The brassylic acid market was valued at US$ 683.9 Mn in 2022 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 4.65%, in terms of revenue over the forecast period (2023-2030), to reach US$ 984.1 Mn by 2030. Companies operating in the brassylic acid market are focusing on adopting various strategies and innovative sustainable production processes for fragrances. For instance, in 2012, International Flavors & Fragrances (IFF), a U.S.-based company that manufactures flavors and fragrances, reduced usage of water by 10% per metric ton of fragrance production from 2007.
Brassylic Acid Market: Growth Factors
Rising applications of brassylic acid in various end use industries
The demand for brassylic acid is expected to increase over the forecast period, owing to rising applications of brassylic acid in various end use industries such as fragrances & perfumes, lubricants, and adhesives coupled with important use in the formation of polyurethanes, alkyd resins, and polyamides. Moreover, it is used as monomers for certain co-polymers such as nylon 13,13. Various diesters of brassylic acid are incorporated into PVC (Polyvinal Chloride)and are used as plasticizers. These derivatives of brassylic acid possess the property to remain stable at low-temperature conditions. Di-cyclohexyl brassylate (a derivative of brassylic acid) has properties similar to those shown by bis-3-Ethylhexyl phthalate, which is the most widely used plasticizer in moderate-temperature applications.

Nylon is manufactured with brassylic acid
Nylon that is manufactured with brassylic acid has low moisture absorption capability, which is suitable for applications that require toughness, retention of strength, abrasion resistance, and electrical properties under changing climatic conditions. Furthermore, the properties of nylon 1313, which is manufactured using brassylic acid is similar to that of commercially produced polyamides such as nylon 11, 12, 610, and 612. These factors are expected to drive demand for brassylic acid over the forecast period.
Brassylic Acid Market: Market Restraints
Availability of substitutes and its potential to cause health problems
Brassylic acid is majorly used in the fragrance industry for the synthesis of macrocyclic musk, however, other musk compounds such as nitro musk and polycyclic musk compounds are readily available in the market. Moreover, direct contact with brassylic acid can cause skin and eye irritation and is expected to cause respiratory problems. The availability of substitutes and their potential to cause health problems are expected to hamper the growth of the market over the forecast period.
