Ethylene carbonate market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR of 6.2% during the forecast period. The growing demand for lubricants due to the rising automobile industry is fuelling the demand for ethylene carbonate across the globe. Ethylene carbonate is used as a solvent in lubricants for polymers, resins, plasticizers, and adhesives & sealants. It is also used as a raw material for the production of lubricants. Lubricants have different application in automobile such as it reduce friction, transfer heat, prevent corrosion, protect against wear and tear, remove contaminants, transmit power, and others. According to European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), in 2021, around 79.1 million motor vehicles were produced across the globe, an increase of 1.3% compared to 2020. Hence, due to the increasing production and demand for automobiles and other benefits are boosting the demand for ethylene carbonate during the forecast period.
Segmental Outlook
The global ethylene carbonate market is segmented based on form, application, and end-use. Based on form, the market is segmented into solid and liquid. Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into lubricants, surface coatings, lithium battery electrolyte, plasticizers, and others. Based on end-use, the market is sub-segmented into automotive, industrial, oil & gas, medical, and others. The above mentioned segments can be customized as per the requirements. Among the form, the solid form is anticipated to hold a prominent share in the market. Owing to the rising usage in various applications such as chemical intermediates, plasticizers, solvents, and lubricants. EC in solid form is largely used in these applications to cater to the end-use industries such as automotive, medical, chemical, and industrial.
Among the application, the lubricant sub-segment is expected to hold a prominent market share over the forecast period owing to its wide application in industries including automobile, oil & gas, and others. It is majorly used in the production of multiple surface coatings as a solvent. Thus, the increasing application of surface coating products in the automobile sector for reducing the emission of VOCs is bolstering the segmental growth. Additionally, it acts as durable protection for all vehicles hence propelling its use for surface coating. It prevents corrosion from continuous exposure to the elements, salty air or indeed prolonged periods of storage before use it is necessary to protect metal surfaces with a surface protective coating. These factors are propelling the demand for ethylene carbonate globally. For instance, according to the Observatory of the Economic Complexity (OEC), in 2020, the top importers of Lubricating Products were China ($1.6 billion), Germany ($556 million), Mexico ($307 million), Russia ($282 million), and Canada ($272 million).
Regional Outlooks
The global ethylene carbonate market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. Among these the Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to grow at a fastest CAGR over the forecast period. However, the North America is expected to hold a prominent share in the market.
Global Ethylene Carbonate Market Growth, by Region 2022-2028
The Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Grow at a Fastest CAGR in the Global Ethylene Carbonate Market
The Asia-Pacific Region is expected to grow at a fastest CAGR in the global ethylene carbonate market during the forecast period. The key market players are heavily investing in the region in industries such as automotive, healthcare, chemical and others, due to the low labor costs, which in turn is boosting the regional market growth. According to the Asian Development Bank (ADB), as of 2022, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) signed a $60 million equity investment in OrbiMed Asia Partners V, LP (OAP V). Asia Partners is a private equity fund managed by OrbiMed Advisors LLC (OrbiMed). The investment aims to enhance health care facility and expansion its coverage in India and the People’s Republic of China (PRC). For instance, in November 2020, HIL (Hindustan Insecticides Ltd.) signed a memorandum of understanding with the Department of Chemicals & Petro Chemicals to achieve revenue target of $60.9 Million. Ethylene carbonate is attributed to the rising usage in various applications such as chemical intermediates, solvents, plasticizers, and lubricants. Ethylene carbonate in solid form is largely used in these applications to cater to the end-use industries such as automotive, chemical, and others.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global ethylene carbonate market include BASF SE, Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Corp., Merck Group, Mitsubishi Chemical Group Corp., Toagosei Co., Ltd., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in November 2019, Mitsubishi Chemical Corp. acquired the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) business of the US based AdvanSource Biomaterials Corp. Through this acquisition, the company expanded its elastomer solution portfolios to TPU technologies. In addition, this acquisition had accelerated the market development of existing business in the US medical devices market.
