Analysts’ Viewpoint on Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB) Market Scenario
The global linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market is characterized by the presence of a large number of regional manufacturers. Major players have been focused on expanding in developing economies and continuous innovations to improve the quality of their product. LAS is predominantly used for captive consumption for manufacturing heavy-duty laundry liquids, laundry powders, industrial cleaners. Household cleaners are expected to be the fastest growing application segment over the next five years. Industrial cleaners constitute another important end-use industry for LAS. Moreover, rapid economic development and industrial growth in emerging economies are projected to propel the demand for industrial cleaners in the years to come. Manufacturing companies are focusing on revenue growth by increasing their efforts and overcoming challenges in the linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market.
Rise in applications of linear alkyl benzene (LAB) in household cleaners and light-duty dishwashing liquid is expected to drive the global linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market during the forecast period. Heavy-duty laundry liquids are major application areas of LAB, in terms of both volume and revenue. Linear alkyl benzene (LAB) is significantly used in manufacturing of LAS (Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonate). LAS is a basic raw material used in the manufacturing of detergent and accounts for a significant portion of the global LAB consumption. LAB can be converted to LAS or directly supplied for various end-user applications. LAB exhibits optimum optical transparency, high light yield, high flash point, and low radioactive impurities due to which it is also used in neutrino detectors.
LAB can also be used in various other end-use applications such as ink solvents, agricultural herbicides, wetting agents, emulsion polymerization, electric cable oil, and the paint industry. Increasing global consumption of linear alkyl benzene is expected to propel the demand, which, in turns, fuel the growth of the market in the upcoming years.
The growing demand for cleaners is expected to be a major driver for the global demand for LAB. Regulatory policies have imposed restrictions over the use of non-biodegradable surfactants such as dodecylbenzene sulfonates. LAS, a surfactant derived from LAB is easily bio-degradable and is used as a replacement for dodecylbenzene sulfonates, which has been a major driver for the growth of the industry. LAS also known as LABSA (linear alkylbenzene sulphonic acid) is a biodegradable surfactant, extensively used in the production of laundry powders, industrial cleaners, dishwashing liquids, etc. LAB offers optimum optical transparency, high light yield, high flash point, and low radioactive impurities. All these factors are contributing to the rising applications of LAB in neutrino detectors. LAB is also used in paint and agricultural industry, ink solvents, wetting agents, emulsion polymerization, electric cable oil, etc.
There is an increasing demand for linear alkyl benzene compounds and products manufactured from it across the globe. The global linear alkyl benzene (LAB) is majorly driven by factors such as rapid urbanization and industrial growth. The increasing demand for hygiene and cleanliness all over the world is expected to drive the global linear alkyl benzene market during the forecast period. The rising sales of detergent cleaners, surface cleaners, powders, etc. after the rapid spread of coronavirus across the globe is driving the market growth for linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market. In addition, the global market is projected to grow as a result of the ongoing development of the industries across the globe.
Asia Pacific is expected to account for the largest share of the global linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market. This is due to the strong growth of end-use industries of LAB in developing economies such as India and China. Asia Pacific dominates the worldwide linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market due to the availability of raw materials at affordable rates. China is the most profitable country in the linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market. The increasing applications of linear alkyl benzene (LAB) in heavy-duty laundry liquids, laundry powders, and industrial cleaners, light-duty dishwashing liquids, and household cleaners is expected to help this region produce considerable revenues over the next few years. The lucrative presence of manufacturers operating in the linear alkyl benzene (LAB) market is also contributing to the rapid market expansion.
