Posted by Rishab Gupta on December 26th, 2019

Market Insights:

Chloromethane is a highly flammable colorless gas which is produced naturally and is used to produce derivatives which have applications across several industry verticals. The global chloromethane market is set to witness average growth at a CAGR of 4.63% during the forecast period of 2016 to 2022. This and other projections have been made in Market Research Future's(MRFR) latest report on the subject. The chloromethane market is poised to reach an approximate evaluation of USD 2171.6 Mn by the end of 2022.

Chloromethane has extensive use in various industries through its derivatives which work as a significant driver as the original compound itself is cheaply and abundantly available. For instance, methyl chloride is used in the production of methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride, and chloroform. Methylene chloride is used in metal cleaning, as a blowing agent in the form of foam and in the pharmaceutical industry. during the forecast period, a significant driver of note is the growing silicone industry application where chloromethane derivatives find application in medical and personal care industries. Used in silicone polymer production, chloromethane demand has increased significantly along with the rapid growth faced by the various end-use industries that use the compound; these include automotive,personal care and electronics.
