Global Persulfates market is anticipated to expand significantly through 2028 due to the growing demand for water treatment. In 2021, the North American water treatment market increased by USD 109.5 billion.
Global Persulfates market is expected to expand during the projected period due to increasing demand for water treatment as it is used for the treatment of a wide variety of impurities, such as perfluorinated chemicals, halogenated olefins, pharmaceuticals, phenols, and inorganics. Persulfates are a vital component in several industrial processes. They are used in the production of acrylics, polyvinyl chlorides, neoprene, and polystyrenes. Persulfate initiation creates latex polymers for coatings, paints, and carpet backing as well as used in the polymerization of synthetic rubber and resin such as styrene-butadiene rubber, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc. The chemical is used in cobalt and nickel separation procedures, increased oil recovery, creating dispersants for toner formulations and ink jetting, and water and soil cleanup. The chemical is widely utilized in cosmetics as a booster for hair bleaches and the oxidation of hair colors.
For instance, Adeka Corporation produce persulfates which are used as polymerization initiators for synthetic resins and synthetic fibers.
Moreover, persulfates are also used as an additive in concrete to increase its strength and durability, when persulfates are added to concrete, they initiate a chemical reaction that creates calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel that acts as a binding agent, strengthening the concrete and making it more resistant towards water and chemicals.
Thus, the wide range of uses of persulfates by end-use industries is anticipated to drive the growth of Global Persulfates market in the upcoming years.
Furthermore, the growing demand for eco-friendly and sustainable products from consumers results in the development of safer and more sustainable persulfates. Thus, many manufacturers are investing in the development of eco-friendly persulfates that offer improved performance and lower environmental impact.
Rising Demand from the Electronics Segment
A compound having sulfur anions in the regular tetrahedral shape expected for the S(VI) oxidation state is known as a persulfate (or peroxysulfate). The salts of persulfate are potent oxidizers. During the forecast period, the market is expected to be driven by the expanding demand for persulfates in the electronics sector for use in the cleaning and etching of printed circuit boards. Before coating, plating, and adhesive bonding on electronic components, persulfates are used to clean the surfaces of metals such as brass, copper, nickel, aluminium, zinc, and titanium. This is predicted to increase demand for persulfates and drive the market in the upcoming years.
Furthermore, the Japanese electronics industry is one of the largest in the world, and according to JEITA (Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association), in terms of value, annual electronic component production increased by around 10% in 2022 compared to the previous year.
Additionally, persulfates are widely used in the healthcare industry for wound healing and disinfection as they are effective in killing bacteria and other microorganisms. Along with this, recent advancements in the healthcare industry have led to the development of new and more effective persulfates for medical applications.
For instance, in 2020, Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company launched a new line of persulfates called the Emperox 205 which is use in medical applications and offers improved efficacy and lower toxicity.

Rising Wastewater Treatment Projects
For treating a wide range of pollutants, including halogenated olefins, perfluorinated compounds, phenols, pharmaceuticals, inorganics, and more, persulfates are used in the water treatment business. The expansion of the water treatment sector is being fueled by the spike in wastewater treatment projects being undertaken on a global scale.
For instance, in 2022, Nordvästra Skånes Vatten och Avlopp (NSVA) and designed by DeSah installed the largest source-separated sanitation plant in the world in Recolab, Sweden, using circular treatment to recycle greywater, blackwater, and food waste efficiently.
In addition, a colossal 5.6 million m3/day tertiary wastewater treatment and sludge handling plant in Sinai, Egypt, of USD 739 million took polluted water from the Bahr el-Baqar drain (a combination of industrial effluent, sewage, and agricultural runoff).
Moreover, the construction work for the future development wastewater treatment project, the “New Upper Thompson Sanitation District Wastewater Treatment Facility,” will begin in the U.S. by 2023. Such projects fuel the demand for persulfates, thereby driving market growth.
Additionally, persulfates are highly effective oxidizing agents and are widely used in personal care formulations due to their ability to react with a range of organic compounds. Persulfates are commonly used in hair dyes as bleaching agents as they are highly effective in breaking down the melanin pigment in hair, which results in lighter hair color. Along with this, persulfates are also used in skin care products to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They work by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells, which helps to promote new cell growth. Moreover, persulfates are also found in toothpaste, used as a whitening agent, and help to remove stains from teeth. Persulfates are highly effective at breaking down the compounds that cause stains on teeth, resulting in a brighter, whiter smile.
For instance, Evonik supplies persulfates in hair bleach and diaper applications.
Ammonium Will Continue to Be a Key Type
Ammonium persulfate is produced by electrolyzing an aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate. There are several uses for ammonium persulfate, including treating metal surfaces, creating semiconductors, and etching copper on printed circuit boards. It also plays a significant role in wastewater treatment and initiates the emulsion polymerization of acrylic monomers. In the textile sector, it is utilized for bleach activators and de-sizing denim. It is used for de-inking and re-pulping in the paper industry. Additionally, ammonium persulfate is used as a biochemistry and molecular biology reagent to create polyacrylamide gels. All these factors are anticipated to boost the market.
For instance, in 2021, the sales volume of ammonium sulfate in Japan amounted to about 605 thousand metric tonnes.
Additionally, sodium persulfate can decompose slowly at ambient temperature, after heating, or fast in ethanol to liberate oxygen and generate sodium pyrosulfate. Additionally, sodium persulfate is employed as an etchant and cleaning agent in manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs) as well as it is also used as a paper pulp delignifying agent in the pulp & paper industry. Furthermore, sodium persulfates are less expensive and more soluble due to this being widely used in various end-use industries, including electronics, polymers, and more.
For instance, Calibre Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. produces Sodium persulfate which is used in Electronics, pharmaceuticals, and the mining industry.
However, due to the numerous health risks associated with their use as well as raw ingredients utilized in the production of persulfates, like persulfuric acid, negatively influence health. Persulfates can be irritating to the skin and eyes if they are not used properly. In addition, many governments have imposed strict regulations on the production, sale, and use of persulfates which restrain market growth. Moreover, the availability of alternative substitutes that offer similar or better performance at a lower cost such as hydrogen peroxide and chlorine dioxide are alternative oxidizing agents that are gaining popularity in various industries, such as water treatment and paper manufacturing which slow down the market growth.
For instance, according to the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, sodium persulfates are on the list of hazardous substances because they can irritate the eyes, nose, and skin and interfere with breathing.
Furthermore, for instance, in the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified persulfates as toxic pollutants and has set strict limits on their discharge into water bodies.
