Dublin, July 16, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Glycol Ethers Market 2019-2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Increasing demand from the automotive industry
Automotive parts are coated with paints and coatings to protect them from moisture, abrasion, chemicals, and high temperature. Glycol ether-based solvents are used in paints and coatings to improve their blush resistance, evaporation rate, solvent release, solubility, and flow out and leveling properties. The demand for automotive paints and coatings will grow among consumers who invest in maintaining their vehicle's utmost appearance.
The high growth of the automotive industry especially in APAC will fuel the demand of automotive paints and coatings and consequently drive the growth of the glycol ethers market at a CAGR of almost 5% during the forecast period.
Rising demand for cosmetics products
Glycol ethers are increasingly being used as a low-cost replacement of fatty acid isopropyl esters and as a solvent for ingredients in cosmetics. The demand for cosmetic skin care products is increasing because of factors such as rapid urbanization, the growing popularity of social networks, growth of the upper middle class, and increasing online beauty spending.
With the rising demand for cosmetics products, the demand for glycol ethers is also expected to grow in the forthcoming years.
Market Dynamics
The report looks at factors such as the rising demand from the construction industry, growing demand from emerging economies, and increasing demand from the automotive industry. However, fluctuation in raw material cost, stringent regulations and policies, and safe handling and transportation of glycol ethers may hamper the growth of the glycol ethers industry over the forecast period.
