Dimethyl Ether Market Share
LPG blending segment dominates the market, driven by increasing use of DME in LPG to improve combustion
LPG blending is the largest application segment, with DME being blended with LPG as a fuel additive to improve combustion and reduce harmful emissions. Countries like India, China, and Indonesia are actively promoting the use of DME-LPG blends as an alternative to conventional LPG to reduce imports levels. The segment is expected to continue dominating due to the increasing adoption of DME-LPG blends for household heating and cooking purposes.
As per dimethyl ether market analysis, the aerosol propellant segment is another major application of DME globally. DME is used as an environmentally friendly propellant in aerosol products like hair sprays, deodorants, and insecticides due to its low toxicity and flammability. The growing demand for personal care and household products is driving the use of DME as an aerosol propellant.
DME is also used as a chemical feedstock to produce various chemicals like formaldehyde, acetic acid, and olefins. The growing demand for these chemicals in various end-use industries is expected to drive the use of DME as a feedstock.
Methanol segment holds substantial share of the market as it aids in easy production of dimethyl ether
Methanol is a key raw material for producing dimethyl ether and holds the largest dimethyl market share due to its high demand and ease of production. Bio-based feedstock, including methanol, is another dominant segment in the market as the use of bio-based feedstock in transportation fuel applications is increasing. DME can replace diesel in various applications, which is driving the growth of this segment.
Moreover, the rising environmental concerns and the shift towards sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives are propelling the demand for bio-based feedstock in dimethyl ether production. Dimethyl ether is also manufactured using natural gas, which is considered a costly process. However, the easy availability of natural gas, driven by technological advancements and high research and development investments in the gas and oil market, is expected to drive the segment’s growth.
