Para-xylene is a key raw material for producing polyester fibers and resins, extensively used in textiles, packaging, and plastic bottles. Xylene is a versatile solvent widely used in the chemical industry for its excellent solvency properties. It is essential for dissolving resins, rubber, and various coatings. Xylene is a common component in paints and coatings due to its ability to control viscosity, improve gloss, and enhance durability. It produces adhesives and sealants, providing strong adhesion properties and quick drying times. In healthcare, xylene is a vital component in histopathology, where it serves as a clearing agent in tissue processing and slide preparation for pathological examination. Xylene-based inks are crucial for high-speed printing processes and are commonly used in the printing and packaging industry.
Furthermore, growing environmental consciousness has shifted towards bio-based xylene production, utilizing sustainable feedstocks. The broad sustainability objectives of lowering carbon emissions and reliance on fossil fuels align with this trend. Ortho-xylene is witnessing a surge in demand due to its application in phthalic anhydride production, which is used in manufacturing phthalate plasticizers. The expanding plastics industry drives this trend.
The petrochemical industry in the Asia-Pacific region has been on the rise, driven by population growth, urbanization, and increasing industrialization. as per the report titled Chemical and Petrochemical Statistics at a Glance-2022, released by the Indian Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, India ranks 4th in Asia and 6th globally, with chemicals sales valued at €104 billion in 2021. India's capital spending in World Chemicals is valued at €5.0 billion in 2021, compared to €3.4 billion in 2011. India's R & I spending in the chemicals industry is valued at €1.7 billion in 2021. Paraxylene was in the export of the top five Petrochemical Products to different countries during the FY 2021-22 with a value of Rs.14,478/- Cr. Therefore, growth in the petrochemical sector in China and India will help raise the demand in the regional market.
