hexylene glycol market

The Hexylene Glycol Market is expected to witness substantial growth over the forecast period, primarily driven by the increasing demand for solvents in the paints and coatings industry. Hexylene glycol finds extensive application as a solvent, making it a dominant market segment within the industry. Solvents play a crucial role in the formulation of paints and coatings, as they help dissolve and disperse various components, ensuring optimal performance and application characteristics. The growing construction and automotive sectors, coupled with rising consumer preference for aesthetically appealing and durable coatings, are fueling the demand for hexylene glycol in the paints and coatings industry.

The global hexylene glycol market was valued at around US$ 187 Million in 2021, with a market volume of 73,590 tons. Hexylene glycol is witnessing high demand in the personal care and cosmetics industry since it is used as a surfactant, emulsifier, and viscosity-reducing agent in several products.

Moreover, the growing utilization of hexylene glycol as a direct solvent in paints & coatings, household and industrial cleaners, etc., is expected to pave the way for decent sales during the forecast period (2022-2029).

“Low evaporation rate and complete miscibility with water make hexylene glycol an excellent solvent. As a result, its application across several end-use industries is projected to rise, driving market growth over the forecast period.”
