Market Overview
Global Cashew Nut Shell Liquid market was valued at USD 331.38 million in 2022 and is expected to increase at a steady CAGR of 7.5 % over the forecast period (2023-2033). Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is a dark brown viscous liquid contained within the soft honeycomb structure of the cashew nutshell and is an important agricultural by-product of cashew nut and cashew apple production. The nut has a shell of around 1/8-inch thickness inside which is a soft honey comb structure containing a dark reddish brown viscous liquid. CNSL is often considered as the improved and inexpensive material for unsaturated phenols.
The chemically stable nature of CNSL, the inherent hydrophobicity and chemical resistance, the solubility of the resin in various solvents, the film-forming nature, and a high degree of unsaturation make cashew nut shell liquid polymers highly suitable for coating industry. Thus surging demand for the corrosion resistant, high quality paints from the shipping industry is triggering the market growth.
Additionally, CNSL polymers are a natural choice for Brake linings and clutch facings in automotive industry because of an excellent blend of properties such as absorption of heat generated due to friction, high impact strength and modulus, longer retention of braking efficiency, low fade characteristics, and low cold wear which indeed propels the use of CNSL in automotive industry.
Furthermore, Polymers derived from CNSL have certain outstanding properties which make them unique for many Industries such as coating, automotive, fuel, leather, tobacco curing, and others. The low cost of CNSL as a starting material is the most attractive aspect. The polymer shows flexibility, due to internal plasticization resulting from the presence of a long side-chain and also gives water resistance which surges the use of CNSL in the end use industries, which in turn fosters the growth of Cashew Nut Shell Liquid Market over the forecast period. The impact of this driver is estimated to be high in short term.

Impact of COVID
The declaration of coronavirus as a global pandemic has dealt a huge blow to the cashew industry. All markets have come to a halt due to the closure of borders, the suspension of public and private transportation, self-isolation, and quarantine administration in major cities.
The decision to self-isolate has shown to be effective in slowing the spread of the virus, giving optimism that humanity will be able to overcome this global calamity. Recovery of losses made by business owners and important players, on the other hand, may prove more difficult than anticipated. Lockdowns were enacted in cities, provinces, and countries. Businesses (including factories) were shuttered or operated at a reduced capacity.
The initial perception was that the impact on the cashew market would be limited to a slight decrease in sales, but because the virus has spread to almost every continent, the movement of RCN (raw cashew nut) from Africa to Asia and kernels from Asia and Africa to consuming countries has been hampered by reduced sailings.
For instance, Vietnam's cashew industry experienced several complications in 2021 as a result of the Covid-19 outbreak and high shipping costs. Furthermore, the chairman of the Vietnam Cashew Association, Mr. Pham Van Cong, stated that as a result of the global spread of the Covid-19 pandemic over the last two years, VINCAS and cashew industries have been unable to organize promotional activities, scale up markets, and conduct market research particularly for deep-processed products. As a result, cashew production and export activities were reliant on market and customer availability.
