Middle East and Africa Butyric Acid Market Analysis and Size
Butyric acid is a type of fatty acid that is frequently used in the food, animal feed, and pharmaceutical industries. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of many chemicals, including esters, butanol, and butyl acetate. Animal feed is increasingly using butyric acid. For the production of various butyrate salts and glycerine esters, also known as butyrins, butyric acid serves as the primary raw material. With it is essential for animals, butyric acid is used to help them maintain their health. Butyric acid is advantageous to the animal feed industry because the right kind of feed is required to give animals nutrient-rich ingredients. Butyric acid-containing goods promote greater animal production, a balanced diet for animals, and better health.

Market Definition
Butyric acid, also known as butanoic acid, is a carboxylic acid that can combine with butanoates and butyrates to form salts and esters. It is frequently found in farm animals' milk, including that of goats, sheep, and buffalo. It tastes bitter and has an unpleasant odor. In order to produce butyric acid industrially, starch or sugar must be fermented with putrefying cheese added. Calcium carbonate is then added to balance the acids created during the fermentation process. Octyl butyrate and hexyl butyrate, respectively, of this fermented butyric acid are also found in hogweed oil and parsnip.
Middle East and Africa Butyric Acid Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Production of biofuels and bioplastics drives the market
Renewable biomass sources, including sugar cane, corn, and lignocellulosic materials, can be fermented to produce butyric acid. For the production of biofuels, which are renewable and have a lower carbon footprint than conventional fossil fuels, this makes it an ideal feedstock. A vital component in the creation of compostable or biodegradable bioplastics made from renewable biomass sources is butyric acid. Offering a substitute for conventional plastics is creating market expansion.
- Increasing use in medical field drives the market
Butyric acid can be used to treat inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. It has pro government properties. Butyric acid is being studied as a potential treatment for infections that are resistant to antibiotics because it has been demonstrated to have antibacterial properties. Butyric acid can be used to control gene expression and treat genetic disorders because it inhibits histone deacetylase.
Opportunities
- Food and beverage industry stimulates the market
The food and beverage industry uses butyric acid as a preservative and flavoring. Butyric acid has a growing market potential as a natural preservative and flavoring agent due to the rising demand for natural and organic products. Among the foods that butyric acid is used to flavor are baked goods, dairy products, and confectionery. It has a strong butter flavor. Butyric acid is additionally used to enhance the tenderness and texture of meat during processing. It can also benefit the market by enhancing the flavor of processed meats such as sausage and ham.
- Anti-inflammatory properties spur market expansion
Anti-inflammatory properties of butyric acid can aid in reducing skin inflammation, redness, and irritation. It lessens the inflammatory response by preventing the skin from releasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and other inflammatory mediators. It therefore functions well in skin care products for sensitive or inflamed skin, such as skin that is prone to acne or rosacea. Butyric acid, an adaptable substance, has many applications in skin care. It is a well-liked ingredient in skin care products due to its hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties. It is frequently blended with other ingredients to make products that target particular skin issues and encourage market growth.
Restraints/Challenges
- Acid-related odor can impede market expansion
Some plant oils and animal fats contain butyric acid, a naturally occurring fatty acid. The overwhelming smell of butyric acid is the main issue. It has an overtly rancid odor that can linger and be particularly offensive. This could cause problems in the locations where it is made or stored. Some people might find the smell and taste of butyric acid to be repulsive. With use of this, it might be challenging to use in certain applications, such as products for food and drink.
- Irritating to the skin and eyes impede the market growth
Even though butyric acid can irritate the skin and eyes, this is unlikely to prevent its increased use. Many industries, including the food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and agricultural ones, use butyric acid extensively. The development of butyric acid as a compound is more likely to be constrained by other elements, such as its poor stability, low solubility, and offensive flavor and odor. These qualities could make it less appealing to consumers and more challenging to use in some circumstances.
