Growing demand for food coupled with depleting arable land is expected to drive the global agricultural films market between 2014 and 2020. Protective films that are positioned over soil, covered over greenhouses or wrapped around the fodder are known as agricultural films. Agricultural films provide a wide range of benefits such as reducing erosion and soil compaction, providing nutrients, increasing soil temperature, supporting seed germination, suppressing the growth of weeds, and protecting against UV rays.

Increasing demand for hairsprays, deodorants, and pharmaceuticals in aerosol cans is raising the demand for metal cans. Additionally, high recovery rate of metal cans for recycling is predicted to emerge as another substantial driver of this market owing to a lot of consumers becoming more aware about environment protection.

Acetic acid (Ethanoic acid) belongs to the family of carboxylic acids and is a colorless liquid which possesses a distinctive pungent smell and sour taste. It is classified as a weak acid although its concentrated form is corrosive in nature.Growing demand adhesives and PTA, which are key acetic acid consuming industries, is expected to drive the global acetic acid demand over the next five years. Moreover, growing application markets such as vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) and Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) are expected to fuel the market growth in the coming future.

Maleic anhydride - an organic, colorless compound – is used as a chemical intermediate in different industrial procedures and in the manufacturing of copolymers, agricultural chemicals, fumaric acid, lubricant additives, plasticizers, malic acid, and surfactants. Automotive/transportation, wind energy, marine, pipes and tanks, building and construction, and electrical and electronics are some of the major end users of maleic anhydride, indicating the growth and development of the global market.

Bottled water is regulated under the packaged food products by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is one of the fastest selling liquid refreshment drinks globally. In the food and beverage industry, the bottled water market is one of the dynamic and fastest growing markets. Growing health concerns for health, increasing disposable income, availability of functional water in various flavors, portability of hygienic water in bottled packaging and launch of new innovative packaging have an imperative role in the growth of bottled water market. The global market for the bottled water was worth USD 157.27 billion in 2013.

Smart cards are IC-based cards that accumulate and retrieve information using various computer systems. Smart cards consist of central processing units and memory units. Smart cards primarily act as a cost-effective way to store, manage, and maintain credentials for their users. This makes these products highly convenient for different applications.

Sodium propionate is the sodium salt of propionic acid and is currently the most widely used chemical in the food industry. It is stable at room temperature and incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and is prepared by reacting propionic acid and sodium carbonate. It is used as a food preservative and as a mold inhibitor in products that are susceptible to spoilage and is a safe compound when used at low levels. Sodium propionate comes in the white crystalline solid or powder forms.
