Market Definition
Glycol is an organic compounds belonging to the alcohol family. In the molecule of glycol, two hydroxyl groups are attached to the different carbon atoms. Glycol is an odorless, colorless, sweet-tasting, flammable and viscous liquid. It can be toxic for human health if taken in high concentrations.
Global Glycol Market Dynamics
Drivers
- Growing demand of propylene glycol
Propylene glycol is used in hydraulic fluids and fire-resistant brake as a coolant in the transportation sector for engine cooling. This is widely used as a raw material for de-icing planes and as a heat transfer fluid for high-temperature applications. The rising demand of propylene glycol is expected to boost the growth of the glycol market.
- Huge demand of glycol in food industry
Glycol is widely used to improve several processed food products, flavour, appearance, texture, and shelf life. The significant rise in processed foods is due to hectic lifestyles, growing working population and changing dietary patterns. These are some key factors expected to stimulate the glycol market's growth.
Furthermore, rising demand of the compound in polyester resins manufacturing, rising preferences towards the usages of organic synthesis are expected to boost the growth rate of the glycol market. Also, growing demand of products such as coolants and antifreeze is the major factor that will likely uplift the glycol demand in the market during the forecast period of 2022-2029.
Opportunities
- Increasing demand of glycol in automotive industry
The rising demand for glycol in the automotive industry is anticipated to increase the growth of the global market. Ethylene glycol has a significantly lower melting point than water, which keeps engines of ethylene from freezing in the winter and works as a coolant to avoid overheating in the summer. Also, ethylene glycol is used in vehicles to absorb combustion heat which is expected to generate lucrative opportunities for the global glycol market.
Furthermore, augmented utilization in paints and coatings, food, pharmaceuticals, combined with use in aircraft de-icing fluid will create a surge in demand for glycol and will increase valuable opportunities for the market's growth rate.
Restraints/ Challenges
- Disadvantages associated with glycol
Health issues due to the use of glycol is the major challenge which has encountered by the glycol manufacturers. Numerous health distresses associated with glycol can adversely affect the market growth rate. However, WHO has specified that the acceptable daily consumption of glycol as a food additive should not exceed 25 mg/ Kilogram of weight. Health issues created by the high consumption of glycol are the major market restrains that will hinder the market's growth rate.
