Xylene is an organic compound that appears as a colorless, sweet-smelling liquid or gas occurring naturally in petroleum, coal, and wood tar. It is commercially produced during the coke fuel manufacturing process. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon liquid used to manufacture industrial derivatives, such as rubber cement, lacquers, lubricants, enamels, cleaning agents, dyes, insecticides, rubber goods, detergents, and thinners. As a result, xylene finds extensive applications in the automotive, textile, chemical, oil and gas, leather, paints and coatings, and rubber industries across the globe.
The global xylene market is primarily driven by the rising applications of polyesters in the textile industry. Moreover, due to the growing usage of face shields, transparent masks, and food and e-commerce packaging, the escalating demand for xylene derivatives, such as purified terephthalic acid (TPA), dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), has accelerated product adoption rates. Additionally, there has been a rise in the use of paraxylene, a xylene isomer, in the production of PET plastic used in various industries, including consumer goods, automotive, construction, sheets & films, food packaging, and beverage packaging. In line with this, the rising demand for PET for manufacturing mineral water and carbonated drink bottles due to rapid growth in the beverage industry has augmented the product demand. Besides this, high investments by key players in establishing new manufacturing plants and expanding the capacities of the existing plants represent another major growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, the escalating demand for xylene in numerous applications, such as degreasing agents, adhesives, and sealants, due to its solvent property is contributing to the market growth. Apart from this, the emerging product applications in chemical intermediates, blending agents for high-motor and aviation fuels, and breathing devices (inhalers) have catalyzed market growth. Other factors, including the significant expansion of the automobile industry, increasing investments in research and development (R&D) activities, rapid industrialization, and easy availability of cheaper feedstock through shale oil discoveries, are also anticipated to drive the market further.
