CHLOROTOLUENE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW
The global chlorotoluene market size was USD 944 million in 2022 and is projected to touch USD 1276.2 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 3.4% during the review period.
The chemical is considered an important intermediate in the pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals industries. It is also acknowledged as chlorinated toluene which refers to a group of three isomeric chemical compounds. The benzene ring is attached to a methyl group and chlorine atom. This group of isomeric compounds includes meta, para and ortho, which depends on the position of the chlorine atom with reverence to the methyl group.
The chemical is formed by the response of toluene with chlorine under moderate temperature and normal pressure in the company of a metal catalyst, such as titanium or titanium chloride or iron chloride. With the isomeric fraction of chlorotoluene combination depending on the temperature and catalyst a crude product is obtained. The untainted isomers are further divided by fractional decontamination.
COVID-19 Impact: Disruption in Usual Practices to Halt Market Growth
The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with global wastewater grinders experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The spike in CAGR is attributable to the chlorotoluene market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.
The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the way of life across the world. The pandemic situation had brought about extraordinary changes to the market. In the production of daily necessities such as plastic, medicines, fertilizers, packaging products the chemical has always had a key role and with the severe disturbance caused by COVID-19, these industries were hit badly, causing a chain effect which disrupted usual practices. Consumer's spending abilities were affected and this caused a drop in demand for key sectors such as automotive, specialty chemicals and consumer products. Indirectly a chain-effect was caused, involving the chemical industry.
Decline in construction was witnessed due to the brunt faced by paints and coatings companies, automotive and industrial sectors. Even petrochemical industries weren't spared, with the decline within the aviation sector due to the travel bans. This impacted the demand for tires and artificial rubber similarly which are made with the utilization of chloride.
LATEST TRENDS
"Dye Carriers to Give New Approach to the Market"
In particular, when dyeing polyester using disperse dyes as auxiliary and levelling agents, the chemical is used as a dye carrier. Dying is a common technique among businesses; synthetic dyes, which are typically more affordable, reliable, and easy to use, have supplanted the primary source of dyes in earlier times. Chemicals like haematoxylin, orcein, carmine, and toluene are still utilized in natural dyes. Market expansion will arise from the chemical's use. The chlorotoluene market also benefits from dye use, which is mostly in the textile industry.
