Methyl Acetate Market Trends:

Increasing Production of Automotive Vehicles

The growing production of automotive vehicles is driving the market’s growth. For instance, according to an article published by India Brand Equity Foundation, in June 2024, the total production of passenger vehicles, three-wheelers, two-wheelers, and quadricycles was nearly 23,36,000. In fiscal year 2024, the total production of passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, three-wheelers, two-wheelers, and quadricycles was approximately 2,84,34,000 units. These vehicles are major consumers of paints, coatings, and adhesives, driving the demand for methyl acetate. These factors are expected to propel the methyl acetate market’s recent price in the coming years.

Surging Demand for Personal Care Products

The growing beauty and personal care product industry is a significant driver of the methyl acetate market. For instance, according to IMARC, the global beauty and personal care products market size reached US$ 506.2 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 759.3 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.5% during 2024-2032. Methyl acetate is commonly used as a solvent in personal care products such as nail polish removers, hair sprays, perfumes, and other cosmetic products. Its ability to dissolve resins, oils, and fragrances makes it a popular ingredient in the formulation of these products. These factors further positively influence the methyl acetate market forecast.

Regulatory Approvals

Regulatory approvals for the use of methyl acetate in various industries, including food and pharmaceuticals, have expanded its market potential. For instance, according to an article published by the Government of Canada, the EU permits methyl acetate to be used as a flavoring agent in food (EU Food Flavorings Database), and it is classified in the Register of Flavoring Substances. Compliance with environmental and safety standards has also driven its adoption as a safer alternative to more toxic solvents, thereby boosting the methyl acetate market revenue.

Global Methyl Acetate Industry Segmentation:

IMARC Group provides an analysis of the key trends in each segment of the global methyl acetate market, along with forecasts at the global, regional, and country levels from 2024-2032. Our report has categorized the market based on purity and end use.

Breakup by Purity:

Methyl Acetate Market By Purity

  • Purity Less Than 99.5%
  • 99.5% Purity
  • 99.9% Purity
     

99.9% purity represented the largest segment

The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the methyl acetate market based on the purity. This includes purity less than 99.5%, 99.5% purity, and 99.9% purity. According to the report, 99.9% purity represented the largest segment.

According to the methyl acetate market outlook, in pharmaceutical and medical applications, the use of high-purity chemicals is critical to avoid contamination and ensure safety in drug formulation and manufacturing. Methyl acetate with 99.9% purity is often required for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), intermediates, and other drug compounds. Moreover, the semiconductor and electronics industries demand ultra-high purity solvents like 99.9% methyl acetate for use in precision cleaning, lithography, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes.

Breakup by End Use:

  • Paints and Coatings
  • Inks
  • Personal Care Industry
  • Others
     

Paints and coatings accounted for the largest market share

A detailed breakup and analysis of the methyl acetate market based on the end use has also been provided in the report. This includes paints and coatings, inks, personal care industry, and others. According to the report, paints and coatings accounted for the largest market share.

According to the methyl acetate market overview, methyl acetate is a fast-evaporating solvent, which makes it ideal for use in quick-drying paints and coatings. Its ability to evaporate quickly enhances productivity in industrial painting processes, where drying time is a critical factor. Moreover, it effectively dissolves various resins, oils, and other compounds used in paints and coatings, ensuring a smooth, consistent application. This makes it particularly useful in formulating lacquers, enamels, and wood coatings.
