Market Overview

In the food and beverage sector, biphenyl is frequently used as a flavouring ingredient and food preservative. Benzoic acid and sodium benzoate, which are utilised in the beverage business, produce biphenyl and its byproducts. Since sodium benzoate is frequently used in off-flavour soft drinks, rising millennial soft drink demand is one of the key factors supporting the growth of the biphenyl industry. Additionally, biphenyl is utilised as an adjuvant or flavouring ingredient. One of the key factors contributing to the growth of the biphenyl market is the use of an adjuvant, which may be added to a vaccine to enhance the immune response and create more antibodies and longer-lasting protection. Supply limitations in the short to medium term are caused by the distributors of biphenyl goods, who heavily rely on transportation regulations and experience problems with material handling & transit. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic's decreased demand for crude oil, biphenyl prices were comparatively stable during the epidemic. Acute exposure to high quantities of biphenyl can have toxic effects on the liver, kidneys, central nervous system, and peripheral nervous system, in addition to causing eye and skin irritation. People exposed to high quantities of biphenyl experience symptoms like headache, nausea, indigestion, gastrointestinal pain, limb numbness and pain, and overall weariness. Therefore, the sector's growth will be hampered by these harmful health impacts of biphenyl. Because distributors of biphenyl goods rely significantly on transportation regulations and experience difficulties with material handling and delivery, there are sometimes short- to medium-term supply shortages. Due of the COVID-19 pandemic's decreased demand for crude oil, biphenyl prices during the pandemic were rather stable. The liver, kidneys, central nervous system, and peripheral nervous system can all adversely affect acute exposure to high doses of biphenyl. When exposed to excessive quantities of biphenyl, people can experience symptoms like headache, nausea, indigestion, numbness and soreness in their limbs, and general weariness. Biphenyl's harmful health consequences will therefore restrain the growth of the sector.

Segmentation Analysis

• In 2021, the Coal Tar Biphenyl segment dominated the Market with the largest Market share of 40.1% and Market revenue of 0.65 Billion.

Based on the Source, the global Biphenyl Market is categorized into Coal Tar Biphenyl, Crude Oil Biphenyl and Natural Gas Biphenyl. In 2021, the Coal Tar Biphenyl segment dominated the Market with the largest Market share of 40.1% and Market revenue of 0.65 Billion. One of the key driving forces behind expanding the coal tar biphenyl market is the increasing demand for pharmaceuticals, dyes, and other substances. Coal tar, which has numerous uses in building, medicine, and other industries, contains biphenyl naturally. Coal tar is predominantly used to make fine chemicals and coal-tar products like creosote and coal-tar pitch. Since it treats various skin conditions like scaling and dryness, coal tar is also used in pharmaceuticals. The group of medications called keratoplastics includes coal tar. It reduces the formation of skin cells and makes the skin shed its outermost layer of dead cells. Additionally, a topical drug used to treat psoriasis and seborrheic dermatitis has increased demand for coal tar biphenyl in pharmaceutical applications, which should assist the expansion of the biphenyl market.

• In 2021, the Chemicals Intermediate segment accounted for the largest share of the Market, with 23.3% and a Market revenue of 0.38 Billion.

Based on the Application, the Biphenyl Market is categorized into Dyestuff Carriers for Textiles, Food & Beverages, Fungicides, Chemicals Intermediates, Solvents and Heat Transfer Fluids. In 2021, the Intermediate Chemicals segment accounted for the largest share of the Market, with 23.3% and a Market revenue of 0.38 Billion. The market for biphenyl is expanding due to its increasing use as an intermediate in the production of emulsifiers. Biphenyl is also thickening in printing carriers and is a precursor in benzidine production. As a result, many end-use manufacturing sectors are seeing a rise in demand for biphenyl as a chemical intermediate. Biphenyl is additionally employed as a crop production intermediate, aiding market expansion. Additionally, using chemical intermediates in non-agricultural pesticides and preservatives contributes to the biphenyl market and is anticipated to increase globally. As a result, the demand for biphenyl should be driven throughout the coming years by the expanding chemical sector, which should also promote the rise of chemical intermediates.

Regional Segment Analysis of the Biphenyl Market

The Asia Pacific emerged as the largest Market for the global Biphenyl Market, with a Market share of around 18.35% and 0.30Billion of the Market revenue in 2021.

• The Asia Pacific emerged as the largest Market for the global Biphenyl Market, with a Market share of around 18.35% and 0.30Billion of the Market revenue in 2021. The rising acceptance by the market are driving the demand for Biphenyls. This can be ascribed to the growing demand for biphenyl from a variety of end-use industries, including textile, agriculture, food & beverage, chemical manufacturing, and others, which has in turn prompted producers of the substance to boost output. In addition, there has been an increase in exports of agricultural products where biphenyl is frequently employed as a fungicide to inhibit the growth of certain diseases. The rapidly expanding textile industry in India has compelled biphenyl producers to create more effective biphenyl utilised as dye carriers. For instance, a report released in May 2022 by the Indian Brands Equity Foundation stated that India's exports of home textiles increased at a respectable pace of 9% in 2021. This might encourage the market for biphenyls to expand in the Asia-Pacific area.
• North America Market is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR between 2021 and 2030, owing to the increasing encouragement and benefits for foreign businesses to enter the region. The region is expanding because rising nations have accepted Biphenyl in Chemicals Intermediate and Fungicide market.
