Dispersing Agents Market: Key Drivers, Trends, and Challenges
The research studied the historical data considered for years, with 2021 as the base year and 2022 as the estimated year, and produced drivers, trends, and challenges for the market.
Key Dispersing Agents Market Driver
Growing construction activities is one of the key drivers supporting market growth. Dispersing agents are widely used in construction applications to reduce water requirements in concrete admixtures. They also disperse cement when water is mixed with concrete and increase the utilization of cement. Calcium and sodium lignosulfonates are the most commonly used lignosulfonates in concrete admixtures. The demand for concrete admixtures is widely supported by growing construction activities globally. For instance, the 2020 budget of the US proposed a sum of $200 billion for infrastructural development. In emerging economies, such as India, the announcement of 100% foreign direct investment (FDI) for townships and settlement projects is expected to spur the demand for dispersing agents during the forecast period.
Key Dispersing Agents Market Trend
The rise in demand from end-user industries is one of the key dispersing agents market trends contributing to the market growth. There is a direct correlation between the automotive, construction, paints and coatings, and oil and gas industries, as the development of the infrastructure and automotive sectors have resulted in the growth of the market for dispersants in the paints and coatings industry. Similarly, the oil and gas industry has observed rapid growth with an increase in demand from the automobile and energy sectors. Improved workability of fluids due to more stable and easier suspension of particles due to the addition of dispersants has led to an increase in the use of dispersants in different end-user industries. These factors are expected to result in the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Key Dispersing Agents Market Challenge
Volatile costs of raw materials are one of the factors hindering market growth. The cost of raw materials fluctuates in the market for many reasons, some of these being the availability in a specific market or the pricing structure of the raw material. Further, the costs of these raw materials differ in different countries as the pricing structure is based on their export or import by the countries that produce these raw materials. This will be a significant challenge to the growth of the market during the forecast period.

- in crude oil prices: The volatility of crude oil prices is one of the key challenges in the global commodity chemicals market. The volatility of crude oil prices impacts the pricing strategies and margins of adhesives, sealants, lubricants, oilfield cleaners, polymers, as well as plastic additives. The margins of the commodity chemicals are inherently dependent on the global prices of crude oil, which is one of the key raw materials. Any volatility in the prices of crude oil causes uncertainty in end-use markets and eventually influences the margins of all the key stakeholders, including the vendors in the global commodity chemicals market. These fluctuations adversely affect the profitability, cost of sales, and the ability of vendors to effectively address the demands of consumers.
