Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/25/2017 -- Transparency Market Research has published a new report titled "Cellulose Acetate Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2015 - 2023." According to the report, the global cellulose acetate market was valued at US$4.88 bn in 2014 and is anticipated to reach US$ 6.72 Bn in 2023, expanding at a CAGR of 3.6% between 2015 and 2023.

High demand for cellulose acetate in cigarette filters due to rise in consumption of cigarettes and apparel consumption in developing regions, especially Asia Pacific, has been driving the cellulose acetate market during the past comuple of years. Cellulose acetate is primarily employed in cigarette filters, textile & apparel, and extrusion & molding applications. Increase in disposable income and changes in lifestyle of consumers in developing countries such as China, Brazil, Indonesia, and India are projected to fuel demand for cigarettes, textiles, and plastics. This, in turn, is expected to boost demand for cellulose acetate due to its eco-friendly attributes. Consumption of cellulose acetate in eyewear frames and food packaging applications is likely to drive the cellulose acetate market during the forecast period. However, volatility in prices of raw materials and growing health awareness among consumers against cigarette consumption in developed regions are estimated to restrain market growth during the forecast period.
