[98 Pages Report] The phase transfer catalyst market is projected to grow from USD 960 million in 2018 to USD 1,232 million by 2023, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 5.1% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023. Rising demand and adoption of green chemistry in organic synthesis is the major factor driving the growth of the phase transfer catalyst market across the globe.
Phosphonium salts are a major type of quaternary onium salts. The phosphonium salts segment is projected to be second-largest type segment of the phase transfer catalyst market from 2018 to 2023. These salts are ionic compounds with the formula (R)4P+, where R is an organic group. Phosphonium salts are capable of tolerating high temperatures fluctuations. Methyl triphenyl phosphonium bromide, methyl triphenyl phosphonium chloride, ethyl triphenyl phosphonium bromide, ethyl triphenyl phosphonium chloride, and benzyl triphenyl phosphonium chloride are some of the phosphonium salts used as phase transfer catalysts. Phosphonium salts are expensive as compared to ammonium salts.
In the pharmaceuticals industry, compounds used for drugs are generally complex multifunctional molecules, which are built up by a sequence of chemical reactions. Phase transfer catalysts are used in the pharmaceuticals industry in synthesis, R&D, drug formulation, and laboratory applications. Moreover, the imposition of stringent regulations in the western regions on the use of harmful compounds in the pharmaceuticals industry is also leading to the increased consumption of phase transfer catalysts in the pharmaceuticals industry as they eliminate the requirement of using organic solvents and dangerous, inconvenient, and expensive reactants. These catalysts also reduce the generation of industrial wastes. The pharmaceuticals segment of the phase transfer catalyst market is projected to witness significant growth in the Asia Pacific region during the forecast period due to increased demand for these catalysts from emerging economies of the region.
The growth of the Asia Pacific phase transfer catalyst market is driven by the increased demand for these catalysts from countries such as China, Japan, Australia, South Korea, and India. Ongoing industrialization and flourishing end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals in emerging economies such as China and India are also driving the growth of the phase transfer catalyst market in the Asia Pacific region.
