Dimethyl Carbonate Market Trends

The dimethyl carbonate industry will witness robust growth through 2032, driven by the increasing focus on green chemistry and sustainable manufacturing processes. The adoption of dimethyl carbonate as a solvent in lithium-ion battery electrolytes is a notable trend, especially with the rising demand for electric vehicles (EVs).
 

This compound’s ability to enhance battery performance and safety while being less toxic than alternatives is likely to drive its use in battery production. Moreover, the growing emphasis on circular economy practices and the development of bio-based dimethyl carbonate are trends that are anticipated to shape the market landscape, aligning with global sustainability goals and consumer preferences for eco-friendly products. Additionally, the rising trends in approvals and licensing support market demand.
 

In July 2021, Asahi Kasei finalized its first licensing agreement for a technology package aimed at producing high-purity ethylene carbonate (EC) and high-purity dimethyl carbonate (DMC) using CO2 as a key feedstock.
