Toluene Diisocyanates Market Overview


Toluene diisocyanates are majorly used to make polyurethane products, such as rigid and flexible foams, coating, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers. The increasing demand for flexible foam has been driving the market growth. Foam is used in various industrial applications due to its reliability in the sector, and its excellent properties, the reduction of the cost of raw materials is a significant advantage in using these materials. The high demand for polyurethane from the automotive industry is one of the critical reasons that will take forward the toluene diisocyanates market.


Crude oil, propylene, aniline, and toluene are some raw materials that are used in the production of toluene diisocyanates (TDI). An increase in those raw materials prices hampers the market growth of toluene diisocyanates during the forecast period, and growing environmental regulations because of the existence of toxic compounds in the product may hamper the market growth during the forecast period. Manufacturers are developing new products due to the growing demand for TDI from various industries.
