According to a recent report by Reports and Data, the global hydroquinone market is projected to achieve a value of USD 5.26 billion by 2027. The market growth is primarily driven by the increasing demand for hydroquinone in various industries.

Hydroquinone is extensively used in several applications due to its water-soluble reducing properties. It is commonly employed in photographic solutions and is also utilized in the production of rubber antioxidants, dyes, and other products. Additionally, hydroquinone serves as a stabilizer in varnishes, paints, oils, and motor fuels.

The cosmetic industry is a major contributor to the growing demand for hydroquinone. The compound is used as an antioxidant in cosmetics and is recognized by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as an over-the-counter skin bleaching agent for lightening darkened patches of skin. Furthermore, hydroquinone acts as a stabilizer that hinders the polymerization process of adhesives in artificial nails.

Hydroquinone is considered a versatile stabilizer, inhibitor, and intermediate. It is widely used as an intermediate in the production of agricultural chemicals and dyes and is available in USP grades. Additionally, Mono-Tertiary Butyl hydroquinone (MTBHQ) is an efficient antioxidant for oils, non-fat foods, and volatile organic solvents.
