2-Ethylhexanoyl Chloride Market

Introduction

2-ethylhexanoyl chloride is a slightly colored liquid with a pungent odor and is also known as octanoyl chloride. 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride is largely utilized as an intermediate in various applications including but not limited to agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and specialty chemicals. During historical period (2015-2019), specialty chemical market has expanded at a CAGR of 4% which has generated significant demand for 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride. Growing demand for specialty chemicals from various industries such as construction, catalysts, electronics, specialty polymers etc.

are set to drive the global specialty chemical market and so the 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride market. Apart from this, increasing consumption of 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride as a feedstock and as an organic peroxide initiator is set to fuel the global 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride market at a CAGR of 3% during the forecast period (2020-2030).

Surged demand for 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride in synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals has created ample opportunities for market players during the historical period. In result, both the segments collectively accounted for over one third of the global consumption in 2019.

The scenario is projected to continue throughout the assessment period at an average CAGR of 2% till 2030. Specialty chemical segment is poised to experience leading growth rate in global 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride and is expected to gain significant share by the end of 2030. Further, growing demand from niche end use industries such as dyes and textile are set to result in additional demand for 2-ethylhexanoyl chloride. Aforementioned applications and end uses are projected to create ample opportunities for market players during the forecast period.

COVID Impact Insights
