DIISOBUTYL ADIPATE MARKET OVERVIEW

The global di isobutyl adipate market size was valued at USD 0.01 billion in 2024 and is projected to touch USD 0.02 billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 4.4% during the forecast period.

Hexane dioic acid, commonly known as Di isobutyl adipate, is a member of the group of chemical substances known as fatty acid esters. By reducing brittleness, Di isobutyl adipate softens synthetic polymers. Di isobutyl adipate is frequently found in cosmetics and personal care items because it acts as a lubricant on the skin's surface. Additionally, hydro-alcoholic formulations like shaving creams and grooming items employ Di isobutyl adipate. Di isobutyl adipate is also used as a low temperature plasticizer for PVCs and as a specialized solvent in home cleansers.

Secondary plasticizers have a limited compatibility with polymers and are employed in conjunction with other plasticizers, primary plasticizers produce elongation and enhanced softness in the materials. Along with this, the market is anticipated to be supported by rising demand for bio-based materials throughout the course of the projected period and growing acceptance of non-phthalate and high molecular weight phthalate plasticizers. There are many various types of plasticizers on the market, but phthalates, terephthalates, epoxies, and aliphatic are the most often used.

COVID-19 Impact: Disrupted Supply Chains to Restrict Market Development

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with di isobutyl adipate experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, transportation restrictions were put in place, which led to decreased industrial production and disrupted supply chains, which significantly slowed down market growth. Due to the work stoppage, the firms did not make any money, and in addition to this, they also lost their suppliers, who were delivering the necessary supplies to various businesses for use in the construction industry. All of these suppliers are now suffering significant losses. Furthermore, the industrial firms during COVID-19 operated with a limited staff due to social distance rules, which adversely hampered the production and building processes. These factors impacted the di isobutyl adipate market growth during the COVID-19 pandemic.

LATEST TRENDS

Expansion in the Plastic Sector to Drive the Market Expansion

Increased demand for flexible PVC in a variety of applications, increased use of non-phthalate and high molecular weight phthalate plasticizers, and expansion in the packaging sector are the key factors driving the worldwide plasticizers market. Due to China's large production and consumption, as well as the fast-growing markets in India and other nations, Asia-Pacific now has the lion's share of the market in terms of volume and growth. The market's expansion is constrained by strict regulatory restrictions on specific phthalates and the toxicity of PVC. Numerous prospects for the growth of the plasticizer market are anticipated to come from ongoing innovation in plasticizers that has led to the production of its bio-derived kind and R&D initiatives for developing new applications by various industry participants. These factors will encourage di isobutyl adipate market growth in the forthcoming years.
