This latest in the series of white papers to leverage insight and datasets from our ChemForesight service deepo dives into DIDP, DPHP and DINP markets globally. The way that the global plasticisers market is changing is a subject we explored in our earlier blog post An investigation of plasticisers in the 21st century

White paper Part 3

A trio of chemicals key to the manufacture of PET packaging – purified terephthalic acid (PTA), isophthalic acid (PIA) and ethylene glycol (also known as monoethylene glycol) – feature in the third white paper of our series.

Part 3 also explores mixed xylenes, diethylene glycol (DEG), adipic acid, n-Butanol, propylene oxide, epichlorohydrin (ECH) and monopropylene glycol (MPG). Manufacturing MPG used in food & beverages, plastics, liquid detergents, paint, antifreeze as well as pharma and cosmetics consumes in excess of two billion pounds (lbs) per year of petroleum.

Earlier this year we explored biobased routes in our blog post Biobased monopropylene glycol: A bumpy road to a decarbonised world.
