Chloromethanes refer to a group of methane-derived compounds in which one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by chlorine atoms. This group primarily includes methyl chloride (chloromethane), methylene chloride (dichloromethane), chloroform (trichloromethane), and carbon tetrachloride. These substances vary in their degree of chlorination and are widely used in refrigerants, pharmaceutical intermediates, metal cleaning agents, blowing agents, solvents, and pesticides. Chloromethanes exhibit good solvent properties and volatility, but some of them pose health and environmental hazards, requiring strict safety handling and regulation compliance.

The current chloromethanes market shows steady growth, primarily driven by demand from downstream sectors such as refrigerants, pharmaceutical intermediates, and electronic cleaning agents. With the tightening of environmental regulations, some high-pollution solvents are being phased out, which has opened up substitution opportunities for chloromethanes in various industrial applications. Accelerated industrialization in developing countries such as China and India is also providing a favorable environment for market expansion.

Looking forward, the chloromethanes industry is expected to evolve toward environmentally friendly, high-purity, and customized product solutions. As global attention to green production and sustainable chemical feedstocks intensifies, companies are likely to increase their investment in cleaner production technologies and the upgrading of byproduct recovery systems. Emerging fields such as lithium battery electrolytes and specialty materials may also present new areas of growth for chloromethanes.

However, the industry also faces certain challenges. Chloromethanes are generally toxic and volatile, requiring strict control in transportation, storage, and use. Increasingly stringent environmental and safety regulations will raise compliance costs for producers. In addition, global market competition remains uncertain due to factors such as trade policy fluctuations, raw material price volatility, and uneven capacity distribution, all of which may impact business expansion and profitability.
