LONDON, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- According to The Business Research Company’s research report on the polyacrylamide market, growth in the historic period in the polyacrylamide market resulted from rising applications of the material, growth of the pulp and paper industry, strong economic growth, demand of polyacrylamide for oil recovery, and government regulations for wastewater treatment. The market was restrained by geo-political tensions, stringent regulations and environmental concerns over polyacrylamide.
Market Definition
Polyacrylamide (PAM) is an organic polymer formed from acrylamide subunits. It is produced with a simple, repeating, linear chain structure initially, but can be improved to form highly structured, branched, and cross-linked variants. It is used in various manufacturing and industrial processes.
The polyacrylamide market consists of sales of polyacrylamide by entities (organizations, sole traders, and partnerships) that manufacture polyacrylamide. Polyacrylamide is a synthetic resin produced by polymerizing acrylamide, it is a water-soluble polymer used to stabilize or form gels, and can be used as clarifying or thickening agent. Polyacrylamide is used across a wide range of applications but is mainly used for the separation of solids/liquids in the industrial and municipal wastewater sectors.
Market Size Forecasts
The global polyacrylamide market is expected to grow from $3.72 billion in 2020 to $3.95 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.98%. The growth in the polyacrylamide market is mainly due to the increased demand from water treatment industries, owing to the stringent regulatory actions against waste-water disposal and increasing concern towards the environment. The market is expected to reach $5.89 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 10.54%.
Competitive Landscape
The global polyacrylamide market is highly concentrated, with small number of large players dominating the market. The top ten competitors in the market made up to 55.11% share of the total market in 2020. Major players in the market include Ashland Inc., BASF SE, SNF Floerger Group, Kemira Oyj, Solvay, Petro China, Bluwat Chemicals, Black Rose Industries Ltd., Anhui Jucheng Fine Chemicals Co. Ltd., and Xitao Polymer Co Ltd.
