Carbon is a common ingredient in many synthetic materials, including fuels and polymers. Carbon's lack of toxicity has resulted in a demand among dimethyl carbonate merchants for chemical ingredients such as carbon dioxide (CO2) converted to dimethyl carbonate (DMC). This is expected to continue, as traditional methods like phosgenation produce undesirable byproducts including the highly toxic and corrosive gas phosgene and voluminous amounts of inorganic salts.
Therefore, players in the dimethyl carbonate market are increasing their investment in research and development to improve green chemistry's efficacy. Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is being synthesised in large quantities by automakers from carbon dioxide (CO2) and methanol (CH3) in an effort to increase the efficiency of green chemistry. The green synthesis of DMC is gaining traction as a viable option because methanol may be used as a cheaper raw ingredient.
Demand for electric vehicles is likely to rise during the forecast period due to factors including the declining cost of li-ion batteries and government financial incentives and subsidies for the purchase of electric vehicles.
As a biodiesel additive, its usefulness rises due to its high oxygen content, adequate solubility, and boiling point. Dimethyl carbonate, when added to diesel, allows for cleaner combustion while cutting down on pollutants. During the projected period, the global market is expected to increase due to factors such as the rise in environmental concerns, the rise in consumer awareness, and the rise in adoption of sustainable and bio-degradable solutions.
Transparent, strong, thermally stable, chemically and heat resistant, and dimensionally stable, polycarbonate is in high demand as an engineering thermoplastic used in numerous industries including but not limited to electrical and electronics, automotive, building and construction, consumer products, and medicine. Polycarbonate is widely employed in the building and automobile industries. The expansion of these industries has increased pressure on plastic polymer manufacturers to keep up with rising demand. Countries including Germany, Japan, Thailand, and South Africa are ramping up production of the plastic polymer in response to rising demand from the packaging, electronics, and medical sectors.
The conventional process of making DMC produces hazardous byproducts and uses poisonous gases like phosgene and carbon monoxide. Phosgene is a chemical that can be very harmful to human health. Even the disposal of phosgene's byproducts has a significant influence on the environment, therefore any process design that includes it would incur additional expenditures. The methanol phosgenation method is used for the production of dimethyl carbonate by a number of companies across the world. As a result, this factor slows the expansion of the dimethyl carbonate industry.
