Latest News- Dimethyl Carbonate Market: Polycarbonate synthesis is expected to lead the Application segment during 2025-2029

The Dimethyl Carbonate Market is being driven by Increasing applications of polycarbonate materials in end-user industries

The Dimethyl Carbonate Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 812 million. In the context of escalating energy scarcity and ecological concerns, the global fuel industry is seeking cleaner, more sustainable alternatives. Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) has emerged as a promising oxygenated fuel additive due to its environmentally friendly attributes and potential to enhance fuel performance. Unlike methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE), which presents environmental hazards, DMC offers a safer, non-toxic, and biodegradable alternative. When combined with diesel or gasoline, DMC significantly improves combustion efficiency, resulting in decreased emissions of hydrocarbons, particulate matter, and carbon monoxide. These reductions not only contribute to cleaner air but also boost engine performance and fuel economy. The increasing awareness of climate change and the necessity to minimize greenhouse gas emissions have expedited the integration of DMC into fuel formulations.
