The India acid chloride market import shipment experienced a significant decline with a CAGR of -24.3% from 2020 to 2024. The growth rate between 2023 and 2024 further plummeted by -50.6%, indicating a sharp contraction in market activity. The market exhibited a clear trend of rapid deceleration and contraction over the period, reflecting a substantial downturn in imports.
Acid chlorides are organic compounds that contain one or two chlorine atoms. They can be derived from carboxylic acids by replacing the hydroxyl group with a chlorine atom, creating an acyl chloride functional group (RCOCl). Acid chlorides have a wide range of applications in chemical synthesis and industrial processes. One of the most important uses is as an intermediate for producing other organic chemicals such as amides, esters, thioesters and nitriles.
The growth of the India acid chloride market is driven by several factors including increasing demand for intermediates in various pharmaceuticals products, rising number of companies focusing on research and development activities to produce new types of products from this compound, higher usage as raw material in coating industry due to its high solubility characteristics along with environmental friendliness. Additionally, enhanced application opportunities in manufacturing detergents & cleaning agents coupled with growing production capacity has resulted into robust development over past few years.
Certain challenges like stringent regulations regarding storage and disposal due to its corrosive nature may hamper revenue generation potential during forecast period across India region. Furthermore volatility in feedstock prices along with availability issues will further impact business expansion plans for manufacturers operating within this sector
Some key players operating within India acid chloride market include Central Drug House (India) Pvt Ltd., Sisco Research Laboratories Private Limited., Gujarat Alkalies & Chemicals Limited., Oxford Lab Fine Chem Private Limited , Loba chemie pvt ltd etc.. These companies offer broad portfolio ranging from acetyl chloride to phosphoryl dichloride while also covering comprehensive selection of reagents used widely across R&D laboratories at universities and educational institutions around country which attributes towards their brand loyalty amongst end use customers.
The Covid 19 pandemic has disrupted supply chains resulting into significant price rise associated with raw materials required for these molecules. This combined effect has led towards curtailment of product availability coupled with sharp increase on pricing front leading manufacturer???s difficulties associated cost management especially when dealing with low margin items such as these. However gradual recovery path anticipated post 2025 should result back normalcy on both fronts thus reviving sales activity during latter half year 2022 or early 2025.
