Report Overview
About Xylene
Xylenes are petrochemicals produced during the manufacturing of coke fuel, which involves catalytic reforming and coal carbonization. They are also extracted from natural resources, such as tar, and through wood distillation. Due to their various chemical properties, they are used in several end-user industries, such as construction, textile, packaging, automotive, and medical, as a feedstock or as a solvent. Generally, xylenes are produced as a part of BTX aromatics. They are extracted from the product known as reformate. They are also derived from various sources within a refinery including toluene disproportionation and pyrolysis gasoline.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global xylene market to grow at a CAGR of 7.49% during the period 2017-2021.
