MARKET INTRODUCTION

Meta-xylene is a hydrocarbon compound, also known as m-xylene. Meta-xylene is one of the three isomers of xylene. Meta-xylene is not soluble in water and soluble in organic solvents.Xylenes are primarily derived from the crude petroleum. Meta-xylene has properties such as water and stain resistance, outstanding hardness, weathering, corrosion resistance, etc. Mostly, meta-xylene is used for the production of isophthalic acid. Meta-xylene is also used for the formulation of 2,4- and 2,6-xylidine. Meta-xylene has adverse narcotic effects on human health in case of high exposure to the compound.

MARKET DYNAMICS

The extensive usage of meta-xylene in the formulation ofisophthalic acid will drive the demand growth for the meta-xylene market. Furthermore, the growing usage of isophthalic acid in aerospace coatings and architectural coatings will further imply in the demand growth for the meta-xylene market. Predominantly, health issues related to adverse narcotic effects on broad exposure to the meta-xylene may hamper the growth for the meta-xylene market. However, growing demand for isophthalic acid for plastic manufacturing will create the opportunity for the meta-xylene market.
