The global dodecanol market is estimated to reach a valuation of US$ 800 million in 2032, with sales growing at a positive CAGR of 6% from 2022 to 2032. Valued at US$ 330 million in 2021, the market came up to US$ 335 million in 2022. The expanding personal care industry and escalating use of dodecanol in products like fabric softeners, fatty alcohol-based detergents, and skin care products are responsible for the steady growth of the dodecanol market during this period of observation.
Though dodecanol is mainly used as a chemical intermediate in the production of dodecyl sulphate and dodecyl ethoxylate, it is also a vital raw material in the production of surfactants. Dodecanol also gains extensive application in the pharmaceutical industries, in the production of lubricating oils, flavoring agents, and as an emollient. The chemical is also used in pear and apple orchards as a Lepidopteran pheromone attractant as well as to disrupt the mating behavior of certain moths, the larvae of which destroy crops. Thus, the use of dodecanol in formulations of plant metabolites, insecticides, and pesticides in the agricultural sector also aids the growth of the dodecanol market in the upcoming years.
