摘要
This study analyzes the US solvents industry by markets (manufacturing, and services and other), functions (vehicles/carriers/thinners, antifreezes and deicers, cleaners, extraction agents and other) and products (conventional and green). For the purposes of this study, “conventional solvents” are products which have had an established presence in the solvents market; “green solvents” are either products which were developed or introduced to the solvents market as environmentally preferable alternatives to other solvents, or extant products (e.g., hydrogen peroxide, propylene glycol) which, although not traditionally used as solvents, have established a presence in the solvents market largely due to their environmental characteristics. This categorization of products is not intended to constitute specific judgments of individual product safety or environmental suitability. While most of these chemicals are used in non-solvent applications, only solvent volume is included here. In addition, the study discusses competing technologies, and environmental, regulatory and other market environment factors.
Historical data for 1997, 2002 and 2007 and forecasts to 2012 and 2017 are presented for solvent demand in pounds. As used in this study, the term “demand” refers to US sales or apparent consumption and denotes US production plus imports, less exports. Tabular details may not add to totals due to independent rounding. Ratios may be rounded for the sake of clarity.
Information and data on solvents were obtained from several primary and secondary sources, including government agencies and trade associations, industry participants, online databases and other Freedonia studies. Primary information was gathered through consultations with personnel of participating companies. Secondary data and background information were obtained from various publications, including Chemical Week , Chemical & Engineering News , ICIS Chemical Business , Ink Maker , Paints & Coatings Industry and others. Demand figures throughout this study are related to various indicators for comparative purposes and to facilitate further analysis. Tabular details may not add to totals due to independent rounding, and calculated ratios reflect unrounded numbers. Macroeconomic indicators employed in this study were obtained from The Freedonia Group Consensus Forecasts dated April 2008. Due to the Bureau of Economic Analysis’ use of chain-weighted price indices, inflation-adjusted Gross Domestic Product components (2000 dollars) do not add to the total. In the Industry Structure section, solvent-related revenues by company are estimates based on information garnered from company annual reports and/or SEC Form 10K filings and consultation with multiple sources.
