Report Code: CMR 73939 Report Format: PDF + Excel

Zirconocene Dichloride Market Overview

The Zirconocene dichloride market size is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 3.6% from 2022 to 2027. Zirconocene dichloride is an organometallic compound composed of zirconium central atom with two cyclopentadienyl & chlorine ligands. The compound is made from zirconium (IV) chloride-THF complex and sodium cyclopentadienide and when reacted with lithium aluminum hydride it gives zirconocene hydrochloride. Zirconocene dichloride is majorly used as a catalyst in organic synthetic processes for making products like dyes, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals and also it is used in the making of polyethylene resin. Hence, due to its catalytic properties, zirconocene dichloride is used in sectors like automotive, construction, textiles, cosmetics, plastics and pharmaceuticals. Factors like an increase in construction activities, the growing production volume of automobiles and an increase in consumption of cosmetics are driving the growth of the Zirconocene dichloride market. However, the negative effects of zirconocene dichloride if exposed to the human body, can restrict its industrial usage which can hamper the growth of the Zirconocene dichloride industry.

COVID-19 Impact

Necessary measures taken by countries all across the world such as implementing lockdown had a negative impact on major end users of Zirconocene dichloride such as automotive, construction and plastics. Lack of availability of labor and stoppage of raw material supplies led to a decrease in the productivity of these sectors. For instance, according to the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturing, in 2020, the global motor vehicle production was 77.7 million units showing a decrease of 13% compared to 2019. Also, according to Office for National Statistics, in 2020, new construction work in Great Britain including private housing and private commercial buildings decreased by 11.9% as the impact of Coronavirus. Further, according to Plastic Europe, in 2020, European plastic production was 55 million tons showing a decrease of 5% compared to 2019. Zirconocene dichloride as a catalyst is used in the production of polyethylene which is majorly used in these sectors. Hence the decrease in productivity of such sectors reduced the demand for polyethylene in them, which negatively impacted the usage of zirconocene dichloride in polyethylene production. This decreased the growth of the zirconocene dichloride industry.

Zirconocene Dichloride Market Segment Analysis – by Form

Crystal held a significant share in the Zirconocene Dichloride market in 2021 and it is expected to grow with a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period. Zirconocene dichloride is found in little white needle crystals which are used as stabilizers for acid anhydrides and as catalysts in the organic synthesis process. Rapid development in major end users of organic synthesis products like plastics and automotive has positively impacted the usage of zirconocene dichloride. For instance, according to Plastic Europe, in 2019, world plastic production was 368 million tons showing an increase of 2% compared to 2018. Further, according to European Automobile Manufacturing Association, over the first 10 months of 2021, new car registrations in the EU were up 2.2% totaling around 8.2 million units, compared to 2020. An increase in the productivity of automobiles and plastics will create more demand for organic synthesis products like dyes which are used in them. This result in more usage of zirconocene dichloride in dyes production. This will positively impact the growth of the Zirconocene Dichloride industry.

Zirconocene Dichloride Market Segment Analysis – by End User

The construction sector held a significant share in the Zirconocene Dichloride market in 2021 and it is estimated to grow with a CAGR of 4.1% during the forecast period. Zirconocene dichloride consisting of cyclopentadienyl ligands is used as a polymerization catalyst for making polyethylene resins, which is used in the construction sector in concrete curing, as lining material and as roofing sheets. The rapid development in the construction sector and increasing rate of construction activities have positively impacted the usage of polyethylene. For instance, according to Statistics Canada, in January 2021, total residential and non-residential construction was 7.8 million showing a 6% increase from 2020 same month. Further, according to US Census Bureau, in January 2022, total construction output was 1.67 million showing an increase of 8% compared to 2021 same month. Such an increase in the productivity of the construction sector will create more demand for polyethylene to be used in construction, resulting in more usage of zirconocene dichloride as a polymerization catalyst for polyethylene production. This will positively impact the growth of the Zirconocene Dichloride industry.

Zirconocene Dichloride Market Segment Analysis – by Geography

Asia-Pacific held the largest share in the Zirconocene Dichloride market in 2021, with a share of over 27%.
