Aliphatic Hydrocarbon Solvents & Thinners Market Drivers and Opportunities:

Increasing Demand in Paints & Coatings

Historically, the paint and coatings sector represents a significant source of demand for aliphatic hydrocarbons, particularly in terms of their main use as a solvent and thinner for coatings. Due to the continued growth of the paints and coatings market, this will remain the primary factor for future growth within this segment. Aliphatic hydrocarbons are critical to the manufacturing of coatings due to their ability to modify such characteristics as; rate of dry, gloss and adhesion. Furthermore, aliphatic hydrocarbons serve as versatile solvents for applications as varied as decorative (e.g., household paints) to industrial (e.g., machinery, automobiles, infrastructure). Unlike aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents are recognized and valued for their relatively lower levels of toxicity and lower levels of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, consistent with increasing international environmental regulations, which are providing additional impetus for the replacement of traditional aromatic hydrocarbon solvents with aliphatic hydrocarbon-based solvents such as mineral spirits, in regions with stricter environmental regulations (e.g., Europe and North America). In addition to regulatory factors, global growth in construction, automotive refinishing, and the development of new infrastructure are contributing to increased usage of solvents.

As urbanization continues and demand for durable, attractive surface finishes increases, coating manufacturers will continue to turn to aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents to satisfy performance and regulatory requirements. Furthermore, new and innovative formulations that are environmentally friendly will continue to broaden the potential to utilize solvent-based coatings.

Rising Industrial Cleaning and Degreasing Applications

Major industry to experience growth through the increased use of aliphatic hydrocarbons and primers will be in industrial cleaning and degreasing. Businesses must continually clean and maintain machinery and other pieces of equipment used during the production process in order for operations to run efficiently - to properly perform their job - the product produced from that operation to meet required quality standards, and for all the employees of the businesses producing products to have a safe working environment. Aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents are primarily used to remove oils, greases, waxes, and other contaminants from metal parts, mechanical components, and production lines used to produce products for businesses. These solvents have very strong solvency power and are much less toxic than any of the traditional harsh cleaning chemicals; therefore, aliphatic solvents have become widely used in different industries as effective but also safer cleaning solutions. Aliphatic solvents are also compatible with most materials which means there is less of a chance of cleaning a component using a degreasing agent and damaging or compromising that component during cleaning it's another reason for the popularity of aliphatic solvents within the industrial sector.

In addition, with the shift of most industries or businesses implementing sustainable maintenance practices, the demand for custom blended solvents to meet individual customers' unique cleaning needs has increased. Manufacturers have been working on products that are not only effective but also environmentally responsible; therefore, they have been developing solvent formulations that have reduced levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and assist in achieving higher levels of biodegradability. The increased use of aliphatic hydrocarbons in this industrial sector can also be directly attributed to the explosion of manufacturing industries (i.e., automotive, aerospace, electronics, heavy machinery, etc.) increasing their own productivity through using precision cleaning techniques and increasing the longevity of production I equipment. Additionally, the focus on preventive maintenance within modern manufacturing operations reinforces the need for reliable degreasing chemical agents. Significant growth in global manufacturing production, as well as sustainability becoming an integral part of operations, will help ensure that aliphatic hydrocarbons continue to be used by manufacturers to create products used throughout the world.
