Sodium Hypochlorite Market by Application and by End Use, Global Opportunity Analysis and Forecast, 2020 - 2027

              Sodium Hypochlorite Market

Sodium hypochlorite, sometimes known as liquid bleach, is a popular home chemical that is used as a bleaching agent or disinfectant all over the world. When dissolved in water, the chemical easily decomposes, releasing chlorine, and is thus widely used as a disinfectant and bleaching agent. The majority of the product's use is as a bleaching agent in a variety of sectors, such as pulp & paper, detergents, and textiles.


The demand from the wastewater chemical treatment sector has increased dramatically as a result of rising urbanisation and industrialization, particularly in emerging nations such as China and India, which notably adds to the expansion of the Sodium Hypochlorite Market. The sodium hypochlorite market is expected to be bolstered in the next years by exponentially increasing bleach demand from the textile and pulp and paper industries.


Since governments have strict requirements for sanitising public spaces, the global sodium hypochlorite market is likely to rise rapidly in 2020. The Covid-19 pandemic, on the other hand, has had a significant impact on distribution routes and consumer spending habits. Due to the lockdown in several nations around the world, consumer products and chemicals, among other things, are projected to see a drop in demand. End-user sectors including pharmaceuticals and water treatment, on the other hand, are predicted to rise throughout the projection period.

The sodium hypochlorite market is likely to grow during the forecast period due to an increase in demand for the disinfection of surgical equipment and hospital rooms in the medical industry. Furthermore, as people become more aware of the importance of disinfecting office spaces, public toilets, malls, and complexes on a regular basis, demand for sodium hypochlorite is increasing, moving the market forward. The risky nature of sodium hypochlorite, on the other hand, may limit the market's growth.
