Ethylene is a key raw material used in the manufacture of plastics, which is a major component of laser materials. Prices of ethylene are 96% correlated to oil prices; hence, any fluctuation in crude oil prices directly impacts ethylene prices. The laser materials market has witnessed volatility in polyethylene prices on account of rising oil and natural gas prices. Continued volatility in product prices is a restraint to the market as it limits consumer spending and prompts customers to defer spending. Moreover, increased crude oil prices will also increase the transportation cost and product price.
