Carbolic acid (C6H5OH), also known as phenol, is a volatile, flammable, and white crystalline aromatic organic compound. It is extracted naturally from coal tar and can be produced synthetically using the hock process, oxidation of benzene, and hydrolysis of chlorobenzene. Carbolic acid is widely used to produce plastics, drugs, chemicals, household cleaners, disinfectants, dyes, and textiles. As compared to other hydrocarbons, carbolic acid is mildly acidic, easily soluble in water, and forms stronger hydrogen bonding. It also eliminates germs in a wound, reduces the severity of infections, and increases the chance of survival. As a result, carbolic acid finds extensive applications across the pharmaceutical, healthcare, chemical, cosmetics, plastics, and textile industries.
The rising product utilization for manufacturing plastics is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. Carbolic acid is widely used to produce plastic precursors, such as bisphenol-A and phenolic resins, that are used in the production of polycarbonates, epoxy, and Bakelite. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of carbolic acid in the healthcare industry as an antiseptic and antimicrobial agent to sterilize surgical instruments, prevent infections, and treat ingrown toes and fingernails is providing a considerable boost to the market growth. In addition to this, increasing product application in the pharmaceutical sector as an oral analgesic to treat pharyngitis, spray for sore throat, and preservative in vaccines to prevent bacterial growth is creating a positive outlook for the market. Apart from this, the rising usage of carbolic acid to manufacture various household products, such as floor cleaners, detergents, mouthwash, ink, soap, and disinfectants, is positively influencing the market growth. Additionally, the introduction of sustainable manufacturing processes that utilize renewable and recycled materials, such as plastics, waste products, and biomass, which, in turn, minimizes ecological footprint and reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, is facilitating the market growth. Moreover, the widespread product adoption as an industrial cleaner for machinery parts and electronic devices is providing an impetus to the market growth. Other factors, including increasing product utilization to produce nylon and phenoxy herbicides and the widespread utilization of the compound in molecular biology, are anticipated to drive market growth.
