Growing Downstream Demand to Bolster the Industry Growth
The demand for benzene is being driven by the rising application of cumene in the manufacturing process of phenol and acetone. The market for these two compounds is significantly growing and, thus, aiding the demand growth of cumene. The expansion of capacity in the European Union is also expected to boost the growth of the benzene market in Europe.
The demand for benzene is significantly being aided by the rising demand from the styrene industry, which is witnessing a thriving demand from various end-use sectors. Styrene is used in the production of various products like polystyrene, styrene-butadiene elastomers, latexes, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) resins, and unsaturated polyester resins. Styrene polymers find wide uses in the end use industries like textile, construction, packaging, electronics, medical products, and IT equipment, among others.
Other major factor contributing to the growing demand for benzene is the rising demand for ethylbenzene, which is widely used as a solvent in fuels and as a chemical intermediate. Benzene also has its applications in the CPG industry for packaging purposes. It is widely used in the personal and home care application as a solvent. The rising demand from the paints and coating industry is also providing an impetus to the market growth.
