The global ethylbenzene market size is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to rising production of styrene.
Ethylbenzene is derived from petroleum-based products and coal tar. This chemical compound is an inflammable and colorless in nature. It is produced by reacting ethylene and benzene at temperature 250°C. Ethylbenzene is used as an anti-knock agent and natural gas recovery agent. Pesticides, paints, inks, cellulose acetate, and synthetic rubber are manufactured by using ethylbenzene.
The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the market. It has plummeted the demands for products including exterior panels, reagents for paints and coatings, automotive dashboard, styrene-acrylic emulsions, and ethylbenzene-based polymers.

Based on applications, the ethylbenzene market is divided into styrene, gasoline, diethylbenzene, natural gas, paint, asphalt and naphtha. The styrene segment is further segregated into acrylonitril-butadiene-styrene (ABS), styrene-acrylonitril resins (SBR), styrene-butadiene elastomers and latex, and unsaturated polyester resins. The styrene segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to increase use of styrene precursor to manufacture chemicals such as ABS, SBR, resins, protective coatings, and styrene plastics. However, the paint segment is anticipated to hold a key share of the market in the coming years owing to rising production of vehicles.
On the basis of end-users, the market is segregated into packaging, electronics, construction, agriculture, automotive, and others. The packaging segment is projected to expand at a considerable CAGR during the forecast period due to increasing demand for polystyrene for packaging applications in the food, and electronics & electrical industries. On the other hand, the construction segment is anticipated to account for a major market share during the forecast period due to rising demand for ABS, styrene acrylic emulsions, and SBR.
In terms of regions, the global ethylbenzene market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. The market in Asia Pacific is expected to constitute a key share of the market during the forecast period owing to increasing demands for reagents and solvents such as dyes, perfumes, and synthetic rubber. However, Europe is anticipated to account for a significant market share during the forecast period due to rapid development of innovative technology.
