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...

Virtual pipeline system market - Demand of cleaner energy alternatives, Trends 2025

Powered by the advancing concerns over renewability of energy sources has affected the natural gas industry positively. The transportation of oil and natural gas in a brisk, albeit safe manner has never been such an urgent requirement. With pipelines being the most common approach, they are the primary choice of supply of energy sources. Physical pipelines, being confined to specific geography, are not found to be effective in terms of unfeasible terrains or technically inaccessible areas. As a result, the virtual pipeline industry has been gaining recognition, and is slated to be one of the fastest growing markets in the upcoming years. According to a report published by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global virtual pipeline industry is anticipated to witness a steady growth during the forecast period of 2017-2025. The industry opportunity is expected to be supported by the brisk acceleration of the demand of transportation of liquid energy resources. Industrial space...
