[Online Quarterly Update] The Diethylene Glycol (DEG) Market registered demand of 3.25 million tonnes in 2020 and is projected to achieve a healthy CAGR of 5.12% in the forecast period until 2035. Diethylene glycol (DEG) with the chemical formula C4H10O3 is an organic compound consisting of four carbon dimers of ethylene glycol. It is a stable, colorless, odorless, poisonous, and hygroscopic liquid, which is completely miscible in water. DEG is widely used as a solvent that makes it useful in cleaners, cement processing, heat transfer fluids, and adhesives. Commercially, DEG is used in the preparation of antifreeze, brake fluid, cigarettes, some dyes and medicines. It is synthesized by the partial hydrolysis of Ethylene Oxide and as a co-product of ethylene glycol (MEG) and triethylene glycol. Diethylene glycol is utilized in the manufacturing of saturated and unsaturated polyester resins, polyurethanes, humectants, and plasticizers.
On the basis of applications, the DEG market is segregated into plasticizers, solvents, polyester resins, chemical intermediates, lubricants, dehydrants, cosmetic and personal care products, freezing product depressants, and others. The plasticizers segment dominates the Diethylene Glycol market around the world as it is widely used as a feedstock for various products like paper, cork, synthetic sponges, flexible PVC, etc. Rising consumption for flexible and lightweight PVC in the manufacturing of medical devices, automotive parts, adhesive films, extruded wires, and others have bolstered the demand for DEG across the globe. Continuously growing demand for DEG in the making of personal care products like skin creams, lotions, deodorants, etc. is expected to drive the market in the next few years.
Depending upon the end-user industries, the market is segmented into plastic, paint and coatings, automotive, textiles, agrochemical, cosmetic and personal care, building and construction, and others. The plastic industry holds the major share in the Diethylene Glycol market owing to the continuously increasing demand for plasticizers and polyurethanes across the globe. The surging demand for DEG by the automotive and paint and coatings industry is expected to propel the market globally in the forecast period. Rising building and construction activities across emerging countries like China and India are likely to boost the demand for DEG in the upcoming years.
The Diethylene Glycol market was severely affected globally due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020. Government authorities in many countries imposed nationwide lockdowns and strict social distancing norms which halted several manufacturing activities and reduced the demand and production of Diethylene Glycol. Major downstream industries including textiles, paint and coatings, automotive, and others were negatively affected due to the disruption in the supply chain of raw materials. The less availability of manpower has directly affected the production activities of these industries, thereby resulting in decline in the demand for feedstock such as DEG.
Among different regions, the Asia Pacific region dominated the Diethylene Glycol market in 2020 and is likely to maintain its dominance until the forecast period. Government spending on infrastructure development and growing industrialization in emerging economies such as China and India are anticipated to boost the demand for DEG, further propelling its market in the Asia Pacific region in the next few years. Rapidly increasing demand for polyester resins, polyurethanes, plasticizers, etc. from various end-use industries such as automotive, plastic, and others will augment the DEG market in the region. Infrastructure projects in the Asia Pacific region like the ‘Smart City Project’ are expected to drive the demand for Diethylene Glycol from the cement manufacturers in the future.
Major players operating in the Diethylene Glycol market include Reliance Industries, GC Glycol Company, BASF SE, Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Huntsman International LLC, India Glycol Limited, Indian Oil Corporation, SABIC, Lyondell Basell Industries, Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Acuro Organics Limited, Sibur, Indorama LLC., and Others.
