  • How has the global economy affected plasticizer alcohol use in 2024?
  • In 2024, the weakness in the global economy and the Israel-Hamas war have resulted in declines in plasticizer alcohol use in markets such as construction and automotive. Disruptions in transportation and high costs in logistics lead to high inventory and limited production, resulting in a global utilization rate of below 70%.
  • What is the largest end-use market for plasticizer alcohols?
  • Plasticizers are the largest end-use market for plasticizer alcohols, accounting for nearly half of world consumption in 2024. Plasticizers will remain the largest application; however, demand for nonplasticizer applications such as acrylate/methacrylate esters, acetate esters and glycol ethers will also grow depending on the regional markets.
  • What is the global consumption of plasticizer alcohols for plasticizers?
  • World consumption of plasticizer alcohols for plasticizers is forecast to grow at an average annual rate of 2.0% during 2024–29. Consumption of plasticizer alcohols, especially C 6 -C 13, depends significantly on demand for plasticizers and flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
  • What is the demand for plasticizer alcohols in acrylate/methacrylate and acetate esters?
  • Plasticizers will remain the largest application; however, demand for nonplasticizer applications such as acrylate/methacrylate esters, acetate esters and glycol ethers will also grow depending on the regional markets. Therefore, demand for plasticizers will grow less than for plasticizer alcohols in acrylate/methacrylate and acetate esters.
  • Which plasticizer alcohol is most consumed in the world?
  • 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EH) and n-butanol continue to account for most plasticizer alcohol consumption, with a combined three-quarters of the global total. They are followed by isononyl alcohol and isobutanol. Consumption growth for both alcohols will continue during the next few years.
