Pulping Chemicals Market, by PULPING PROCESS (Kraft Pulping Process, Soda Pulping Process, Sulfite Pulping Process) and, by CHEMICALS TYPE (Anthraquinone, Caustic Soda, Lime, Sulfuric Acid, Soda Ash, Sulfur Dioxide, Others): Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2023-2032

Pulping is a process of extracting cellulose from wood as well as other raw materials for paper making. The primary purpose of pulping is to convert wood into cellulose-free fibers. The chemicals used in pulping process are known as pulping chemicals. These chemicals are used in pulp to produce high-quality papers by allowing a better separation of cellulose fibers. Pulping chemicals are the integral part of chemical pulping process, which reduces the consumption of water and energy as compared to mechanical pulping.

A variety of chemicals are used in chemical pulping process such as caustic soda, sulfurous acid, and sodium sulfide. The demand for pulping chemicals is increasing due to surge in paperboard packaging applications. Moreover, factors such as increase in demand for paper recycling and rise in demand from the packaging industry are driving the growth of the global pulping chemicals market. However, high price, environmental hazards caused due to pulping chemicals, and implementation of stringent regulations on the use of chemicals are restraining the growth of the market. Conversely, broad research on pulping and paper quality enhancements is anticipated to offer future growth opportunity to the market.

The global pulping chemicals market is segmented into pulping process, chemical type, and region. On the basis of pulping process, the market is categorized into Kraft pulping process, soda pulping process, and sulfite pulping process. According to chemical type, it is classified into anthraquinone, sodium sulfate, sulfur, sodium sulfites, sulfur dioxide, soda ash, sulfuric acid, lime, caustic soda, and others.
