Thionyl chloride is used in various end-use industries such as agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, dyes & pigments, and organic synthesis. Rising adoption of pesticides in developing countries and developments in the pharmaceutical industry are expected to drive the growth of the thionyl chloride market over the forecast period.
Heightening concerns related to water treatment are likely to further fuel its growth engine in the near term. According to a latest report by FMI, the global thionyl chloride market is expected to reach a valuation of US$ 688 Mn by 2030.
However, a majority of end users of thionyl chloride are facing a massive slowdown due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. This is substantially widening the supply-demand gap, and, as such, straining the revenue pool of the thionyl chloride market.
Further, China – the epicenter of the pandemic – is characterized by a strong foothold of thionyl chloride manufacturers. The government has enacted large-scale lockdowns, resulting in short-term manufacturing and logistics paralysis.
