<strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> <strong>Acid</strong> <strong>Market</strong><br />

<strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> <strong>Acid</strong> <strong>Market</strong> <strong>Explores</strong> <strong>New</strong> <strong>Growth</strong> <strong>Opportunities</strong> <strong>By</strong> <strong>2017</strong>-<strong>2027</strong><br />

<strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid is commonly known as HIBA or Acetonic acid. <strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid can be used<br />

for the synthesis of polymer, resins, adhesives, etc. and acts as a thickening agent in paint, or ink additive<br />

and cosmetics, emollient and skin conditioning agent in skin care and cosmetic products as well as in<br />

numerous pharmaceutical drugs. Nowadays, industries are shifting towards eco-friendly manufacturing<br />

and the renewable biomass is used for the production of many green chemicals through environment<br />

friendly processes. In future, <strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid may be the raw material for chemical industries,<br />

which are now dependent on petroleum.<br />

<strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid possesses antimicrobial properties and hence, it is an important constituent in the<br />

synthesis of penicillin G salt. <strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid is also used for the manufacturing ofisochromanes,<br />

which is used in a wide variety of pharmacological activities. <strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid is considered as a<br />

building block of polymer synthesis. <strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid finds its applications as a processing agent for<br />

rubber, as an oiling agent for textiles, as a flavouring agent in food industry and lubricant for plastics.<br />

<strong>Hydroxyisobutyric</strong> acid is also used as an electrolyte for detection and separation of the metal ions by online<br />

cyclic voltammetry. Now, the production of polymers and other materials are mainly done from fossil<br />

feedstock i.e. petroleum-based hydrocarbons. 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid (2-HIBA) can be a substitute to<br />

these petroleum based hydrocarbons. Now, it is being used as a pharmaceutical intermediary and<br />

complex-forming agent for actinide heavy metals and lanthanide.<br />
