Petrochemicals Market Trends:
At present, there is a considerable rise in the utilization of polymer in the food and beverage (F&B) industry as it can help keep products fresh, prevent contamination, and increase their overall shelf-life. This, along with the growing demand for ethane in the manufacturing of olefins, represents one of the key factors driving the market. Besides this, there is an increase in the employment of petrochemicals in the automobile industry to design the body, tires, interiors, and dashboard of vehicles due to their lightweight, durability, and flexibility. This, coupled with the rising application of methanol to produce biodiesel and dimethyl ether, is propelling the growth of the market. In addition, the escalating demand for petrochemicals in the agriculture industry to manufacture plastic mulch, greenhouse covers, and tunnels for reducing water loss and ultraviolet (UV) levels is positively influencing the market. Furthermore, key manufacturers are focusing on the expansion of their production capacities to meet the petrochemicals demand and expand their consumer base. The rising use of petrochemicals in the paint and coating sector on account of their high solvency is projected to offer lucrative growth opportunities to industry investors.Key Market Segmentation:
