Global Battery Grade Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC) Market Growth 2026-2032
Description
The global Battery Grade Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC) market size is predicted to grow from US$ 250 million in 2025 to US$ 427 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2026 to 2032.
Global production of battery-grade dimethyl carbonate (DMC) reached 142,000 tons in 2025, with an average price of approximately US$1,800 per ton.
Battery-grade dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is a high-purity compound commonly used as a solvent and electrolyte component in lithium-ion batteries. Its stability, high dielectric constant, and low viscosity make it a highly desirable ingredient in batteries for various applications, including electric vehicles, portable electronics, and energy storage systems. The industry's gross margin is approximately 20-35%.
Key market drivers include:
Explosive growth in new energy vehicles and energy storage; a strong positive correlation between lithium-ion battery production and electrolyte demand; and a surge in demand for battery-grade DMC driven by China's electrolyte shipments reaching 1.138 million tons. The demand for long-life, high-safety batteries in energy storage sectors (such as 5G base stations and data centers) further expands the market.
Environmental policies and the "dual-carbon" target are driving the chemical industry's low-carbon transformation. DMC, with its low toxicity and easy degradation properties, has become an ideal substitute for traditional solvents. The EU's Battery Regulation requires a 70% battery recycling rate by 2030, forcing the industry chain to upgrade towards green practices, leading to a continuous increase in demand for battery-grade DMC.
Technological iteration and deepening industry chain collaboration are also driving the industry. Leading companies are reducing costs through integrated "raw material-production-application" layouts (such as Hualu Hengsheng's self-supply of propylene oxide), while simultaneously collaborating with battery manufacturers to develop customized electrolyte formulations, increasing product added value. Furthermore, optimization of the PO process (such as extended catalyst life) and breakthroughs in the EO process are improving industry efficiency and profit margins.
