The market size is estimated based on the revenue generated from the sales of isopropyl alcohol to end-use industries. Parameters such as production volume and retail sales have been considered while deriving the market size of the global isopropyl alcohol market.
One trend in the market is capacity expansions and new plants. The global isopropyl alcohol market has been witnessing expansions in production capacities in the past few years. The isopropyl alcohol markets in China and India have developed at a rapid pace with the continuously increasing production capacities by producers.
One driver in the market is high volume consumption in solvents. Isopropyl alcohol is one of the mostly used solvents due to its excellent solvency properties. It can be directly used in applications including inks, pesticides and herbicides formulations, resins production, surface coatings, and disinfectants and cleaning products.
