Brazil Bio-Acrylic Acid Market

Brazil Bio-Acrylic Acid Market Overview:

The Brazil bio-acrylic acid market size reached USD 9.96 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 56.20 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 19.57% during 2025-2033. The market Brazil bio-acrylic acid market share is expanding, driven by the increasing focus on the adoption of bio-based solutions to address the ongoing environmental issues and lower carbon footprints, along with the high availability of bio-based feedstock, which minimizes the production costs and enables high-volume manufacturing.

Brazil Bio-Acrylic Acid Market Overview:

Heightened Emphasis on Production of Bio-Based Polymers

The rising focus on the production of bio-based polymers is impelling the Brazil bio-acrylic acid market growth. The requirement for bio-based polymers, utilized in items, such as superabsorbent polymers for hygiene products, is significantly escalating, as companies are actively striving to lower dependency on fossil fuels, which are known for generating pollution and prompting climate change. For instance, in July 2023, Braskem announced a 30% capacity expansion of its bio-based ethylene plant in Brazil's Triunfo Petrochemical Complex, following an investment of USD 87 Million. This initiative supported the company's goal of manufacturing 1 Million Tons of biopolymers by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. Consequently, efforts to enhance biopolymers manufacturing are driving the bio-acrylic acid demand in the country. Moreover, as such conventional energy sources emit harmful greenhouse gases, key sectors are currently adopting bio-based alternatives to control their impact on environment. In addition, the Brazilian government’s growing emphasis on endorsing bio-based solutions to address the ongoing environmental issues has further incentivized the employment of bio-acrylic acid in polymer production.

Rapid Expansion of Bio-based Feedstock Availability

The significant scaling of bio-based feedstock availability is offering a favorable Brazil bio-acrylic acid market outlook. The country’s robust agricultural industry provides excess raw materials, mainly like sugarcane, which are requisite for the production of bio-acrylic acid. According to the USDA Foreign Agriculture Service, Brazil's sugarcane fields achieved exceptional performance in the marketing year April 2023 to March 2024, reaching a record manufacturing of 705 Million Metric tons. As a result, this escalated availability of bio-based feedstock substantially reduces the production costs and facilitates high-volume manufacturing. In addition, Brazil's heavy investments in biorefineries and innovations in biotechnological operations are leading to high production of bio-acrylic acid. Furthermore, this trend is notably establishing Brazil as a competitive region for bio-based chemical production, attracting international as well as domestic players in the industry.

Increasing Application in Adhesives and Coatings

A notable expansion is being observed in the adoption of bio-acrylic acid across Brazil’s coating and adhesive sector, which is driven by rising implementation of environmental regulatory policies and shift toward sustainability and green products. As per industries reports, in 2023, 81% of people showed strong concerns about environmental sustainability in Brazil, with 16% willing to pay a premium for sustainable items, placing sustainability among their top purchasing criteria. Bio-acrylic acid’s unique attributes, such as excellent versatility and durability, position it as an ideal alternative for producers actively seeking to reduce their dependency on petrochemical-based derivatives. In addition, the high requirement for bio-based adhesives in key industries like automotive and packaging is supporting this trend. Furthermore, as Brazilian manufacturers shift towards sustainable materials, the bio-acrylic acid market is anticipated to witness further expansion in its applications in environmentally conscious adhesives and coatings.
