Global Ammonium Carbonate Market – Market Description

The Global Ammonium Carbonate Market is a niche but essential segment of the inorganic chemicals industry. Ammonium carbonate is a white crystalline salt widely used as a leavening agent in food processing, a foaming agent in plastics, and a laboratory and pharmaceutical reagent. Its ability to decompose into ammonia, carbon dioxide, and water upon heating makes it particularly valuable in applications requiring gas release without residual solids.

The Global Ammonium Carbonate Market Report 2025 presents an in-depth assessment of market structure, production dynamics, competitive environment, and regulatory influences. The report analyzes historical trends and forecasts market evolution during the 2026–2036 period, incorporating government regulations, food safety standards, industrial demand, and technological progress in chemical manufacturing.

Market growth is primarily supported by steady demand from food processing, polymer processing, and laboratory reagent applications, especially in emerging economies.
