Portée et segmentation du marché du métaxylène

Market Definition

Xylene is a colorless and unstable liquid hydrocarbon which is obtained from wood, coal and petroleum. Meta-xylene is an isomer of para-xylene and ortho-xylene. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon, with two methyl substituent which attached at the meta positions of the benzene ring. It is generally used in the production of 1, 3-Dimethylbenzene, Isophthalic acid, 1, 3-xylene, m-xylol, and m-dimethylbenzene are some other names of the chemical.

Meta-xylene Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Surging usage of meta-xylene in the formulation of isophthalic acid

Widespread usage of meta-xylene in the formulation of isophthalic acid is anticipated to drive the demand for meta-xylene. Increase in usage of isophthalic acid in architectural coatings and aerospace coatings is also anticipated to increase the growth of the meta-xylene market. Surge in demand for paints and coatings in the construction sector is propelling the demand for isophthalic acid. This, in turn, is boosting the meta-xylene market growth. In line with this, high consumption of isophthalic acid and growth in demand for sealants and adhesives in end-use industries are anticipated to act as major factor of the meta-xylene market during the forecast period.

• Increasing investments in the production capacity plants

The manufacturers in the meta-xylene market are highly focusing on increasing their production capacity. The major market players in the meta-xylene market are investing in increasing the capacities of existing plants and setting up new plants. For instance, Origin Materials, a US-based chemicals company, has launched its second plant in Geismar to produce polyethylene terephthalate precursor p-xylene. Furthermore, Iran will start the construction of a new 300,000 b/d refinery Shahid Soleimani in 2022, which is predictable to produce ethylene, propylene and paraxylene along with jet fuel, gasoline, diesel, and fuel oil. This project will be completed in coming five years.

Opportunities

• increasing demand for paraxylene

The growing demand for paraxylene all over the globe contributes to the growth of the xylene market. Paraxylene is isomers of xylene and is important in manufacturing polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is used in industries such as food packaging, automotive, beverage packaging, consumer goods, sheets & films and construction. The upsurge in the requirement for packaging materials has augmented the demand for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and hence contributed to the paraxylene market growth. New production plants have been set up to meet the growing demand for paraxylene. For instance, according to the analysis Jinlianchuang, a Chinese provider of comprehensive intelligent and digital services for bulk commodities, in 2022, is expected to have 6 sets of paraxylene units in operation with a manufacture capacity of 11.89 million tons/year with a 41.3% surge. The growth in the production capacity will support the growing demand for paraxylene. The growing demand for paraxylene thereby create immense and ample opportunities for the growth of the xylene market.

Restraints/ Challenge

• Side effects associated with meta-xylene

Meta-xylene has several hazardous and harmful effects: Meta-xylene is highly harmful to environment and human health. If a large amount of xylene enters soil from a hazardous waste site, accidental spill, or a landfill, it may travel through the soil and then contaminate the drinking water wells. Exposure to meta-xylene may lead to vomiting, headaches and nausea. Hence, these harmful hazards are the foremost and biggest challenge for the market growth.

COVID-19 Impact on the Global Meta-xylene Market

The outbreak of Covid-19 has severe impact on all businesses including distribution, manufacturing, and many other worldwide. Also, manufacturers of petrochemical products went under severe situation owing to shortage of feedstock, thus resulting in lower production of products. Meta-Xylenes are used as a solvent in the rubber, printing and leather industries but due to strict government rules, meta-xylene market faced adverse effects during pandemic.

On the brighter side, increase in the usage  of face shields, transparent masks, food, and e-commerce packaging enhancing the demand for the meta-xylene derivatives, including dimethyl terephthalate, purified terephthalate acid and polyethylene terephthalate. These factors augmented the demand for meta-xylene in pandemics. Meta-xylene shipments are projected to progressively increase in the post-pandemic period.
