The global Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) market stood at approximately 1.9 million tonnes in 2023 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.05% during the forecast period until 2033.
Polypropylene Glycol, a polyether and polymer of Propylene Glycol, undergoes synthesis through the addition of propylene oxide to 1,2 Propylene Glycol using an alkaline catalyst at temperatures between 100-200°C results in a sticky, colourless liquid with no odour and low volatility. PPG demonstrates solubility in various solvents like water, chloroform, and acetone, but its viscosity increases, and water solubility decreases with rising molecular mass.
Possessing versatile properties such as low density, chemical resistance, high moldability, and tensile strength, Polypropylene Glycol finds applications in polyurethanes, additives, surfactants, hydraulic fluids, wetting agents, and dispersants in the leather industry, among others. It is also crucial in the production of Paintballs and generating artificial smoke or fog for movies, theatrical productions, and fire-fighting training.
Polypropylene Glycol caters to various applications in industries such as Cosmetics and Personal Care, Food & Beverage, Pharmaceuticals, Building & Construction, Automotive, and others. The Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) market is driven by robust demand from the personal care and pharmaceutical sectors. In the personal care industry, PPG is a preferred ingredient in cosmetics and personal care products due to its versatile properties, including low density, high moldability, and excellent lubricity. It is commonly used in formulations for skincare, haircare, and cosmetic products, contributing to its increased adoption. Additionally, the pharmaceutical sector utilizes PPG in various applications, leveraging its chemical resistance and low moisture absorption properties. The demand from these key sectors propels the growth of the Polypropylene Glycol market, making it a pivotal driver within the industry. Owing to these reasons, the global Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) market is likely to reach approximately 2.8 million tonnes in 2033.
In terms of regional demand, the Asia-Pacific region commands the predominant share in the Polypropylene Glycol market and is anticipated to experience substantial growth during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the rapid emergence of end-use industries such as Pharmaceuticals, Food and Beverage, Automobile, and Construction in the region, contributing to an increased demand for Polypropylene Glycol. Additionally, factors like urbanization, a rise in per capita income, and evolving consumer preferences in key emerging economies like China, India, Japan, and South Korea are expected to further propel the Polypropylene Glycol market in the years to come. The dynamic economic landscape and evolving industrial sectors in these nations are significant drivers fostering the growth of Polypropylene Glycol across the Asia-Pacific region.
Based on the end-user industry, the global Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) market is divided into Pharmaceuticals, Cosmetics and Personal Care, Food & Beverages, Building & Construction, Automotive and Others. Among these, Cosmetics and Personal Care is the largest segment and held about 28% of the global Polypropylene Glycol (PPG) market in 2023 and is anticipated to prevail the similar trend in the upcoming years. Polypropylene glycol (PPG) is used in the construction industry for adhesives, paints, and coatings. In the automotive sector, PPG, or Polypropylene Glycol, serves as a crucial antifreeze agent, preventing the engine's cooling system from freezing in cold temperatures. By altering the freezing point of the engine coolant, PPG ensures that the liquid remains in a usable state even in sub-zero conditions. Additionally, it functions as a coolant by absorbing and dissipating excess heat generated during engine operation, contributing to efficient temperature management and preventing overheating, thus playing a vital role in maintaining optimal engine performance.
