Diacetone Market Segment Analysis – by Application

The paints & coatings segment held a significant Diacetone market share in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.0% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Diacetone has major demand as a solvent for paint and coatings applications and protects the metallic substrate from corrosion. The water-based paint and coating application are widely growing in the construction sector for beautifying building structures, architectural coatings and others. The construction industry is rapidly accelerating due to the rise in residential projects, infrastructural development activities and green building trends. For instance, according to the Office for National Statistics, the monthly construction output increased by 1.5% in terms of volume in May 2022, marking a rise of 0.3% from April 2022. Thus, with the major utility of diacetone or DAA in major industries, majorly construction for paint & coatings applications, the paint & coatings segment is anticipated to grow rapidly in the diacetone market during the forecast period.

Diacetone Market Segment Analysis – by End-use Industry

The building & construction held a significant Diacetone Market share in 2021 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4% during the forecast period 2022-2027. Diacetone alcohol (DAA) or 4-hydroxy-4methyl-2-pentanone has flourishing applications and growth scope in the building and construction sector for water-based paint and coatings, wood varnishes, cement and others. The fast-paced growth of the building and construction sector is influenced by growth factors such as rising trends for residential projects, infrastructural development and urbanization. For instance, according to the census of the U.S., in November 2020, privately-owned housing units authorized by building permits in November were at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,639,000, marking a rise of 6.2% over the year 2019. According to the International Trade Administration (ITA), the forecasted construction value in Mexico saw growth from US$72.89 billion in 202 to US$82.56 billion in 2022. With the rapid growth scope for construction activities, the demand for diacetone for architectural coatings, paints and beautification of building structures is increasing, which, in turn, is anticipated to boost its growth scope in the building and construction industry during the forecast period.
