Dicyclopentadiene Market Overview | Size, Status, Global Outlook and Forecast 2022-2027
Market Highlights
The global Dicyclopentadiene
Market Overview is projected to be valued at
USD 1,071.74 million by the end of 2027, registering a CAGR of 5.14% during the
forecast period.
Dicyclopentadiene
is a chemical compound with the formula C10H12. It is co-produced in large
quantities in the steam cracking of naphtha and gas oils to ethylene as part of
the separation process of crude C5 streams. It is a colorless, waxy, flammable
solid or liquid with a camphor-like odor. Dicyclopentadiene is highly
flammable, with a flashpoint of 90°F/32°C and a boiling point of 338ºF/170°C.
The major uses are in resins, mainly unsaturated polyester resins. As a
chemical intermediate, it is used to make insecticides, hardeners, and dryers
in linseed and soybean oil and produce ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM)
elastomersmetallocenes, resins, varnishes, and paints.
The extensive
demand for dicyclopentadiene analysis in the manufacturing of unsaturated
polyester resins is the primary driving factor propelling the growth of the
global dicyclopentadiene market. These unsaturated polyester resins are further
widely used in the manufacturing of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP), which have
applications in sanitary ware, tanks, pipes, gratings, and high-performance
components for the marine and transportation industry, such as closure panels,
body panels, fenders, and boat hulls and decks. Replacement of conventional
structural materials, such as wood and metals, by FRPs due to their high
strength-to-weight ratio, chemical resistance, weatherability, easy
fabrication, and versatility of product design drives the global market.
Furthermore, the use of dicyclopentadiene in hydrocarbon resins, which are used
as tackifiers, performance modifiers, and homogenizing agents, supports market
growth.
Moreover, rapid
industrialization and urbanization across the globe and infrastructural
development promote the use of EPDM rubber in construction activities. The
growing construction industry in developing regions, with rising residential
and commercial construction, especially in India and China, coupled with
improving living standards and rising disposable incomes, is driving the growth
of the dicyclopentadiene market. Increasing spending by the Indian government
on infrastructure development, such as the Smart Cities Mission, Green
Corridor, and the building of ports, is propelling the market growth.
Additionally, in late 2013, the Chinese government started the One Belt One
Road project for transportation infrastructure development, which is likely to
propel the growth of the construction industry, thereby driving the global
market.
Segment Analysis
The global Dicyclopentadiene Market
Overview has been segmentedon the basis of grade, application, and region.
By grade, the
market is segmented into polyester grade, hydrocarbon grade, high purity grade,
and others. Among these, the polyester grade was valued at USD 329.90 million
in 2019, accounting for 45.47% of the global market; this is attributed to the
high use of dicyclopentadiene for producing polyester resins, which are further
used in key end-use industries, such as building & construction,
automotive, and aerospace.
On the basis of
application, the market has been categorized into unsaturated polyester resin,
hydrocarbon resin, EPDM elastomers, cyclic olefin polymer (COP) & copolymer
(COC), poly DCPD, and others. The unsaturated polyester resin segment emerged
as the fastest-growing segment, registering the highest CAGR of 5.4%. It is
expected to reach a value of USD 498.41 million by the end of 2027.
Key Findings of the
Study:
- The global
Dicyclopentadiene Market Overview is projected to reach a value of USD
1,071.74millionby 2027,with a CAGR of around 5.1% during the forecast
period.
- Among these
regions, Asia-Pacific accounted for 47.23% of the market share in 2019 and
is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR of 5.4% during the review period;
this can be attributed to the rapid industrial growth and the improving
economic conditions of consumers in this region.
- The growing
construction industry in developed nations, with increasing investments in
residential construction and infrastructure development, is likely to
drive the growth of the dicyclopentadiene market. In the U.S., revenue
from the construction industry crossed USD 1 trillion in 2016–2017 and is
expected to reach USD 1.7 trillion by 2020. This market growth can be
attributed to the increase in residential construction with the growing
need for single-family dwellings.
- The regulations
imposed regarding environmental concerns and depletion of fossil fuels
coupled with an inclination towards plant-based chemicals act as a
restraint for the market growth.
- The growing
demand for lightweight and fuel-efficient military aircraft for homeland
security and counterterrorism is a major factor expected to fuel the
global market growth.
