Market Highlights:

Diethylene Glycol (Deg) Market is driven by the growth in automotive and building and construction industry. The automotive sector is the largest end-user of the paints and coatings which uses DEG. The other usages are inks, adhesives, resins, aerosols, cosmetics among others. The varied applicability of these organic compounds has fueled the demand across the globe, with well-established markets being North America and Europe.

DEGs are organic compounds used widely as solvents. It is used across various strategic industries such as automotive, construction, chemical and personal care among others. These coatings are applied as raw material in the production of polyester resins & plasticizers, dehydrating agent in natural gas, humectants, textile lubricant & coupling agent, solvent in textile dyeing and printing, plasticizer for paper, cork and synthetic sponges and raw material for the production of esters as emulsifiers, and lubricants. Additionally the properties of DEGs such it can be used as softening agent, which is why it can be used in pigments and brake fluids paste.

Market Scenario and Growth Factors:

Furthermore the growth of automotive industry due to high demand for automobile from the emerging nations has led to the increased market for paints & coatings, which is the largest application. The regions of APAC have shown high population and urbanization which fuels the demand for automobiles in the region. Also, APAC is currently valued as the fastest growing market for diethylene glycol and is expected to keep up the pace by 2023. The foreign and domestic investment in infrastructure industry widens the scope for coating material. The global Diethylene Glycol Industry is expected to cross USD 350 Million mark at the end of the forecasted period and is expected to show a staggering growth at CAGR of approximately 4.3% from 2016 to 2023.
