There are differences in the supply and demand structure of diethyl carbonate. Supply and demand in the Chinese market continue to grow.

Diethyl carbonate (DEC) is the dicarbonate of ethanol. It is a colorless and transparent liquid at room temperature. It has a special fragrance, is highly hygroscopic, and is flammable. Diethyl carbonate is an important raw material for chemical production and an important reagent and reaction carrier for organic synthesis. It can also be used for the synthesis of other compounds and is widely used in lithium battery electrolyte, resin, medicine, printing and dyeing and other fields.

Industrial Research Center released“China Carbonic Acid 2022-2027” The Diethyl Carbonate Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report shows that the development of the diethyl carbonate industry is closely related to the development of downstream application fields. In recent years, it has benefited from the development of diethyl carbonate industry in many countries around the world. The increase in support for the electric vehicle industry and the continuous expansion of production investment in the lithium battery electrolysis industry have driven the expansion of the global diethyl carbonate market. In 2021, the global diethyl carbonate market will be close to 2 billion yuan.

At present, the production structure of the global diethyl carbonate industry is greatly unbalanced. Research on diethyl carbonate in developed countries and regions such as Europe, the United States, and Japan started earlier. The development of the diethyl carbonate industry is relatively complete, and production There are many companies with large scale and strong competitiveness on a global scale, such as Ube Industries of Japan and BASF of Germany. Europe, the United States, Japan and other regions are the main supply areas of diethyl carbonate in the world, and the supply capacity of diethyl carbonate in other regions is weak.

In addition, due to the different development status of downstream industries in different regions, the application field structure of diethyl carbonate is also somewhat different. For example, in North America, Europe and other regions, the application proportion of diethyl carbonate in the field of lithium battery electrolyte is more than 35%, while in Japan, South Korea and other regions, the application proportion of diethyl carbonate in the field of lithium battery electrolyte is It is around 30%; in Europe, North America and other regions, the application proportion of diethyl carbonate in the field of textile printing and dyeing is relatively small, accounting for more than 13%. However, in Southeast Asia, South America, Africa and other regions, the application proportion of diethyl carbonate in the field of textile printing and dyeing is relatively small. Applications account for a relatively large share of more than 15%.

my country’s research and development of diethyl carbonate started late and it needed to be imported before 2000. After long-term development and technology optimization, after 2000, my country has certain strength and production capacity in the production of diethyl carbonate. After years of development, my country has developed into an important producer of diethyl carbonate in the world. At this stage, domestic diethyl carbonate products can basically meet domestic demand, production technology has significantly improved, and product quality has also been improved. Some products are exported abroad.

In terms of demand, new energy vehicle lithium batteries, high-performance resins, pharmaceuticals and other industries are key areas encouraged by the country. In recent years, with the support of policies, they have developed rapidly, and the demand for diethyl carbonate products in downstream industries has grown rapidly. In the future, new energy vehicles, high-performance resins, pharmaceuticals, etc. will continue to develop with the key support of the state. At the same time, diethyl carbonate companies will not only expand the scope of product applications, but China’s demand for diethyl carbonate will further increase. It is expected that China The market size of diethyl carbonate will still maintain a rapid growth trend, and the industry development prospects are good.
