Dicyclopentadiene Market Trends Market Growth, Industry Outlook, Demand, Key Player Analysis & Opportunity
Market Highlights The global Dicyclopentadiene Market Trend 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 dri
