Glucaric acid (C6H10O8), also known as polyhydroxy dicarboxylic acid or saccharic acid, is a naturally occurring compound found in various fruits or vegetables, such as oranges, apples, grapes, broccoli, and cabbage. It is also produced by the human body as a metabolite. It aids in improving liver health by eliminating toxic substances from the liver and reducing oxidative stress. It also helps protect against liver damage caused by alcohol consumption and other harmful substances. Its consumption can inhibit the production of beta glucuronidase in the body and minimize the risks of developing cancer. It is used in the manufacturing of bio based chemicals and other derivatives, such as potassium glucarate, sodium glucarate, calcium D-glucarate, and D-glucaric acid lactone.
Due to increasing environmental concerns among the masses, governing agencies of numerous countries are undertaking measures to promote the use of sustainable products. This represents one of the major factors driving the demand for C6H10O8 around the world. Moreover, the rising use of C6H10O8 in cleaning products, such as laundry detergents and dishwashing detergents, on account of its ability to remove hard water stains and prevent buildup, is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, there is an increase in the use of C6H10O8 in the production of personal care and cosmetic products, such as shampoo, conditioner, facial cleanser, toners, moisturizers, sunscreen, foundations, powder, face wash, body wash, and scrubs. It also acts as a chelating agent, which helps remove impurities and improve the skin texture. This, coupled with the growing demand for premium quality personal care and cosmetic products on account of the rising physical consciousness among individuals, is influencing the market positively. Apart from this, there is an increase in the utilization of C6H10O8 as a food additive and flavoring agent for the preparation of various food products and beverages, including fruit juices, protein bars and powders, and sports drinks. This, along with the thriving food and beverage (F&B) industry, is propelling the growth of the market. Furthermore, the growing usage of C6H10O8 in the agricultural industry as a plant growth promoter and fertilizer is creating a favorable outlook for the market.
