REPORT DESCRIPTION
A new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a comprehensive evaluation of the global Propylparaben Market . The study , titled “ Propylparaben Market - Global Industry Analysis , Size , Share , Growth , Trends and Forecast 2016 - 2024 ”, is available for sale on the firm ’ s website .
Propylparaben , also known as nipasol , is a chemical which belongs to the family of parabens . Parabens are esters of parahydroxybenzoic acid or parahydroxybenzoates . Different types of parabens include methylparaben , ethylparaben propylparaben and butylparaben among others . Propylparaben is an odourless white crystalline powder . It occurs naturally in many plants as well as insects . However , the commercially used propylparaben is artificially synthesized . Propylparaben , similar to other chemicals of the paraben family , is widely used as preservatives . Owing to its antimicrobial property , propylparaben is used as additives in several applications such as cosmetics , pharmaceuticals and food .

Propylparaben is an effective microbial preservative even at low concentration . Food , cosmetics and pharmaceuticals can all spoil due to microbial actions of bacteria and fungi if they do not contain preservatives . Propylparaben kill microorganisms and prevents unwanted microbial growth of bacteria and fungi . Moreover it can be used over a range of mediums such as acidic and alkaline ; however it is more effective in acidic medium . Due to its low production cost , propylparaben is extensively used in a variety of health care products such as moisturizers , shampoos , conditioners , shower gels , deodorant and sunscreen . It is also used as additives in personal care products which include makeup items such as lipsticks , mascaras , eye shadows and foundations . Propylparaben is apparently non toxic to humans and other mammals due to which it is suitably used as preservatives in a wide range of drugs and can be absorbed in several ways such as orally and injections .
Most of the chemicals belonging to the paraben family are similar in structure and applications . Owing to toxic effects on humans , the demand for paraben based additives has reduced considerably . In 2014 the European Union banned the usage of five paraben chemicals namely benzylparaben , pentylparaben , phenylparaben , isobutylparaben and isopropylparaben . The usage of benzylparaben comprising cosmetic has also been restricted in South Asia after research studies have highlighted that benzylparaben disrupts hormonal activities . However the demand for propylparaben is at a boom because of its non toxic nature and effective application as an antimicrobial additive .
North America accounts for the largest market for propylparaben whereas Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market . Presence of international manufacturers of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics in North America , especially in the U . S ., has boosted the demand for
