Benzoic acid (C7H6O2, CAS NO. 65-85-0) is a form of carboxylic acid. It is a colorless chemical which is crystalline in nature and soluble in water. Benzoic acid is extensively used to manufacture its derivatives such as sodium benzoate and potassium benzoate. 

The global benzoic acid market is expected to grow at a substantial rate within the forecast period. The growing demand for food preservatives from the food and beverage sector in emerging economies fuels the growth of the market. Furthermore, increasing demand in the packaging industries for the benzoic acid is expected to be a major driver for the global benzoic acid market within the forecast period. Increasing population, growing disposable income, and changing lifestyle also leads to an increase in the growth of the benzoic acid market. Benzoic acid is also used in the manufacturing of benzoate plasticizers, benzoates, benzoyl chloride, alkyd resins, and animal feed additive. Stringent regulation in developed countries has restricted the growth of alkyd resins; as a result, it is hampering the benzoic acid market growth. However, adverse health effects associated with benzoic acid may hinder the market in the coming years. In addition, its prolonged usage and exposure can harm the lungs and digestive tracts. As there is an increased demand for the benzoic acid from industrial, chemical, and food preservation sectors its demand is expected to increase in the forecast period. Nonetheless, product innovation and emerging market in the Asia Pacific is likely to open new avenues for the major players of the market during the years to come.
