DICUMYL PEROXIDE MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global dicumyl peroxide market size was USD 0.22 billion in 2024 and market is projected to touch USD 0.34 billion by 2033, exhibiting a Compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8% during the forecast period.

An organic chemical molecule known as cumyl peroxide, or DCP, is typically used to crosslink both natural and synthetic rubber. A crosslinking agent for elastomers and polymers is dichloroperoxide. Dicumyl peroxide is used to make tyres, rubber seals, tubing, cables, and other rubber- and polyolefin-based products. Expanded polystyrene's ability to act as a flame retardant when heated is catalysed by dichumyl peroxide.

In addition to being heavily present in polyolefin and rubber, which are used in the production of rubber seals, hose, tyres, wires, and other products, dichloroperoxide is also extensively used in the creation of frequently used polymers and resins. Numerous industries have become more dependent on dicumyl peroxide as a result of its numerous uses in the fast expanding processes, such as polymer modification, polymerization, and acrylic resins, etc. This has increased demand for dicumyl peroxide.

COVID 19 IMPACT

"COVID Restrictions Leads to Market Downhall"

Because of restrictions put in place as a result of the global spread of the coronavirus pandemic and lockdowns, the demand for dichloroperoxide fell dramatically in the first half of 2020. In 2020, both large and small manufacturing businesses had the worst period and incurred significant losses. Business firms in 2021 are concentrating on research and development to assure originality in their offerings in order to recover from earlier losses. These factors affected the market trends during pandemic.

LATEST TRENDS

"Adoption of Novel Strategies by Players to Boost Growth"

Leading businesses like Arkema S.A., TCI Chemicals (India) Pvt. Ltd., MP Biomedicals, LLC., Greenchemicals SpA, ACE CHEMICAL CORP., DONGSUNG Corporation, PERGAN GmbH, Akzo Nobel Chemicals B.V., Monomer-Polymer & Dajac Laboratories Inc., Sundow Polymers Co., Ltd., and others are investing heavily in the establishment of research institutes They are implementing business tactics like sales agreements, strategic alliances, acquiring technical know-how, product approvals, patents, and events, joint ventures, partnership agreements, collaborations, digital marketing, mergers and acquisitions, capacity utilization, technological advancements, etc. to dominate the global market for dichloroperoxide. These factors will boost the market growth

DRIVING FACTORS

"Wide applicability of polymers resulting in rise in market"

The market for rubber tyres is primarily driven by an increase in disposable income and an ever-growing automotive fleet on the road, which eventually drives up the market for dicumyl peroxide as well. Dicumyl peroxide-produced polymers have outstanding resilience and are widely used in the production of shoe soles, an industry that is expanding, mostly in poorer nations.

As dicumyl peroxide is used to insulate high voltage cables, the increased need to upgrade existing electrical networks is also anticipated to drive up demand for it. Along with this, massive expenditures in renewable energy sources might further propel the market for dicumyl peroxide during the forecast period.

"Vast Application in Key Areas to Augment Growth"

Since dicumyl peroxide has numerous applications in a variety of industries, including paint and coating, chemical, plastic, rubber, and adhesive, among others, the leading players in the dicumyl peroxide market continue to concentrate on the nations with booming industrial sectors in order to take advantage of the greatest growth opportunities. The market for dicumyl peroxide may experience moderate expansion as a result of ongoing activities and the expanding reliance of various sectors on the substance.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

"Increase In Cost Of Raw Material Impeding The Expansion"

Dicumyl peroxide is a substance registered under EU Regulation EC 1907/2006 (REACH) because to its very sensitive nature, yet the numerous limits placed on its exposure and usage have been presenting challenges for the makers. Furthermore, some processes, like the production of dicumyl peroxide and its use as a polymerization catalyst for synthetic and natural polymers, frequently result in its release into the environment, making it crucial for the players in the dicumyl peroxide market to adopt smart go-to-market strategies and cutting-edge technology in order to increase their sales and outpace the competition.

The cost of raw materials is rising, which is forcing producers to raise the price of dicumyl peroxide and, to some extent, impeding its expansion. Dicumyl peroxide is hazardous and combustible, thus strict government regulations place restrictions on manufacturing.
