The study undertaken by Astute Analytica foresees a growth in revenue of the Global Acetonitrile Market from US$ 353 Mn in 2021 to US$ 482.9 Mn by 2027. The market is estimated to register a growth at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period 2022-2027. In terms of volume, the market is estimated to grow from 1,26,135.8 tons in 2021 to 1,76,380.6 tons by 2027, registering a CAGR of 5.7% during 2022-2027. The market growth is attributed to factors such as rising demand from the pharmaceutical industry, high consumption in production of epoxy hardeners and agrochemicals, and extensive adoption as organic solvent in HPLC applications. Acetonitrile is used to extract fatty acids and animal and vegetable oils. It is also used in petrochemical industries for extractive distillation and as a solvent for spinning synthetic fiber and in casting and molding plastics. In the laboratory, acetonitrile is used in high-performance liquid chromatographic HPLC analysis and as a solvent for DNA synthesis and peptide sequencing. Furthermore, acetonitrile finds extensive application in batteries, particularly lithium-ion batteries, to enable next-generation high-power and energy-density lithium-ion batteries, which provides extraordinarily high-ionic conductivity. However, availability of substitutes like Prionil and the health concerns associated with acetonitrile poses a challenge to the Global Acetonitrile Market.
