas of ethanal are chemicals, plastics and synthetic rubber, food and beverages, paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paper and pulp, and water treatment. Among these, the category of food and beverages occupies a significant share in the acetaldehyde market. This can be mainly attributed to the use of the chemical as a flavoring agent in various food items. However, during the forecast period, the market is expected to register the fastest growth in the water treatment application.

Acetaldehyde, also known as ethanal (CH3CHO), is an organic compound that belongs to the group of aldehydes. It is a colorless and flammable liquid with a pungent smell and is mainly used as vinegar in households. The chemical is found in various fruits and vegetables and is also present in diesel and gasoline exhausts.

The growth of the acetaldehyde market is moderately restrained by the use of methanol in the production of acetic acid. Besides, propylene is being used as a substitute for ethanal in the manufacturing of butyraldehyde. Also, according to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, it is found to be carcinogenic to humans. Thus, these factors are negatively impacting the market growth to some extent.

The acetaldehyde market is categorized into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific (APAC), Latin America, and the Middle East and Africa. During the forecast period, the market is expected to witness the fastest growth in APAC. This can be mainly attributed to the easy availability of raw material for the production of ethanal in the region. Besides, in countries such as India and China, the cost associated with the manufacturing of ethanal is quite low. Additionally, the increasing demand for agrochemicals is further propelling the demand for ethanal in the APAC region. Besides APAC, North America can be viewed as a potential market owing to the growth witnessed in its pharmaceuticals industry in recent years.

Some of the major players operating in the global acetaldehyde market are Showa Denko K.K. (SDK), Merck KGaA, Celanese Corporation, Eastman Chemical Company, Jubilant Life Sciences, Lonza Group Ltd., BASF SE, CNPC, and Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd., and Ashok Alco-Chem Ltd.
