Carbonate Market

The Global Carbonate Market Is Estimated To Propelled By Increased Use Of Eco-Friendly Polymers

by

Carbonate is a class of carbon-containing inorganic compounds derived from carbon dioxide. Commonly produced synthetic carbonates are used in various applications such as coating cosmetics and personal care products. Carbonates provide protection against UV radiation and have moisture retaining properties.

The global Carbonate Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 159.51 Mn in 2023 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 3.7% over the forecast period 2023 to 2030, as highlighted in a new report published by Coherent Market Insights.

Market key trends:

Increased use of eco-friendly polymers is propelling the carbonate market growth. Due to stringent regulations regarding plastic disposal and rising environment concerns, biodegradable polymers derived from carbonates are gaining traction. Carbonates can be incorporated into eco-friendly polymers to manufacture biodegradable plastic products such as shopping bags, food packaging, and 3D printing filaments. This trend is encouraging carbonate manufacturers to explore business opportunities and invest in R&D to cater to the growing demand for sustainable polymers.
