时尚潮流週期的缩短
随着社群媒体的出现,快时尚的受欢迎程度急剧上升。一般来说,时尚潮流从推出到过时的周期为20年,但社群媒体将週期缩短至12-30週。时尚品牌越来越多地在夏季和秋季推出多种新设计。平价品牌和奢侈品牌都越来越多地采用「即看即买」的方式,这意味着在时装秀上首次亮相的衣服几乎可以立即购买。
当前流行週期缩短的趋势意味着服装製造商必须全年不断生产大量服装,这增加了对两性醚化剂的需求。随着时尚週期不断变短,未来对两性醚化剂的需求只会增加。
造纸新科技创新
纸张製造商正在使用新材料和工艺来使纸张更加耐用、防水、防污以及不含化学物质的製造流程。例如,Nekoosa Coated Products 推出了一款新的抗菌纸,添加了 Bio Master 银离子技术,这是一种用于预防细菌的无毒、天然抗菌技术。
纸张所用油墨的配方也发生了变化,可以快速干燥并防止弄脏。科勒纸业集团最近推出了 Middle Sheet Reacto 无碳纸。纸张内夹有一层薄薄的颜色接收层,与上层纸张释放的颜色形成物质反应。中间的纸张还具有微胶囊涂层,因此可以使用创新的墨水技术在一张纸张上产生三份副本。
Eurocalco Digital 是 Lecta SA 的数位印刷应用的无碳纸系列。它重量轻,重量在 50-75 gsm 之间,并且由于经过特殊的油墨和纸张表面处理,可提供完全无污蹟的印刷。此纸张与各大品牌的喷墨和雷射印表机相容。
人们日益关注造纸污染
儘管纸张被定位为塑胶的环保替代品,但纸张生产也会产生一系列问题,其中最主要的是环境污染。造纸厂因排放硫化钠、硫化氢、甲硫醇和二氧化氯等有毒化合物而臭名昭着。然而,它们也对水污染造成重大影响。多项研究确凿证明造纸废水中含有致癌和致突变污染物。
由于水污染事件日益严重,许多政府对造纸厂采取了严格的措施。许多违反反污染法的工厂被关闭,而大多数工厂无力承担安装新污染控制技术所需的大量资本投资。严格的新防污染法规将在短期内减少对两性醚化剂的需求。
Overview
Global Amphoteric Etherifying Agents Market reached US$ 144.2 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 189.9 million by 2031, growing with a CAGR of 3.5% during the forecast period 2024-2031.
The growing substitution of plastic with paper-based alternatives will be a major factor in driving the demand for amphoteric etherifying agents during the forecast period. The application of new paper packaging products is also growing, which will boost the long-term growth prospects for the global market.
Ongoing changes in the global textile market will probably create difficult conditions for the future growth of the global market. Many garment exporters like Bangladesh are struggling and it has provided an opening for China to consolidate its position in the export market. The growing concentration of demand in China would be detrimental for the growth prospects of the global market.
Dynamics
Shortening of Fashion Trend Cycles
The fast fashion has witnessed a sharp increase in popularity following the advent of social media. Generally, fashion trends followed a 20 year cycle, from introduction to obsolescence, however, social media has shortened the cycle to 12-30 weeks. Fashion brands, are increasingly launching multiple new designs during the summer and fall seasons. Affordable and luxury brands are both increasingly adopting a 'see now, buy now' approach, which means that clothes that are debuted at fashion shows are almost immediately available for purchase.
The current trend of shortening fashion cycles means that clothing manufacturers have to constantly produce large volume of clothes throughout the year, which increases demand for amphoteric etherifying agents. As fashion cycles continue to become more shorter, it will only increase the demand for amphoteric etherifying agents in the future.
New Technological Innovations in Papermaking
Paper manufacturers are using new materials and processes to make paper more durable, water and dirt-resistant as well as chemical-free manufacturing processes. For instance, Nekoosa Coated Products had launched a new antimicrobial paper by adding bio master silver ion technology, a non-toxic, naturally occurring antimicrobial technology for bacterial prevention.
The formulation of the ink used in the paper is also changed to dry quickly and prevent smudging. Koehler Paper Group recently introduced the Middle Sheet Reacto carbonless paper. A thin color receiving layer is sandwiched within the paper which reacts with color-forming substances released by the upper sheet. The middle sheet also has a microcapsule coating, thus allowing a single sheet to generate three copies using innovative ink technology.
Eurocalco Digital is Lecta S.A.'s range of carbonless paper for digital printing applications. It has low weight, between 50-75 gsm and offers completely smudge-free printing due to special ink and paper surface treatment. The paper is compatible with every major brand of inkjet and laserjet printer.
Growing Concern About Pollution from Papermaking
Although paper is being positioned as an eco-friendly alternative to plastics, paper production generates its own set of problems, chief among which is environmental contamination. Paper mills are notorious for emitting toxic compounds like sodium sulfide, hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan and chlorine dioxide. However, they also contribute signficantly towards water pollution. Multiple studies have conclusively proved that papermill wastewater contains carcinogenic and mutagenic pollutants.
Alarmed by the growing incidence of water pollution, many governments have instituted strict measures for papermills. Many mills in violation of anti-pollution laws were shut down, whereas most mills couldn't afford the extensive capital investment needed to install new pollution control technologies. The strict new anti-pollution regulations will reduce demand for amphoteric etherifying agents in the short term.
The global amphoteric etherifying agents market is segmented based on type, application and region.
Papermaking is the Largest Application for Amphoteric Etherifying Agents
Among all applications, paper stands out due to the high amount of demand placed upon paper products globally. Developed and emerging countries alike are switching towards paper-based substitutes for plastic packaging. Even during the age of digitization, the demand for printing paper continues to increase steadily.
Textiles are also witnessing a surge in demand, though the overall figures are still lesser than the papermaking industry. The rise of fast-fashion trends has been one of the main reasons behind the spurt in demand for amphoteric etherifying agents from textile manufacturers. The rise of ethnic fashion trends is also another factor in raising demand.
Asia-Pacific Poised for Significant Growth During the Forecast Period
The papermaking industry will be the chief source of growth for amphoteric etherifying agents during the forecast period. India and China will be among the largest domestic markets for these agents, considering their well-established paper, textile and chemical industries. However, outside of big markets, the demand for amphoteric etherifying agents in Asia-Pacific has run into a crisis.
Bangladesh, one of the largest textile exporters in the region, has been faced with declining textile exporters due to an increase in natural gas prices and an overall increase in inflation. Many smaller garment manufacturers have gone bankrupt due to these difficult market conditions. The market demand for amphoteric etherifying agents will likely remain subdued over the short and medium term.
The pandemic created a major period of uncertainty for the global amphoteric etherifying agent market. Demand from the textile industry witnessed a major decline, as it was affected by pandemic lockdowns due to labor shortages and production disruptions. Paper manufacturers did witness a notable increase in demand, especially due to growing consumer interest in disposable paper-based hygiene products and cutlery.
Overall global demand witnessed a gradual and steady recovery in the aftermath of the pandemic. However, with the advent of the war in Ukraine, energy prices continued to remain high, thus leading to challenging market conditions for many end-users. How well these challenging conditions are addressed will determine the future course of the global market.
The Russia-Ukraine war created significant volatility in global energy prices which affected textile and paper production in developing countries. Much of the global production of these commodities is carried out in emerging nations that are dependent on energy imports. A steep increase in global energy prices raised input costs for local manufacturers, thus depressing demand for amphoteric modifying agents.
Chinese chemical and textile manufacturers have a huge amount of large spare capacity that can easily nullify the rise in input costs. If global energy markets witness a sustained period of high prices, it is likely that more and more of the textile and paper manufacturing capacity will shift from other emerging countries like India and Bangladesh to China.
The major global players in the market include Dongying Zeao Chemical Co., Ltd., Delin New Materials, Hefei TNJ Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., SKW Quab Chemicals, Shandong Guofeng Junda Chemical Technology Co., Ltd., Haihang Industry Co., Ltd, Sanyo Chemical Industries, Ltd., Dongying Nuoer Chemical Co., Ltd, Weifang Yukai Chemical Co., Ltd. and Wuxi Cima Science Co., Ltd.
The global amphoteric etherifying agents market report would provide approximately 53 tables, 43 figures and 182 Pages.
