product type which accounted for over 45% of the market in 2014. Increasing
demand for linear alkyl benzene in cleaners and detergents on account of
profitable characteristics of products led to the high market share. Amphoteric
surfactant type is projected to witness the highest growth rate, at an
estimated CAGR of 4.9% from 2015 to 2022. Amphoteric surfactants are
extensively being used worldwide owing to their various properties such as
conditioning, bio degradability, foaming & foam stabilization and
detergency.
Surfactant application accounted for the
highest market share of over 40% in 2014. Growing product demand in detergents,
household cleaners and soaps accounted for the huge demand in home care
segment. Personal care application is forecasted to witness the highest growth
rate, at an anticipated CAGR of 5.0% from 2015 to 2022. The growing demand for
