各種醫療用途的不斷增加推動市場成長
作為一種用於預防輕微割傷、擦傷和燒傷感染的溫和防腐劑,對過氧化氫的需求不斷成長,對市場產生了積極影響。它也可以用作漱口水,以幫助去除黏液或緩解因潰瘍或唇皰疹和牙齦炎而引起的輕微口腔刺激。該產品的作用是在塗抹到受影響的區域時釋放氧氣並產生泡沫,這有助於去除死皮並清潔該區域。由於其揮發性會導致快速氧化,它還有助於傷口癒合。除此之外,過氧化氫也用於醫療應用,例如治療後天免疫缺乏症候群(愛滋病)、癌症、流感和肺氣腫。
報告涵蓋了市場結構、主要參與者的市場佔有率、參與者定位、最佳制勝策略、競爭儀表板和公司評估象限等競爭分析。此外,也提供了所有主要公司的詳細資料。市場結構分散,產業參與者多。由於最終用途行業的需求不斷成長以及產品差異化較低,過氧化氫行業的新進入者數量適中。然而,高資本投資和嚴格的監管框架阻礙了新參與者進入該行業。
什麼是過氧化氫?
過氧化氫(H2O2)是一種淡藍色化合物,呈透明液體,比水更黏稠。它本質上不穩定,因此通常儲存在帶有穩定劑的弱酸性溶液中。它具有強氧化性,因此是一種強效漂白劑,主要用於漂白紙張。過氧化脲形式的 H2O2 也可用於專業和自我管理產品中的牙齒美白。此外,它在宿主防禦和人體內氧化生物合成反應中發揮重要作用。由於 H2O2 被用作消毒劑和氧化劑,因此在全球的造紙和紙漿、化學、製藥、個人護理和化妝品、電子和農業行業中都有應用。
COVID-19大流行的爆發給過氧化氫產業帶來了嚴重的問題,給許多國家帶來了前所未有的挑戰。由於全球封鎖以及為了遵守政府指令,許多化學品生產工廠已經放慢了生產運作。鑑於該行業的大部分生產勞動力都從事無法遠端完成的現場工作,該行業很脆弱。此外,很少有正在運作的工廠面臨原料產業供應中斷、勞動力短缺和庫存不足的困擾。除此之外,航運和工業生產的限制也影響了供應鏈。此外,由於物流問題、人員短缺、缺乏司機和路障,企業已經放慢了生產速度。這些因素在疫情期間減緩了過氧化氫產業的成長。
目前,透過漂白過程去除氯化合物的漂白產品中對 H2O2 的需求增加。再加上擴大使用 H2O2 作為氧化劑用於多種水處理應用,這是支持市場成長的關鍵因素之一。此外,全球製漿造紙業對 H2O2 作為環保漂白劑的需求也在增加。再加上大眾對 H2O2 好處的認知不斷提高,正在推動市場的成長。此外,各國政府針對污染控制應用採取的多項措施正在加強市場的成長。除此之外,擴大使用 H2O2 來生產環氧丙烷 (HPPO) 技術,這提供了良好的市場前景。與此一致,食品和飲料 (F&B) 行業對 H2O2 生產安全衛生包裝的需求不斷成長,為行業投資者提供了利潤豐厚的成長機會。此外,農業中為提高作物產量而對 H2O2 的需求不斷成長正在推動市場的成長。此外,作為針對細菌、酵母、真菌、病毒和孢子等多種微生物的消毒劑,對 H2O2 的需求不斷成長,也推動了市場的成長。
The global hydrogen peroxide market size reached US$ 3.3 Billion in 2023.

The growing use in bleach products, rising application in several water treatment applications, and increasing demand in the agriculture industry to improve crop yield represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Rising Application in Various Medical Purposes Propelling Market Growth
The growing demand for hydrogen peroxide as a mild antiseptic used to prevent infection of minor cuts, scrapes, and burns is positively influencing the market. It may also be used as a mouth rinse to help remove mucus or to relieve minor mouth irritation due to canker or cold sores and gingivitis. This product works by releasing oxygen when it is applied to the affected area and causes foaming, which helps remove dead skin and clean the area. It also aids in healing wounds due to its volatile nature, which causes rapid oxidation. Apart from this, hydrogen peroxide is used in medical applications, such as treating acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), cancer, influenza, and emphysema.
Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report. Also, detailed profiles of all major companies have been provided. The market structure is fragmented with large number of players operating in the industry. The volume of new entrants is moderate in the hydrogen peroxide industry due to rising demand from end use industry and low product differentiation. However, high capital investment and strict regulatory framework prevent new players to enter the business.
What is Hydrogen Peroxide?
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a pale blue chemical compound with clear liquid, which is more viscous as compared to water. It is unstable in nature, due to which it is usually stored in a weak acidic solution with a stabilizer. It has strong oxidizing properties, thereby making it a powerful bleaching agent, which is largely used for bleaching paper. H2O2 in the form of carbamide peroxide also has applications for tooth whitening in professionally and self-administered products. In addition, it plays important roles in host defense and oxidative biosynthetic reactions in the human body. As it is used as a disinfectant and as an oxidizer, H2O2 finds applications in the paper and pulp, chemical, pharmaceutical, personal care and cosmetics, electronics, and agriculture industries across the globe.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has caused a severe problem for the hydrogen peroxide industry and imposed unprecedented challenges on numerous countries. Owing to the global lockdowns and in compliance with directives from the government, many chemical production plants have slowed down their manufacturing operations. The industry was vulnerable, given that the bulk of its production workforce was in on-site jobs that could not be done remotely. Moreover, few running plants were burdened with supply disruptions from the raw materials industry, labor shortages, and low stocks. Besides this, restrictions on shipping and industrial production have affected the supply chain. In addition, companies have slowed down production due to logistics issues, staffing shortages, lack of drivers, and roadblocks. These factors have slowed down the growth of the hydrogen peroxide industry during the pandemic.
At present, there is a rise in the demand for H2O2 in bleach products for removing chlorine compounds through bleaching processes. This, along with the increasing utilization of H2O2 as an oxidizing agent for several water treatment applications, represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. In addition, there is an increase in the demand for H2O2 as environment-friendly bleaching agents in the pulp and paper industry across the globe. This, coupled with the rising awareness among the masses about the benefits of H2O2, is propelling the growth of the market. Moreover, several initiatives undertaken by governments of various countries for pollution control applications are strengthening the growth of the market. Apart from this, the growing employment of H2O2 to produce propylene oxide (HPPO) technology is offering a favorable market outlook. In line with this, the escalating demand for H2O2 in the food and beverage (F&B) industry to manufacture safe and hygienic packaging is providing lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors. Additionally, the rising demand for H2O2 in the agriculture industry to improve crop yield is impelling the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing demand for H2O2 as a disinfectant against a wide range of microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, fungi, viruses, and spores, is bolstering the growth of the market.
