High Purity Solvents Market Trends




  • Increasing use of n-heptane solvent as a test fuel component in anti-knock engine testing is driving the market growth




Another important factor driving this market is the rising use of high purity solvents in the production of lab supplies for the life sciences sector. Demand is largely being driven by their use in the production of high performance coatings throughout geographies. The widespread use of these solvents may provide health risks, including toxicity to the nervous and reproductive systems, which may reduce consumer demand for the product and impede the expansion of the worldwide solvent market.


As solvents are utilised in paint and coating applications in the construction, automotive, shipbuilding, and aircraft manufacturing industries, these industries' expansion has a significant impact on the market. Although the COVID-19 situation has had a significant negative impact on the market across various sectors, these sectors will eventually demonstrate a significant need for these high quality Solvents. Key companies in the global solvent market may benefit from the increased use of high purity solvents in perfumes. For producers of high purity solvents, the growing emphasis on the development and use of green and bio-based solvents can be a challenge. However, it may also present new opportunities for growth through the introduction of such solvents made in an environmentally responsible manner and from bio-based sources.


The market for high purity solvents is anticipated to increase in the future due to the rising demand for paints and coatings. Paints and coatings are mastic materials that are liquid, liquefiable, or solid before being applied in a thin layer to a surface. To dissolve various ingredients used in paint and coating compositions, high purity solvents are used. For instance, the US coating sector exported coating goods worth over $2.2 billion in June 2021, according to the American Coatings Association, a non-profit organisation with headquarters in the US. As a result, the market for high purity solvents is expanding due to the rising demand for paints and coatings.


In the market for high purity solvents, the introduction of bio-derived products has become a major trend that is gaining popularity. To strengthen their position, major players in the high purity solvents industry are concentrating on developing bio-derived products. In order to actively combat climate change by removing fossil carbon from the value chain, Clariant, a speciality chemicals business with headquarters in Switzerland, introduced its new Vita 100% bio-based surfactants and polyethylene glycols (PEGS) in February 2022. Products from Vita have a Renewable Carbon Index of at least 98% and are produced using renewable feedstocks. The new Vita products help producers increase the bio-based carbon content of consumer goods including detergents, hair and body shampoo, industrial lubricants, paint, and crop formulations by being made for natural formulations with a high Renewable Carbon Index (RCI). Thus, driving the High Purity Solvents market revenue.
