The global modacrylic fiber market was valued at $550.0 million in 2021, and is projected to reach $866.4 million by 2031, growing at a CAGR of 4.7% from 2022 to 2031.
Modacrylic fiber is also known as modified acrylic fiber and synthetic acrylic fiber that exhibits less than 85%, but at least 35% of the weight of acrylonitrile monomer fiber. It possesses various functionalities, such as it is a soft material, resilient, has strong tenacity, resistant to heat, chemicals, corrosion, and sunlight, and retentive in shapes. Owing to such properties, it has a wide range of applications. It can withstand high temperatures that make them suitable for thermal insulation and heat stabilization applications in various end-use industries, such as automotive, industrial, medical, mining, extraction, petrochemicals, and others.
The factors such as rise in industrialization, increase in disposable income among people has surged the demand modacrylic fiber. Modacrylic fiber is resistant to flame and corrosion due to which they are widely in petroleum, mining & extraction, and manufacturing plants of chemicals in the form of protective clothing. This is predicted to propel the growth of the modacrylic fiber market.
However, stringent rules and regulations are set by the U.S. National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) on use of acrylonitrile production and recycling issues. In addition to this, lack of awareness among people, growing competition in the protective apparel sector, and rise in prices of raw materials hampered the growth of the market. These factors are responsible for the downfall of the growth of the modacrylic fiber market.
The rapid increase in the population, rise in import and export of luxurious and comfortable wooden furniture, up-gradation in technology, and less investment for an upholstered factory of furniture has led the demand for modacrylic fibers. Modacrylic fibers are highly fire & corrosion resistant and have high durability, thus, are widely used in upholstery sectors in soft furnishings and in cushions. These factors are anticipated to offer remunerative opportunities for the modacrylic fiber market during the forecast period.
The modacrylic fiber market is segmented on the basis of type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is categorized into medical grade and industrial grade. On the basis of application, it is divided into protective apparel, hair fiber, upholstery, modacrylic pile, and others. Region-wise, the market is studied across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA.
