Global Methylene Chloride Market Definition

Methylene Chloride is also known as dichloromethane (DCM) is manufactured by reacting methane or methyl chloride with chlorine gas in a distillation process. Methylene Chloride is a colorless, volatile liquid with a slightly sweet odor. The major application of Methylene Chloride is as a solvent in various end-user industries such as paints & coatings, pharmaceuticals, textiles, adhesives & sealants, and aerosols among others. Methylene Chloride is used in paint strippers and degreasers. It is also used in the beverage industry to decaffeinate tea and coffee. Additionally, Methylene Chloride finds applications in polyurethane foams as a blowing agent and metal cleaning applications. Moreover, Methylene Chloride is used in the manufacturing of hydrofluorocarbons such as HFC-32.

Methylene Chloride is an organochlorine compound with the formula CH2CL2, which is also called dichloromethane (DCM). This colorless, unstable fluid has a mildly sweet aroma and is widely used as a solvent. It finds its applications in the paints & coatings industry, metal cleaning, polyurethane foams as a blowing agent, and is used to decaffeinate tea & coffee.

Global Methylene Chloride Market Overview

The surge in demand for solvents in the automotive & construction industries, easy availability of Methylene Chloride, and rise in demand for fluorocarbons are expected to drive the growth of the global Methylene Chloride Market. However, an increase in health concerns due to increased exposure to Methylene Chloride and implementation of stringent regulations by the American Coatings Association on the use of Methylene Chloride is expected to hamper the growth of the market during the forecast period. On the contrary, factors such as an increase in the production of Methylene Chloride in the Asia-Pacific region are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for market expansion.

The market for Methylene Chloride was mainly driven by high demand from the paints & coatings market. Methylene Chloride is used as a solvent in paints & coatings and huge demand from the paints and coatings industry is driving the market in past few years. Other end-user industries such as adhesives & sealants, textiles, and pharmaceuticals are expected to exhibit steady demand for Methylene Chloride in upcoming years. Increasing demand for fluorocarbons is likely to provide bigger opportunities for the Methylene Chloride Market in the next few years. Increasing demand for HFC-32 from end-user industries is probably going to supply more demand for dichloromethane in years to return. However, stringent government regulations faced by the Methylene Chloride industry due to being considered as the potentially carcinogenic chemical is anticipated to hinder the growth of the market in the next few years.
