A chelating agent is a chemical compound that forms a complex bond with metal ions by donating extra pairs of electrons. Formation of a chelate complex involves chelating agent binding with metal ions through multiple coordination sites. It creates a ring-like structure called a chelate ring that enhances the stability of the complex by preventing oxidation. Examples of chelating agents are Ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA), Porphine, Cyanocobalamin, Ethylenediamine, and Dimercaprol. The chelating agent has a number of applications in various fields such as agriculture, chemical, and medicine. It is also used in water treatment, ion extraction additives in the food industry, and pharmaceuticals.
Increasing application of chelating agents in various industries
Various industries such as agriculture, paper, pulp, mining, and pharmaceutical use chelate as raw material. In agriculture, chelate is used in the micro fertilizer to increase the mobility of nutrients in the soil and prevent leaching. Mostly EDTA chelate is used to manufacture a mircofertilizer. Agriculture is the largest sector and there will always be a high demand for fertilizer. In addition, better standards of living create the demand for personal care products. In cosmetic products, chelate plays a vital role in improving the shelf life of the product. In the medical industry chelate is used in cancer therapy to remove metal ions from the body and minimize infection. Therefore, increasing demand for chelate as raw material is expected to drive market growth in the forecast period.
Chelated agents are toxic to the environment due to the presence of copper and metal ions. According to natural studies, mostly used EDTA is a persistent substance in the environment, and it has poor biodegradability. Those chelating agents form a complex with metal ions that are toxic to aquatic life. Chelated agents accumulate in the environment and further it moves into the food chain therefore it is harmful to humans. To minimize the environmental risk proper use, handling and disposal practices are necessary. The harmful effect of chelated agents on the environment is expected to hamper the market growth of the Chelating Agent market.
The chelating agent market is negatively impacted by COVID-19. The paper and pulp industry is the largest user of chelating agents. During the pandemic paper and pulp industry experienced slow growth due to various factors such as the unavailability of raw materials, shortage of labor, and low demand from the consumer. After releasing the strict lockdown paper and pulp industry showed positive growth because of increasing demand from consumers and concern about the hygiene household industry growing rapidly.
