Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) Market Outlook 2031:

The global methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) market size was valued at USD 18.99 Billion in 2022 and is projected to reach USD 28.96 Billion by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period 2023 - 2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the easy availability of MTBE coupled with the low cost of the compound.

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) Market Outlook

MTBE is a flammable liquid that helps in producing an unleaded gasoline for the fuel of the cars. It increases the oxygen and octane level in gasoline and reduces the carbon dioxide emission to avoid air pollution.

MTBE is a relatively volatile chemical compound and moderately soluble in water. Therefore, the inhalation of the compound can cause irritation in the nose and throat.


The chemical compound is produced with the help of hydrocarbons containing isobutylene. According to Independent Commodity Intelligence Services (ICIS), over 90% of MTBE production is used in gasoline as oxygenating and a booster for octane. MTBE is more preferable than ethanol owing to its transportability and it also provides superior performance.

Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

  • Rapid industrialization is expected to drive the market growth.
  • Decreasing emission of diesel due to the utilization of MTBE can accelerate the market growth.
  • The COVID-19 outbreak has reduced consumption of gasoline has declined the demand for MTBE in the market. However, the relaxation in the restrictions amidst the COVID-19 pandemic is expected to spur the growth of the market.
  • Trade barriers in the export and import of MTBE due to government policies can hinder the growth of the market.
  • Rapid growth of the electric vehicle (EV) industry can create challenges for the market growth.
  • Increasing number of refineries in emerging economies, such as India and China, is expected to foster the growth of the market in the projected timeline.
  • Technological advancements in the chemical industry can create lucrative opportunities for the market growth.
