This forecast and others appear in the Isocyanate Market Report 2016-2026: Consumption (MT) & Market Forecasts ($) by Type (Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI), Methylene Diphenyl Diisocyanate (MDI), Aliphatic, Others) & Application Forecasts (Rigid Foam, Flexible Foam, Paints & Coatings, Adhesive & Sealants, Elastomers & Binders) Analysis of Top Companies BASF, Dow Chemical Company, Covestro, Chemtura, Evonik Industries, Huntsman Corporation published by the key player.

The consumption of isocyanates has increased significantly in recent years and is expected to grow at a more rapid pace during the coming decade. This report analyses the global isocyanate market for 4 key products: TDI, MDI, aliphatic and other. MDI and TDI are the largest isocyanate submarkets, while aliphatic has the smallest market share. MDI will retain a leading position in terms of market value between 2016-2026 due to its versatility and favourable characteristics that makes it suitable for various applications. In contrast, aliphatic products will be characterised by a more rapid growth rate over the coming years. Other products are expected to have the lowest growth rate in the next ten years.
