• Growing Demand for Diketene Derivatives from Pharmaceutical and Nutraceutical Industries
  • The pharmaceutical industry has witnessed significant growth across geographies. For instance, India holds a leading position in global generic drug exports. Indian pharmaceutical exports reached more than USD 17 million in 2018. Furthermore, economic growth in emerging countries is also supporting the growth of the pharma industry.
  • Diketene derivatives are majorly consumed in the pharmaceutical industry in India. Thus, growth of the pharmaceutical industry and the increasing number of API units in India are collectively expected to boost the demand for diketene derivatives, and, as such, drive its market growth.
• Surge in the Demand for Diketene Derivatives from the Agrochemical Industry
  • World population accounted for around 7.6 billion in 2017. The percent change in population was 1.12% in 2016-2017. High population growth has fueled food consumption, globally. The use of agrochemicals has become necessary to meet the growing demand for food, as they play an important role in increasing production yield by preventing pests and weeds, and fertilizing the soil.
  • This has resulted in a significant hike in the production of agrochemicals across the globe. Also, agrochemicals are one of the key applications of diketene derivatives that consume a significant share of the market. Hence, this factor is expected to drive the growth of the diketene derivatives market.
• Increasing Demand for Diketene Derivatives from the Pigments and Dyes Industry
  • The global pigment industry was pegged at around USD 23 Billion in the year 2016, and is expected to grow further in the coming years. Out of this, organic pigments account for around 22% of the total market value.
  • Diketene derivatives are extensively used in the production of organic pigments such as diarylide and arylide yellow. Therefore, growth of the pigment industry is expected to create significant demand for diketene derivatives, as such, driving the growth of the global diketene derivatives market.
