Dioctyl terephthalate (DOTP) is widely used as a plasticizer on account of its toxicological and physical properties such as high transparency, excellent durability, and high thermal resistance. Market Research Future (MRFR)'s new report on the global dioctyl terephthalate market is a compilation of key trends and patterns that are likely to govern the market over the forecast period of 2018-2023, The report asserts that the global dioctyl terephthalate market is likely to rise from a valuation of USD 1,203.2 Mn in 2018 to USD 1,864.7 Mn by 2023 at a CAGR of 9.16%.
Conventional phthalates are progressively being replaced with Dioctyl Terephthalate Market Size due to the various advantages aligned with it. Convectional phthalates are associated with the cause of various diseases such as asthma and breast cancer, which has barred its application in end use cases. Dioctyl terephthalates are an ecologically viable and harmless alternative to conventional phthalates which has raised its application across major end use industries. The expanding consumer goods industry has unlocked a host of growth potentials for the dioctyl terephthalate market. They are used for diverse applications in the consumer goods industry, and a majority of the market demand is being generated from the developing regions.
Various regulatory authorities in the developed countries have raised their concerns over the use of toxic plasticizers which has encouraged the adoption of dioctyl terephthalate. In addition, the biodegradation process of dioctyl terephthalate by the Rhodococcus rhodochrous bacteria produces significant amounts of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, which is otherwise expensive to produce by commercial methods. 2-ethylhexanoic acid has multifarious industrial applications which include as an automotive coolant, synthetic lubricant, wetting agent, and a defoaming agent in pesticides. Such desirable properties have prompted manufacturers to use dioctyl terephthalate, which is fueling the growth of the market.
