According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global 2-Ethylhexanoic Acid market size was valued at US$ 619 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 640 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 0.5% during review period.
2-Ethylhexoic acid (2-EHA) is a dense, clear, colorless to yellow, high boiling liquid, with a faint specific odor. It is immiscible with water, but miscible with almost all conventional organic solvents. It is mainly used as a chemical intermediate for the manufacture of polyvinylchloride (PVC) stabilizers, plasticizers, coating driers, synthetic lubricants, catalyst and pharmaceuticals. The main application is the metallic salts of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, and they are used as driers for odorless paints, inks, varnishes, and enamels. Cobalt and manganese are the most important driers.
The top five global producers of 2-ethylhexanoic acid are Perstorp, Oxea, Kh Neochem, Eastman and BASF, with a combined market share of 66%.
Europe is the largest consumption market in the world. Europe is the sole exporting region in the globe. The consumption shares of China, USA, Europe and Japan are 17.49%, 26.46%, 34.28% and 11.85% in 2015.
