The aliphatic hydrocarbon market is valued at US$3.594 billion in 2025 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.52% over the forecast period.

An aliphatic hydrocarbon is an organic compound composed of carbon and hydrogen. It is extracted by PFE using aqueous and organic extraction solvents. These compounds are used as fuels, lubricants, raw materials for producing fibers, industrial chemicals, plastics, rubbers, solvents, and other products. Most aliphatic hydrocarbons are flammable.

The market is growing due to its applications in paints & coatings, aerosol, oil & gas, adhesive & sealants, mining, etc. According to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), the production of cars and commercial vehicles rose by 10% in 2023 compared to the previous year.
  • In Germany, the production of detergents and personal care products was 11.2 billion euros in 2023, according to VCI (Verband der Chemischen Industrie)
  • In 2022, according to the China Surfactant Industry Alliance, the total output of surfactants reached 4.262 million tons, sales volume reached 4.209 million tons, and demand reached 3.6,329 million tons. China's surfactant imports were 245,700 tons, and exports were 874,800 tons. In 2022, China's surfactants were mainly exported to Russia, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia, and the Philippines.
  • In 2023, the top importers of ethylene, propylene, butylene, and butadiene were Germany, with 586,592,000 Kg imports, the United States, followed by China with 483,984,000 Kg, the European Union with 466,203,000 Kg, and Belgium, according to the World Integrated Trade Solution (WITS).

Aliphatic hydrocarbon market drivers

Growing demand for paints and coatings

The paint and coating industry worldwide has been growing due to several factors. The major drivers are the development and growth of new housing projects, rising infrastructural projects, growth in the automotive industry, rising aerospace and shipping industry, and growing awareness of using environment-friendly and sustainable materials. The paints and coatings have multiple applications in diverse industries. The usage of coating and paint gives gloss retention, as well as chemical, UV, and corrosion resistance. The architectural coatings segment's growth is also contributing to its demand.

Aliphatic hydrocarbon market geographical outlook

By geography, the aliphatic hydrocarbon market is segmented into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and Asia-Pacific. The major economies like China, Japan, India, and South Korea dominate the Asia-Pacific region. Some of the fastest-growing emerging economies are from this region, such as ASEAN countries.

The Asia-Pacific region is expected to see notable growth in the aliphatic hydrocarbon market due to its increasing applications in consumer electronics and the aerospace industry. Further, favorable government policies for the manufacturing of hydrocarbon will be boosting the market growth. These policies include a hydrocarbon exploration licensing policy, marketing and pricing freedom for new gas production from deepwater, ultra-deepwater, and high-pressure-high temperature areas, and a grant of extension to the production sharing contracts for small, medium-sized fields.

North America is expected to have a significant market share for aliphatic hydrocarbon products owing to the major demand from the paint and coating industry. For instance, in May 2024, PPG built a new paint and coatings manufacturing facility in Tennessee. It would be a $300 million investment in advanced manufacturing in North America. This 250,000-square-foot facility could supply products for transportation, heavy-duty equipment, building and construction, and consumer sectors.
