The global resorcinol market is expected to reach USD 580.3 million by 2025, according
to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Strong demand from sectors such as
construction and automobiles and the development of novel products is expected
to benefit the market demand.
Regarding application, rubber products
dominated the segment and at an anticipated CAGR of 2.8% from 2017 to 2025.
Resorcinol is widely used in the tire manufacturing and as an adhesive. The
chemical provides excellent adhesive properties and can be used to bind
synthetic as well as metal materials. These advantages coupled with the growth
of the automotive industry is expected to favor market growth over the next
eight years.
Resorcinol, as well as its derivatives,
have the ability to form organic compounds that possess a UV absorbing
functional group. This property makes resorcinol based derivatives to be used
as UV absorbers in a wide variety of application such as coatings, and paints.
The rising demand for UV absorbers across the globe is expected to benefit the
overall demand over the forecast period.
The chemical is used to manufacture
pharmaceutical products, flame retardants, fungicidal creams & lotions, and
agriculture chemicals. The broad application portfolio has benefitted the
chemical demand in the recent past, and this scenario is expected to continue
over the next eight years.
Major industry participants have adopted
optimized manufacturing processes and dedicated refining processes to provide
high-quality resorcinol. Also, companies provide different grades of the
product to suit the application needs of the customers. Companies are trying to
optimize their production processes to obtain a high grade of the product.
