According to the Global Polymer Stabilizers Market Report, By production process ( Gas based, Naphtha based, Coal-based, Methane-to-Olefins, Bio-based), By Application (Polyester Fiber, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Resins, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Film, Antifreeze, Others), By End-user ( Textile, Plastic & Packaging, Automotive, Others), By Region (Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, Middle East & Africa.) Published by Coherent Market Insights.

Monoethylene glycol is a colorless, odorless liquid that is made from ethylene during the ethylene oxide synthesis process. Ethylene oxide method yield 85% of monoethylelne glycol, and it is commonly utilized in commercial processes. The technique also produces triethylene and tetraethlene glycol, both diethylene compounds, along with monoethylene glycol. Commercially, it is regarded as one of the most important glycols available.

Global monoethylene glycol market was accounted for around US$ 26.98 Billion in 2022, and it is estimated to exhibit a CAGR of 4.7% during the forecast period (2023-2030)

Key Trends and Analysis of the Global Monoethylene Glycol Market:

The use of monoethylene glycol in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films can drive the global monoethylene glycol market growth during the forecast period. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a high-performance thermoplastic that is crystal clear. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films are manufactured from monoethylene glycol. These films provide great dimensional stability, stronger tensile strength, minimal moisture absorption, and good physical property retention across a wide temperature range as compared to other popular plastic films. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) has outstanding electrical qualities, great UV resistance, high gloss, good optical clarity, and acceptable gas barrier capabilities, but a modest moisture barrier. It is an excellent choice for high-quality printing and laminating. It is also used to manufacture high-performance plastic films and sheets, owing to its relatively high melting point, which makes it ideal for sterilizing at high temperatures. Furthermore, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) can be metalized thatimproves the gas barrier qualities for demanding applications while also extending the shelf life of the product. As a result, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film is well-suited to a wide range of industrial, electrical, and automotive applications. Rising demand for MEG owing to growing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films is expected to drive the market growth.
