Acetic acid is a colorless compound produced by the fermentation or oxidation of natural carbohydrates. Also known as ethanoic acid, acetic acid is widely utilized as a cleaning agent in households. Moreover, it is used to produce volatile organic acetate, metal acetate, and vinyl acetate monomer (VAM).

Acetic acid is widely utilized in the production of greases, coatings, polyesters and sealants, which find extensive applications in numerous industries, such as electronics, automobiles, textiles and packaging. The extensive growth in these industries represents one of the major factors driving the market growth in the Asia Pacific region. Moreover, as acetic acid is used in the manufacturing of vinegar, a rise in the consumption of the condiment is strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, leading players are investing in research and development (R&D) projects to reduce the energy consumption while producing the acid and minimize the overall operating costs.
