Global Diphenyl Carbonate Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Diphenyl Carbonate market size is expected to reach $ 7215 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 7.9% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Diphenyl Carbonate, white needle-like crystal, melting point 78~83°C, boiling point 302~306°C, easily soluble in acetone, hot alcohol, benzene, carbon tetrachloride, ether, glacial acetic acid and other organic solvents, insoluble in water, can Decomposed by hot alkali. Diphenyl Carbonate can be used to synthesize a variety of organic intermediates and polymer materials, such as polycarbonate, methylparaben, monoisocyanate, diisocyanate, etc.; it can also be used as a plasticizer, solvent and heat source for polyamide and polyester, etc. With the development of new environmentally friendly processes for synthesizing high-quality polycarbonate using Diphenyl Carbonate and bisphenol A as raw materials, and the continuous expansion of polycarbonate application fields, the demand for Diphenyl Carbonate has also increased rapidly. Since Diphenyl Carbonate is chemical intermediate, all most Diphenyl Carbonate manufacturers on the market produce and sell their own products for the production of polycarbonate (PC).
As a reasonable and environmentally friendly chemical product, diphenyl carbonate (DPC) has a rising demand worldwide and the industry is developing rapidly.
With the increasing environmental issues and regulatory restrictions on the phosgene production route, the demand for safer and more sustainable non-phosgene synthesis methods is also growing, which further stimulates the market development. Advances in catalytic technology and process optimization are improving the production efficiency of diphenyl carbonate (DPC), making it a more viable environmentally friendly raw material for polycarbonate production. The pursuit of lightweight and durable materials in the global automotive, electronics and consumer goods industries continues to drive the demand for diphenyl carbonate (DPC)-derived polycarbonates.
From a regional perspective, the Asia-Pacific region (especially Japan and South Korea) dominates the market in terms of production and consumption with its strong industrial base, expanding electronics and automotive industries, and large-scale polycarbonate production facilities. Europe and North America are also important markets, but the growth is more mature and focuses on sustainability, specialty applications and regulatory compliance.
From the perspective of market competition, with the expansion of the industry scale, the number of industry manufacturers is currently on an upward trend, and market competition has temporarily flattened. Most companies use all or part of their diphenyl carbonate products for self-sale. Major global diphenyl carbonate (DPC) producers include SABIC, Covestro, Lotte Chemical, LG Chem, etc., and the top three producers account for 60% of the market share.
The opportunities in the diphenyl carbonate (DPC) market lie in the development of green chemical pathways, especially bio-based or CO2-derived DPC, and the growing demand for high-performance engineering plastics.
However, the market is also subject to risks, including price fluctuations of raw materials such as phenol and dimethyl carbonate, strict environmental regulations, and competitive pressure from alternative polycarbonate raw materials. Geopolitical turmoil and supply chain imbalances may further affect cost structure and supply. Nevertheless, with the increasing emphasis on sustainability and advanced materials, the diphenyl carbonate (DPC) market is expected to maintain a moderate upward trend in the next few years.
