Ethylene Market is Expected to Reach US$ 234.2 Bn by 2020

Polyethylene Construction
Transparency Market Research has released a new market report titled “Ethylene Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014 - 2020.” According to the report, the global ethylene market was valued at US$ 156.0 Bn in 2013 and is projected to reach US$ 234.2 Bn by 2020, expanding at a CAGR of 6.0% from 2014 to 2020. 

Ethylene is an inflammable colorless gas with a sweet taste and odor. Ethylene is used extensively in industrial applications. Considering the broad range of industrial applications of ethylene, several prominent petrochemical companies across the world engage in the manufacture of ethylene and its diverse types of derivatives. These international petrochemical companies increase their production capacity of ethylene periodically. Moreover, demand for ethylene is expected to augment significantly in different end-use industries. This is ultimately leading to sustainable growth in the ethylene market. 


Polyethylene was the largest application segment of the ethylene market in 2013 and accounted for more than 50% of the total market. Distinct types of polyethylene are used for the manufacture of plastic that is used for producing everyday appliances, packaging, pipes, and toys. Polyethylene can be processed into hard products as well as soft and flexible components. Plastic produced from polyethylene can be seen in articles of all dimensions, with the simplest to the most complex shapes.

The growing consumption of polyethylene in the production of a diverse range of plastic components is consequently resulting in significant rise in the demand for ethylene. As far as growth rate is concerned, ethylene oxide is expected to be the fastest growing application segment of the ethylene market in the forecast period. The prospective growth in ethylene oxide can be mainly attributed to the rising demand for ethylene oxide derivatives such as ethylene glycol to produce plastic items, mainly bottles.  

Packaging was the largest end-user segment of the ethylene market with more than 30% share in 2013 and is expected to be the fastest growing segment of the ethylene market in the next few years. Several types of polyethylene such as PVC, low density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), and high density polyethylene (HDPE) are comprehensively used for producing different packaging products such as films, containers, drums, and pipes. The rising demand for all such products in the packaging industry is expected to drive the demand for ethylene in the packaging end-user segment.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
