세계의 1,6-헥산디올 시장, 수요, 생산능력, 산업 전망

1,6-Hexanediol (HDO) is a colorless organic compound characterized by two hydroxyl groups. It is primarily produced through the hydrogenation of adipic acid and its esters. Owing to its versatile chemical properties, 1,6-Hexanediol serves as a critical intermediate in the manufacture of polyurethanes, polyester resins, and acrylates. Beyond polymers, it finds applications as a solvent, dispersant, and wetting agent in paints & coatings, adhesives, and inks. Due to its antimicrobial attributes, it is also employed as a preservative in the cosmetics and personal care industry.

Market Dynamics and Growth Drivers

The global 1,6-Hexanediol market is poised for robust growth, driven by increasing demand in the production of plastics and polymers across multiple industries including construction, automotive, electronics, and textiles. Its utilization in polyurethane adhesives, elastomers, and UV-curable coatings has expanded, contributing to strong market performance during the historical period from 2018 to 2023.

Environmental regulations, the availability of raw materials, and ongoing technological advancements play a crucial role in shaping the market's future trajectory. Additionally, investments in capacity expansion by leading producers are estimated to further fuel growth.
