Increased use of waterborne acrylic products as an alternative to solvent-based products dur too the stricter emission regulation is reflecting favourably on the global 2-ethylhexanol market. Moreover, waterborne coatings are also gaining traction owing to their superior characteristics. They have several advantages such as reduced solvent exposure, less hazardous waste disposal & associated costs and soap clean-up.
2-ethylhexanol’s impressive reactivity as an intermediate and characteristics such as quick dispersing, wetting, defoaming and slow evaporation makes it a preferred ingredient for adhesives, sealants, paint, construction chemicals, lubricants, plasticizers among others. End-use industries such as construction, automotive and paints & coatings are posting a higher demand for 2-ethylhexanol. The chemical sector is one of the largest consumers of 2-ethylhexanol. Growth of the chemical industry is providing an impetus to the global demand for 2-ethylhexanol. In 2020, the size of chemical sector reached USD 5,000 Bn.
Segmental Overview
MRFR’s report includes a detailed segmental analysis of the global 2-ethylhexanol market on the basis of application and region.
By application, the market has been segmented into 2-ethylhexyl nitrate, ethylhexyl acrylate, plasticizers and others. Of these, the plasticizers segmented is likely to witness a relative higher growth during the forecast period. Much of the growth for the segment is expected to come from the extensive usage of plasticizers in additive. Moreover, the plasticizers are also used for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) applications. Plasticizer for PVC accounts for nearly 90% of overall 2-ethylhexanol production.
