8 March 2019: Lignosulfonates
Market is expected to witness considerable growth in the
forecast period owing to the worldwide explosive demand of lignosulfonates from
the construction industry. Lignosulfonates are water-soluble anionic
polyelectrolyte polymers. They are derived from the production of wood pulp
with sulfite pulping. The wood is mainly composed of three components as
hemicellulose, cellulose, and lignin.
During the sulfite pulping procedure, the lignins are
water-soluble and sorted as insoluble cellulose and soluble cellulose. The
separated soluble lignins are known as lignosulfonates. Lignosulfonates are
greatly versatile and hold wide range of industrial applications. Although
lignosulfonates are commonly associated with construction of public roads &
dust control, they are also used as dispersants, emulsifiers, and binders, in
several products like gypsum board, micronutrients and animal fodder pellets.

The increase in demand for lignosulfonates from animal
fodder industry is one of the major driving factors for the growth of market
and is predicted to continue growing in future as well. Additionally, the
speedy growth in construction industry is estimated to boost market in future.
On the contrary, the probable threat from product substitutions is expected to
hamper the growth of lignosulfonates market in the years to come. However, the
increase in demand for animal fodder binder especially from emerging economies
is anticipated to create favorable opportunities for the market players globally.
Polycarboxylic ether, sulfonated naphthalene formaldehyde
and sulfonated melamine formaldehyde are stiff competition and substitution to
lignosulfonates market in application industries like animal fodder binders and
oil well additives. Moreover, there are several animal fodder binders with
bentonite & clay, guar meal & starch, wheat. Synthetic binders like
urea-formaldehyde might affect the growth of market negatively in the coming
years. Nevertheless, the growing oil production in Middle East & Africa is
predicted to boost progressively in near future, thereby driving the
lignosulfonates market.
Lignosulfonates are added in cement to produce high-quality
concrete. It helps in enhancing the cement and concrete quality. Demand for
lignosulfonates is predicted to grow in concrete admixtures application
industry due to the increasing investments in infrastructure segment. This
trend is expected to increase infrastructure investments globally. The adoption
of ecofriendly products is on the rise due to various initiatives by
governments across the globe. Depletion of natural resources ad global warming
are the reason for the rising focus on environment-friendly products. The
growing use of concrete admixtures in construction industry is also stimulating
lignosulfonates market.
Geographically, market is segmented as North America, Latin
America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. Owing to the
growth in population and industrialization, North America followed by Europe
are expected to lead the demand for lignosulfonates in future. The prominent
players in lignosulfonates market comprise Borregaard LignoTech, Sappi Limited,
Tembec Inc., Nippon Paper Industries Co. Ltd., and Burgo Group.
