The hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin industry is gradually developing towards high-end development, and market demand continues to rise.

β-Cyclodextrin has low cost and simple production process. It is currently the only cyclodextrin product that can be produced on a large scale and is widely used. Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) is an etherified derivative of β-cyclodextrin, which is produced by the condensation reaction of β-cyclodextrin and 1,2-epoxypropane. Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin is easily soluble in water, has high safety and stability, can be used as a carrier, diluent, etc., and is widely used in medicine, cosmetics, food and other fields.

Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin is used in medicine to improve drug solubility, control drug release speed, improve drug stability, reduce drug side effects, and can also be used as a protein stabilizer and protectant; in cosmetics The application in food plays a stabilizing and emulsifying role, reducing the irritation of skin by organic molecules, while preventing the volatilization and oxidation of nutrients, and maintaining the lasting fragrance; the application in food improves the long-lasting effect of nutritional molecules and masks or corrects food. Remove the bad taste of nutritional molecules, improve the quality of the product, and increase the shelf life of the product.

Hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin is a pharmaceutical excipient with no side effects found so far. Therefore, it has received market attention and many companies are deployed in this field. In the global market, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin manufacturers include Cerestar, Janssen, Wacker, roquette, Bio-Techne, CycloLab, Sibaiquan Chemical, etc. There are also many hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin manufacturers in China, such as Zhiyuan Biotechnology, Qianhui Biotechnology, Deli Biotechnology, CSPC Pharmaceutical Group, etc., among which the latter two companies can produce injection-grade hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin. dextrin.

With the large-scale production of injection-grade hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and the approval of injection excipients, it will be used in injections, which will drive the rapid development of the hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin industry. Benefiting from the continuous broadening of the application scope of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and the development of downstream industries, the market demand for hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin in my country has shown a growth trend, and the market size has also increased accordingly. According to the “China Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin Industry Market Supply and Demand Status and Development Trend Forecast Report 2022-2026” released by the Industrial Research Center It shows that in 2016, my country’s hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin market size was 90 million yuan, and it will grow to 170 million yuan by 2020.

Industrial analysts said that hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin, as a high-tech biochemical product, has high safety , no toxic or side effects have been found so far, so it is used in the fields of medicine, food, and cosmetics, and the market demand is high. With the improvement of my country’s hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin production technology, products are gradually developing towards high quality, application fields are constantly expanding, and the industry development prospects are good. In terms of market competition, in the early days, my country’s hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin products were mainly concentrated in the mid- to low-end. However, in recent years, as domestic companies have improved their technology, the influence of foreign companies in the domestic market has weakened.
