Chicago, Sept. 23, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ethyl lactate Market is projected to reach USD 2.74 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 7.8 % from USD 1.88 billion in 2022, according to a new report by MarketsandMarkets™. In the coming years, the demand for ethyl lactate will increase due to its non-toxic and non-carcinogenic qualities in the personal care, cosmetic, and food and beverage industries. Eco-friendly solvent ethanol lactate has potential applications in supercritical fluid technologies, including high-pressure chemical reactions, carbon dioxide co-solvent precipitation, and supercritical extraction procedures.

Owing to its biodegradable qualities, ethyl lactate is an environmentally safe product. Their use can be increased if they are substituted by synthetic organic solvents such as methylene chloride and chloroform. Additionally, the ongoing economic recovery and ethyl lactate's downstream uses are expanding the market for this chemical across a variety of industrial verticals.
