The "Global Caustic Soda Market 2018-2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The Global Caustic Soda Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.63% during the period 2018-2022.

The latest trend gaining momentum in the market is the ban on mercury cell technology. The liquid metal mercury is a cathode, which is used in one of the three chlorine production technologies. The European chlor-alkali sector had planned to phase out mercury cell technology by December 2017 because of the emission of mercury in this technology.

According to the report, one of the major drivers for this market is the increase in demand for PVC from the construction industry. PVC is produced using ethylene and chlorine as the key raw materials. Chlorine is the by-product of caustic soda production. The increase in the production of PVC will require an increase in the production of chlorine, which will further increase the production of caustic soda.

Further, the report states that one of the major factors hindering the growth of this market is the impact of caustic soda on the environment. It is highly toxic to the aquatic life and should be kept away from lakes, streams, ponds, and other water sources.
