3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride is referred to as CHPTAC. C6H15Cl2NO is the molecular formula for CHPTAC, sometimes referred to as Liquid Cationic Etherification Agent. The molecular weight of CHPTAC is 188.10. The paper, petroleum, water treatment, the commodity chemical industry, and others all employ CHPTAC extensively.

When kept at 20 °C, CHPTAC is a colorless, clear fluid with a density of 1.16 and a PH range of 3.0-5.0. A fluid cationic etherification reagent, CHPTAC is a 69% water solution at ambient temperature. Due to its transparency, odourlessness, and impurity concentration of less than 25PPM, CHPTAC is favorable. CHPTAC is used in the cationization of starch, the production of carnitine sales, the quaternization of guar protein, and the synthesis of cellulose.

Historical (2018 to 2022) Vs. Forecast (2023 to 2033) Market Outlook

Over the period covered by the study (2018 to 2022), the market for CHPTAC was recorded to grow at a phenomenal CAGR of 4.1 % between 2018 and 2022, mostly due to the increasing demand for cationic reagents, emulsifiers from the personal care industry.

Whereas, as per the latest survey conducted by FMI, the CHPTAC market is expected to progress at a CAGR of 4.7 % between 2023 and 2033. Rising demand for CHPTAC from various end-use sectors includes paper, textiles, water treatment, oil & gas, and other industries (personal care, dye, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, and chemicals).

Market Dynamics

The usage of CHPTAC for Water Treatment.

CHPTAC is widely utilized in the water treatment infrastructure for the removal of contaminants. The cationic-modified flocculant CHPTAC is mostly preferred for wastewater treatment in developed and developing countries like the U.S., and China.

According to the China National Bureau of Statistics, China invested $81.6 billion between 2015 and 2020 in its municipal wastewater system, including new treatment facilities, sewage pipeline construction and maintenance, rainwater-sewage diversion systems, sludge mitigation, reclaimed water, and first rainfall treatment. Between 2021 and 2025, China intends to construct or upgrade 80,000 km of sewage collecting pipeline networks and boost sewage treatment capacity by 20 million cubic meters/day.

Therefore, the increasing use of CHPTAC wastewater treatment plants is anticipated to fuel market expansion.

Increasing demand from the Paper industry.

One of the key sectors propelling the CHPTAC market is the rising demand for paper and its products, as well as the fastest expansion paper industry. CHPTAC has a molecular weight of 188.10, which is extensively used by the paper industry.

The production of cationic starch, a binder, and paper reinforcement used in the paper industry to boost the dry strength of paper, is made possible by the use of CHPTAC. Therefore, CHPTAC's market is anticipated to develop as a result of the expansion of the paper industry.

Region-wise insights

How is North America faring in the global CHPTAC market?

North America is the leading CHPTAC consumer, holding the majority of shares approximately 35-40% in global revenue in 2023, Due to the United States' prominence in the paper sector, North America is expected to dominate over the projected period. The textile sector has seen a substantial increase in demand for CHPTAC due to its effectiveness as a liquid cationic etherification agent.

In the North American textile industry, the United States is a significant market. In the worldwide textile sector in 2019, more than 41% of exports came from North America as a whole. CHPTAC's increasing use as a flocculent in the water treatment industry and the rising demand for water treatment facilities are likely to generate lucrative market opportunities.

The personal care sector uses CHPTAC as a cationic reagent as well. Therefore, it is anticipated that throughout the course of the projection period, demand for CHPTAC would rise as a consequence of the expansion of the personal care sector and all these market developments would fuel the region's demand for CHPTAC throughout the forecast period.

What are the prospects for the CHPTAC market in the Asia-Pacific region?

The CHPTAC market was dominated by Asia Pacific with a share of more than 45%, followed by North America and Europe. The CHPTAC market in Asia Pacific is anticipated to grow over the course of the forecast period due to the presence of major international CHPTAC manufacturers within this region.

The market for sludge treatment chemicals in china is expanding as a result of the large number of wastewater treatment facilities that are operating alongside other production plants.

It is anticipated that increased use of CHPTAC as a flocculant in the water treatment sector would lead to several market possibilities. Water treatment plant demand is expected to increase globally, opening up lucrative market potential in Asia Pacific Region.
