Global Acetylene Gas Market to Grow at 2.32% During 2025-2033, Fostered by Expanding Applications

January 20, 2025 | Chemical & Materials

As per the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Acetylene Gas Market Report by Production Method (Calcium Carbide, Hydrocarbon Pyrolysis), Application (Chemical Synthesis, Welding and Cutting, Metal Fabrication, and Others), and Region 2025-2033,” the global acetylene gas market size reached USD 6.2 Billion in 2024. Also known as ethyne, acetylene (C2H2) is a flammable, colorless gas produced from hydrocarbon sources, such as naphtha, crude oil and coal. It has a faint garlic-like odor due to the presence of phosphine and becomes highly explosive when heated, liquefied, compressed or mixed with air. It is widely utilized as a fuel, chemical building block and raw material in the production of polyester plastics and polyurethane. Moreover, acetylene is one of the most preferred gases used in various industries, such as aerospace, automotive and transportation, for oxyacetylene welding and cutting.

Global Acetylene Gas Market Trends:

Acetylene gas is utilized in synthesizing chemicals, such as acetic acid, acetaldehyde and acetic anhydride. Moreover, as it assists in creating lubrication between the surface of different materials, it finds applications in the glass and materials processing industries for carbon coating. Apart from this, acetylene gas is used for various metalworking applications, such as brazing, welding, soldering, heat treating and oxyacetylene cutting. Furthermore, on account of rising environmental concerns and stringent government policies, leading players are increasing their R&D activities to generate acetylene gas from biogas and other bio-based fuels. Looking forward, the market value is projected to reach USD 7.7 Billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 2.32% during 2025-2033.
