Portland, OR -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/12/2018 -- Bio Plasticizers Market Overview:

Global Bio Plasticizers Market was valued at $1,364 million in 2015, and is expected to reach $1,709 million by 2022, registering a CAGR of 3.3% from 2016 to 2022. Bio plasticizers are polymer additives meant for improving flexibility, softness, workability, and volatility of the plasticized materials. These are based on renewable resources and produced from vegetable raw materials such as soybean, palm, castor oil, citrates, stearic acid, and starch. They may be internal or external based on the kind of modifications done to the materials to which they are added. Bio plasticizers are available as different types in market among which epoxides and castor oil based types (sebacates & glycerol esters) are highly adopted. They can replace phthalates in toys, food packaging, medical devices, and personal care products as phthalates are banned by different government in these commodities.

Rise in demand for flexible PVC in different applications, ban imposed on certain plasticizers, and growth in number of packaging industries drive the global bio plasticizers market. Asia-Pacific dominates the market, in terms of volume & growth, due to massive demand and production in China as well as high developing rate of the market in India & other countries. High pricing of bio plasticizers is expected to limit the market growth during the forecast period. Continuous innovation in bio plasticizers resulting in generation of its superior form with lesser cost and R&D activities for producing new applications by different market players are projected to provide numerous opportunities for development of the bio plasticizers market.
