The acrylamide market is expected to grow from US$ 4,254.16 million in 2021 to US$ 6,500.22 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.2% from 2021 to 2028.

Acrylamide is an organic and odorless chemical that is available in liquid and crystalline forms. Acrylamide is soluble in water and various organic solvents. It is a precursor to polyacrylamides that have several applications as water-soluble thickeners and flocculation agents.

In 2020, Asia Pacific dominated the global acrylamide market and is expected to retain its dominance during the forecast period. Japan and China are major manufacturers of acrylamide, accounting for a significant portion of the global installed capacity. The increased government support for wastewater treatment in countries such as India and China, and the growing personal care & cosmetic industry in the region are driving the growth of the market in the Asia Pacific. The personal care industry in the region is growing due to the rising middle-income population, increasing per capita income, improving living standards, and an increase in working women population. Thus, the growing personal care industry has led to increasing demand for acrylamide, as it is widely used as a stabilizer, binder, and thickener in cosmetics & personal care products. Along with this, North America is expected to be the second-fastest-growing region which is due to increase investment in wastewater treatment as well as an increase in demand for acrylamide from the ehanced oil recovery and cosmetics sector. Europe is also expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period.
