The global demand for Perchloroethylene Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD XX MN by 2028 from USD XX MN in 2021 with a CAGR of XX% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Perchloroethylene is also known as PERC. It is a non-flammable, colourless liquid solvent with a sweet, ether-like odour. They are commonly used as solvents for removing grease from metal parts and as carriers for silicones, fabrics, rubbers, and adhesives. It is also an important ingredient in paint removers, adhesives, stain removers, and typewriter repair fluids. PERC is also used as a solvent for various chemicals found in hydrofluorocarbon, like dry cleaning, metal cleaning & degreasing, isomerization & reforming, and others.
Market Dynamics
The growing demand for PERC from the refrigerant and solvent markets are two major factors that may contribute to the growth of this market. Further, due to its high boiling point, it is highly preferred for heavy-duty applications requiring high temperatures to remove contaminants. Besides, surging consumer expenditure on dry cleaning, laundry services, and busier lifestyles prompts perchloroethylene market growth. Moreover, the large-scale application of these chemicals in various end-user industries such as automotive, textiles, oil and gas, paints and coatings may contribute to the growth of this market. Likewise, factors such as the growing market for the metal manufacturing industry, economic growth rate and increasing industrialization are expected to drive the market's growth. However, stringent government rules and regulations and rising concerns regarding the PERC's harmful effects on human health may hamper the market growth.
