Analysts’ Viewpoint on Bio-based Bisphenol-A Market Scenario
Rise in concern about harmful industrial processes and decrease in petroleum-based resources are driving the global bio-based bisphenol-A market. Bio-based bisphenol-A (BPA) is used in the production of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins. Polycarbonate plastic is employed in the manufacture of various consumer products such as food contact materials, toys, and medical devices. Increase in adoption of bio-based epoxy resins is expected to fuel the market during the forecast period. Bio-based epoxy resins are used in adhesives, paints & coatings, insulation, high-performance composites, and other industries. The market for bio-based BPA is still in the nascent stage, with a limited number of manufacturers operating worldwide. This is leading to high costs and limited availability of bio-based BPA. Thus, new companies are entering the market with significant investments in R&D activities.
Bio-based BPA is synthesized from lignin-derived aromatic compounds and bio-derived acetone in the presence of a catalyst. It is used in the production of bio-based polycarbonate plastics and novel bio-based epoxy resins with less fossil fuel-based carbon content. Bio-based BPA is largely incorporated as a monomer in a variety of polymers, namely polycarbonates, epoxy resins, polyethers, polysulfones, and polyesters. Polycarbonates are used to manufacture food & beverage containers, optical lenses, electronic & household appliances, safety helmets, telephones, automotive components, construction parts, medical equipment, and toys. Bio-based epoxy adhesives & sealants are primarily employed in the production of consumer and industrial coatings, paints, and adhesives.

Plastic is used to produce several personal care and daily life products. The widespread usage of plastics adversely impacts the environment. Plastics are hard to degrade and accumulate in the environment if discarded inappropriately. They may contain or release toxic components or volatile organic compounds that are harmful to human health and the habitat. Majority of plastics are manufactured from oil, which contributes to the rise in carbon footprint in the environment. Not all plastics can be recovered and reused, or have significant recycling economic value; therefore, they are liable to end up in landfills or oceans.
Governments and companies across the globe are striving to develop polycarbonate plastics from bio-derived phenol, acetone, and/or cumene to reduce plastic pollution. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDG 13 Climate Action, SDG 12 Responsible Consumption, and Production), the European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy, and the EPA Sustainable Materials Management Program Strategic Plan are some of the transnational strategies focused on developing a smart, innovative and sustainable plastics industry.
Recent bio-based bisphenol-A market trends suggest increase in R&D of bio-based polymers due to the rise in carbon emissions and depletion of petrochemical resources across the globe. Biomass-derived chemicals, including bio-based phenol and acetone, are used in the manufacture of bio-based BPA. Manufacturers are striving to replace petroleum-based materials with polymers derived from naturally-occurring feedstock to achieve their sustainable development goals. BPA is an oil-derived, large market volume chemical with a wide spectrum of applications in plastics, adhesives, and thermal papers. However, it is not considered safe due to its endocrine-disrupting properties and reproductive toxicity. Thus, there is a need to shift the focus toward sustainable alternatives to BPA. The best bio-based alternative for BPA is isosorbide, which is marketed under the trade name POLYSORB.

Europe is expected to dominate the global bio-based bisphenol-A market in terms of value by the end of 2022. The region is expected to remain highly lucrative during the forecast period. Growth of the market can be ascribed to rapid industrialization and implementation of stringent environmental regulations in the region. Asia Pacific is likely to follow Europe in terms of market growth during the forecast period. Increase in demand for bio-based BPA in China for the manufacture of polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins is fueling the market in Asia Pacific.
North America is projected to constitute 21.8% share of the global bio-based bisphenol-A market by the end of 2022. The market is driven by the rise in adoption of industrial automation and increase in technological reforms in the region. Latin America and Middle East & Africa are also likely to hold decent share of the global bio-based bisphenol-A market by the end of 2022.
The global bio-based bisphenol-A market is highly consolidated, with a small number of large-scale vendors controlling majority of the share. Most of the companies are investing significantly in comprehensive R&D activities to enhance their bio-based bisphenol-A market share. Expansion of product portfolios and mergers & acquisitions are key strategies adopted by prominent players. Covestro AG and Mitsui Chemicals Inc. are the key entities operating in the market.
These players have been profiled in the bio-based bisphenol-A market report based on parameters such as company overview, financial overview, business strategies, product portfolio, business segments, and recent developments.
