Transparency Market Research
Transparency Market Research is Published new Market Report “Acetic Acid Market for
VAM, PTA, Acetate Esters, Acetic Anhydride and Other Applications - Global
Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 - 2018", The
global acetic acid market was valued at USD 5.93 billion in 2011 and is expected to reach
USD 10.31 billion by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 9.3% over the forecast period from 2012
to 2018. In terms of volume, global demand was 9,612.5 kilo tons in 2011 and is expected
to grow at a CAGR of 4.8% over the forecast period from 2012 to 2018.
Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) and purified terephthalic acid (PTA), which are major
applications of acetic acid together accounted for over 55% of the global consumption in
2011. Growing demand of both the applications from the end-use industries such as
adhesives, sealants and packaging has been fueling market growth. However, volatile raw
material prices may a pose a challenge to the industry participants in the coming future.
Vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) dominated market demand and accounted for 32.5% of the
global acetic acid consumption in 2011. VAM demand is expected to remain strong over the
next five years owing to growth of global adhesives and sealants industry. PTA followed VAM

2. in terms of consumption and is expected to be fastest growing market at an estimated
CAGR of 5.4% over the forecast period from 2012 to 2018. PTA application is expected to
show substantial growth on the account of growing demand from polyethylene terephthalate
(PET) and other end-uses. Other applications acetate esters and acetic anhydride together
accounted for 27.3% of the global consumption in 2011.
China emerged as the leading consumer of acetic acid with 36.2% of the global demand in
2011. Strong economic growth coupled with rapid industrialization is expected to boost the
acetic acid market in the region. In addition, China is also expected to be the fastest
growing market at an estimated CAGR of 5.4%, from 2012 to 2018. North America and
Europe followed the Asian market and are expected to experience moderate growth due to
saturated demand from end-use industries.
The global acetic acid market is highly concentrated with the top four market participants
accounting for over 60% of the global market in 2011. Key participants in the market
include Cleanse Corporation, British Petroleum PLC., JinagsuSopo, Eastman Chemical,
LyondellBasell, SABIC and Yancon Cathay Chemicals.
