By: Ceresana Persistent Phthalates Since phthalates are considered as harmful to health and environment and were already banned from many applications, processors of plasticizers are increasingly looking for phthalate-free alternatives. However, DEHP (bis(2-ethylhexyl) Flexible Cable Sheaths The most important application area are plastic products – about 87% of all plasticizers were used for this sector in 2016. Plasticizers are utilized for PVC in particular. 2.14 million tonnes were used for films alone, followed closely by cables and profiles. Demand for plasticizers in the production of rubber products, paints and varnishes as well as adhesives is considerably lower. Until 2024, Ceresana expects the highest increases in plasticizer demand for cables and cable sheathing.The plasticizer industry in Asia-Pacific accounted for about 59% of global demand in 2016. Due to above-average growth rates, demand in this region will presumably rise to about 6 million tonnes in the years to come. Behind Asia, Western Europe ranked second in 2016 with 12.1%, followed by North America with 11.5%. The Study in Brief: Chapter 1 provides a presentation and analysis of the global plasticizer market – including forecasts up to 2024: Demand and revenues will be examined for each region of the world. The plasticizer types DEHP, DINP, and DIDP, other phthalates, and non-phthalates are included.Chapter 2 offers demand and revenue data for 45 countries in total. Additionally, demand is split by the applications profiles, films, cables, floorings, other plastics, elastomers, paints & varnishes, and adhesives for the individual countries.Chapter 3 offers a well-founded analysis of the application areas of plasticizers: Further information: About Ceresana Ceresana is an internationally leading market research and consulting company for the industry.
