The reasons for the growth of antifoaming agent market include rise in
adoption of solvent-based and water-based formulations, integration of
industrial processes in the food segment, growth in the applications of
antifoaming agents in several industries, expansion of pharmaceutical industry
that highly demands antifoaming agents, potential demand from agriculture
industry especially in developing economies. Additionally, increase in number
of environmental issues and regulations concerning the release of emissions
from various industries and curb on VOC emissions is driving the market growth.
However, lack of awareness of industrial use of antifoaming agents is hampering
the antifoaming agent market.
Increasing use of antifoaming agents in bioprocesses is an emerging trend
in the market. Nonetheless, advancements in technologies in performance and
compositions of antifoaming agents is expected to offer lucrative opportunities
to the market. Strict rules regarding toxic and heavy chemicals is challenging
the industry players.
Antifoaming agent market is categorized on the basis of product type,
application, and region. On the basis of product type, market is divided into
water-based, oil-based, silicone-based, EO/PO based, powder based, non-silicone
defoamers, ester based, alkyl poly acrylates, and others. Oil-based,
water-based, and silicone-based are the commonly used in industrial
applications in comparison to other types.
In terms of application, market is divided into oil & gas,
detergents, textiles, food & beverages, pharmaceuticals, paints &
coatings, paper & pulp, water treatment, and others. Pulp and paper and oil
and gas segments are expected to hold maximum share of the market owing to the
high consumption to remove process foam or the oil foam in manufacturing, gas
processing plants, and refinery. Antifoaming agents are majorly used in these
industries for separation of gas-oil, gas dehydration, drilling mud and gas
scrubbing.
Regionally, antifoaming agent industry is segmented as North America,
Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. North
America is projected to hold larger share of the market due to high demand in
food and beverage industry. Asia pacific is expected to dominate the market in
the forecast period owing to speedy industrialization. Furthermore, growth of
the market in European regions is witnessing steady growth due to restricted
use in some industries.
The major players profiled in antifoaming agent market include Air
Products and Chemicals Inc., Ashland LLC, BASF SE, Dow Corning Corporation,
Kemira OYJ, HiMedia Laboratories Pvt. Ltd., Wacker Chemie AG, Ecolab Inc.,
Evonik Industries AG, and Elementis Plc.
