Polypropylene Glycol Market Analysis
The global polypropylene glycol market size reached 1.9 Million Tonnes in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 2.7 Million Tonnes, at a projected CAGR of 4.10% during 2023-2032.
- The rising demand for PPG in the automotive industry is acting as a major growth-inducing factor in the market. The expansion of the automotive industry, along with the increasing use of PPG in the formulation of coolants and antifreeze solutions is contributing to the growth of the market. For instance, final data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) showed that 1.9 million vehicles were sold in 2023, an increase of 17.9% from a year ago and the highest level since the 2.3 million registrations in 2019.
- The increasing demand for PPG in producing polyurethane foams, which are widely employed for insulation in buildings is influencing the market growth. PPG offers elasticity and moisture resistance, which makes it ideal for sealants and adhesives used in construction, thereby driving the demand for PPG. For instance, in February 2024, WACKER presented two dispersible polymer powders for formulating tile adhesives at this year’s PAINTINDIA that will soon be introduced into the growing Indian market. When added to dry-mix mortars, VINNAPAS 4419E and VINNAPAS 8819E produce an exceptional creamy consistency which makes the resulting product easier to use.
- PPG is included in lotions, creams, conditioners, and shampoos to enhance their texture and hydration effectiveness as a moisturizer which is boosting its demand in the cosmetic and personal care industry. PPG acts as a solvent for dissolving substances in beauty products, improving application and stability. According to the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the overall cosmetic and personal care market share is expected to grow to US $ 20 billion by 2025 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25%. On the other hand, the global cosmetics industry is growing at 4.3% CAGR and will reach US $450 billion by 2025. By 2025, along with this growth, India will constitute 5% of the total cosmetics market and reach the top five global markets in terms of revenue.

Product Description
Polypropylene glycol or PPG refers to a polymer of propylene glycol, classified as a polyether compound.
PPG is mainly employed in the production of several consumer and industrial products.
Chemically, it is synthesized through the polymerization of propylene oxide, resulting in a substance that can vary in molecular weight depending on the specific application requirement.
It is characterized by its solubility in water and its ability to function as a surfactant, thereby making it effective in lowering the surface tension between 2 liquids or a liquid and a solid.
The applications of PPG are diverse, ranging from the manufacturer of foams, particularly in the automotive and construction industry, to its employment as a component in hydraulic and brake fluids.
PPG serves as a piece in the formulation of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and food additives, where it acts as a moisturizer, stabilizer, and solvent.
It was stability and non-toxic nature make it a valuable ingredient across numerous sectors.

Europe Polypropylene Glycol Price
Polypropylene glycol prices in the European market experienced a plunge in the second quarter of 2022. During April, the upstream propylene witnessed an upward trajectory. At the end of April, the price fell for the rest of the quarter owing to the poor demand from downstream derivatives like polypropylene glycol, polyurethane, etc. A sufficient supply of raw materials further reduced polypropylene glycol’s price.
This analysis can be extended to include detailed polypropylene glycol price information for a comprehensive list of countries.

North America Polypropylene Glycol Price
During the second quarter of 2022, the upstream raw material propylene oxide price decreased in the North American region. The polypropylene glycol price declined owing to the region's reduced raw materials. The upstream propylene polymer grade price decreased throughout the quarter owing to poor demand from the downstream industries and fewer buying trends in the region. The naphtha price was reduced, and a sufficient supply of raw material to meet the ongoing demand from the downstream derivative industries further reduced the price of polypropylene glycol in the region.
