Solvent and Electrolyte Application to Offer Lucrative Opportunities

  • Propylene carbonate is widely used as a solvent in various applications such as foundry, polyester polyol, wire coating, polyurethane, pesticide solvent, surface coating, textile production, and cleaners
  • Versatile chemical properties are expected to increase the number of applications for propylene carbonates such as solvent, electrolyte, additives & chemical intermediates, and others. This is anticipated to fuel the propylene carbonate market in the next few years.
  • Propylene carbonate offers excellent polarity to create a solvation shell for lithium ions. It is widely used as a high permittivity component in lithium batteries as an electrolyte. This solvation shell around lithium-ion creates a conductive electrolyte. However, increase in trend of electric vehicles and rise in demand for batteries are major factors projected to boost the propylene carbonate market in the next few years.

Decreasing Prices and High Flammability to Hinder Market Growth

  • The global trend of decreasing prices of propylene carbonate is a prominent factor restraining the propylene carbonate market
  • Propylene carbonate delivers flammable characteristics. It catches fire quickly. These flammable properties cause risk of damage and require high standard for safe handling, especially in transportation. This is estimated to hamper the propylene carbonate market during the forecast period.
  • Rise in stringent regulations in several countries for the manufacture and usage of flammable liquids may hamper market growth. The manufacturing companies are required to seek permission from the local authorities by defining manufacturing objectives. This may adversely affect the demand for propylene carbonate during the forecast period. 

Asia Pacific Expected to Lead Global Propylene Carbonate Market
