    Market Insights

    Chelating agents are chemical substances that form stable complexes with metal ions. They are often referred to as chelants or sequestering agents. These substances can bind to metal ions and stop any undesirable reactions. Chelating compounds are used in various fields, including water treatment, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage production, pulp and paper production, and industrial and domestic cleaning. They are used to soften water, remove metal ions, stabilize formulations, increase the potency of detergents, and act as additives in various procedures.

    Chelating agents are increasingly being used in emerging countries, and developments in this market include the manufacturing of bio-based chelating agents for dealing with environmental issues, the introduction of specialist chelating agents for particular uses, and the development of chelating agents based on specific biomolecules. In addition, it is anticipated that market dynamics will be significantly influenced by regulatory requirements and policies pertaining to environmental protection and water treatment. The COVID pandemic impacted value chains in the chelating agent market. However, market demand bounced back in 2021 and is expected to grow further in the coming years.

    Overall, the market for chelating agents is anticipated to maintain an upward trajectory in the years to come, propelled by elements like industrialization, urbanization, and rising environmental awareness. To meet the varying needs of various industries, market participants will keep investing in research and development to introduce innovative and long-lasting chelating agents. It is also estimated that the market for chelating agents is likely to grow at a CAGR of 4.5% during 2023-28.
