This process involves thermal cracking Acetic acid to ketene and the subsequent reaction of the ketene with additional Acetic Acid to form acetic anhydride.

Some acetic acid is produced as a co-product in the methyl acetate carbonylation process.Request Sample: https://www.chemanalyst.com/ChemAnalyst/RequestFormDemand in pharmaceuticals is expected to rise due to increasing Demand for aspirin in the forecast period.

Apart from pharmaceuticals, demand in other end use such as Tetra Acetyle Ethylene Diamine (TAED) is also experiencing a growth trajectory due to rise in the demand for laundry detergents.

Demand in cellulose acetate flakes is seeing a decreasing trend in the forecast period due to increasing use of E-cigarettes globally.According to ChemAnalyst report, “India Acetic Anhydride: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Process, Demand & Supply, Application, End Use, Distribution Channel, Region, Competition, Trade, Customer & Price Intelligence Market Analysis, 2015-2030”,“Acetic Anhydride demand suffered a minor blow after the onset of coronavirus.
