The downstream market demand is large and the anisaldehyde industry has good prospects.

Anisaldehyde is one of the main components in star anise oil. It is a colorless or light yellow liquid under normal conditions. Anisaldehyde has a hawthorn flower aroma, which is long-lasting and has strong antioxidant properties. It is widely used in many fields. For example, it is used as a raw material for the manufacture of antimicrobial drug amoxicillin in the medical field and in the electroplating industry. As an excellent brightener, it is used as pesticides, pesticide additives and biological growth inhibitors in the agricultural field. In recent years, with the advancement of technology in various fields, my country’s anisaldehyde industry has developed rapidly, product categories have been expanded, and application fields have continued to expand.

The upstream of the anisaldehyde industry chain is mainly the raw material supply layer. The main raw materials for anisaldehyde production are petrochemical raw materials such as phenol and acrylic acid. my country’s petrochemical industry is supported by the state and is booming. The supply of raw materials for anisaldehyde is stable, laying a good foundation for the development of the anisaldehyde industry.

Midstream companies in the anisaldehyde industry chain produce anisaldehyde through multiple processes. Anisaldehyde production processes mainly include chemical synthesis and biological fermentation. The chemical synthesis method has the advantages of high production efficiency and low cost, but it can easily cause greater environmental pollution and put environmental pressure on production companies. The biological fermentation method is clean, environmentally friendly, has good performance and high product purity, but its production efficiency is low and the cost is high. At present, the mainstream production process of anisaldehyde market is chemical synthesis.

According to the “2023-2028 China Anisal Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, fennel Aldehydes have a wide range of downstream applications. Anisaldehyde can be used to synthesize raspberry ketones. Using anisaldehyde as raw material to produce raspberry ketone has multiple advantages such as easy operation, fewer steps, mild process conditions, high utilization of production materials, and high production efficiency. The product has a more fragrant and longer-lasting fragrance than other synthetic raspberry ketones. Therefore, the anisaldehyde production method is favored by the raspberry ketone industry, and the market demand is large.

With the rapid development of the domestic polymer materials industry, the market demand for high-quality anisaldehyde will continue to increase. In addition, anisaldehyde produced by biological fermentation is a green and environmentally friendly product with broad market prospects and will become a key development direction of the anisaldehyde industry in the future.

​Industry analysts said that anisaldehyde has diverse application fields and the industry has good development prospects. my country’s anisaldehyde enterprises should strengthen technological innovation, increase research and development efforts, improve product quality, promote the transformation of mainstream production processes, apply biological fermentation methods as early as possible, reduce production energy consumption, respond to national environmental protection policies, and drive the overall high-quality and sustainable development of the industry. At the same time, anisaldehyde companies can strengthen cooperation and exchanges with upstream and downstream companies, create a complete industrial chain for coordinated development, optimize the allocation of resources, and increase the added value of products.
