Trends, and Forecast 2016 - 2024”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
E-Series
Glycol Ether Market: Overview
Glycol
ethers are solvents based on alkyl ethers of ethylene/propylene
glycol. These solvents have high boiling points and solvent
properties of low-molecular-weight ethers and alcohols. Glycol ethers
were formerly known as ethyl cellosolves. The word ‘cellosolve’
was registered by Union Carbide Corp. for solvents used for gums,
resins, and cellulose esters as a U.S. trademark in 1924. Then, the
name was changed to glycol ethers. Glycol ethers is a family of more
than 30 solvents. Glycol ethers can provide benefits such as improved
wetting properties of water-based products, long-term stability and
good shelf-life of products, allowance to work at low concentrations,
and little or no odor.

Glycol
ethers are of two types: E-series and P-series, depending on whether
they are made from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide. Ethylene oxide
is reacted with various alcohols such as methanol, n-butanol, and
phenol to produce E-series glycol ethers. Ethylene oxide when reacted
with n-butanol yields butyl cellosolve (ethylene glycol n-butyl
ether). The word butyl designates alcohol from which glycol ether is
produced as n-butanol. Butyl cellosolve contains an alcohol group. It
can be reacted with additional ethylene oxide to yield di-ethylene
glycol butyl ether.

Glycol Ether Market: Dynamics and Trends
E-series
glycol ethers are used in medicines, sunscreens, cosmetics, inks,
dyes, and water-based paints. P-series glycol ethers are used in
de-greasers, aerosol paints, cleaners, and adhesives. Both E-series
glycol ethers and P-series glycol ethers are used as intermediates to
undergo further chemical reactions to produce glycol di-ethers and
glycol ether acetates. Paints and coatings witness high demand
globally.
The
properties and composition of E-series glycol ether makes it an
essential component of different types of coatings. Types of coatings
include but are not limited to oil coatings, marine coatings, and
wood coatings. A major property of E-series glycol ether is good
solubility in water and most organic solvents and oils. Glycol ethers
do not accumulate in the environment. They get broken down in the air
and aquatic environment within hours through photolysis. All of them
are inherently biodegradable and most of them are readily
biodegradable. They get biodegraded within hours in a waste water
treatment plant and within days in the environment. Glycol ethers
used in consumer products or for professional applications are
extensively tested. If used in accordance with the manufacturers’
instructions and if kept under the right conditions, they present no
risk to health. The two of the E-series glycol ethers viz.
methoxyethanol and ethoxyethanol are known to be toxic for
reproduction in humans. For this reason, their use in the production
of consumer products has been restricted globally.
E-Series
Glycol Ether Market: Segmentation
The
E-series glycol ether market can be segmented by type into: EGPE
(ethylene glycol propyl ether), EGBE (ethylene glycol butyl ether),
EGBEA (ethylene glycol butyl ether acetate), and others; by
application into paints & coatings, printing inks, cleaners,
cosmetics & pharmaceuticals, and others; and by region into North
America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East &
Africa.
E-Series
Glycol Ether Market: Region-wise Outlook
The
Asia Pacific E-series glycol ether market is expected to witness high
growth during the forecast period, due to the increased rate of its
adoption in paints and coatings. South Korea is an emerging market
for E-series glycol ether in the region. Asia Pacific is closely
followed by North America.
