Market Insight

Glycerol is colorless, odorless, viscous, and non-toxic alcohol. It is most commonly known as glycerin. It is generally obtained from plant and animal sources. It is a material of outstanding utility with many areas of application such as food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. It is mainly used in the production of value-added chemical products. The valuable emollient and demulcent properties of glycerol makes it an important ingredient in innumerable pharmaceutical and cosmetic preparations.

 

Glycerol finds application among a broad diversity of end uses. The growing demand for glycerol from the end-use industries is the primary factor for the growth of the glycerol market. The chemical industry uses glycerol in the manufacture of antifreeze and sealing compounds. Glycerol is used in the pharmaceutical industry to extract and prevent inert materials from precipitating upon standing. It is used as a moistening agent for baked goods and is also added to candies and icings to prevent crystallization. Glycerol is used as a solvent for food colors and carriers for extracts and flavoring agents.

 

The growing demand for cosmetic products containing glycerin owing to the growing awareness about its several beauty benefits boosts the growth of the glycerol market.
