The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global ethylene is expected to grow to $117.93 billion in 2027 at a CAGR of 2.8%. During the historic period, increased demand for polythene products contributed to the ethylene market’s growth. Ethylene is mainly used in polyethylene products such as low-density polyethylene (LDPE), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). The polyethylene market has grown substantially due to the increased demand for plastic across the globe. The high penetration of plastics in electronic products and lightweight products in vehicles has increased the demand for plastics. According to the American Chemistry Council, the production of plastic resins, which serve as the foundation for all plastic products, climbed 0.9 percent in the United States in 2020, compared to 1.2 percent in 2019. These factors that have driven the adoption of polyethylene have impacted the growth of the ethylene market. Major players in the ethylene market are AkzoNobel, BASF SE, Borealis, Chevron Phillips Chemical Company LLC., China Petrochemical Corporation, China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation, Clariant, Dow Chemical, Equistar Chemicals, and Exxon Mobil Corporation. Stringent government regulations related to the production and use of ethylene restrain the growth of the ethylene market. Ethylene is combustible and carcinogenic in nature, making it dangerous to the environment. It is highly explosive and can cause light-headedness, dizziness, and unconsciousness when exposed. Several countries are implementing legislation for environmental protection, which will put pressure on the companies involved in the production of ethylene. For instance, in January 2020, a group of 364 environmental and other non-governmental organizations filed a petition with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to revise standards applicable to petro-plastics production facilities. The petition requests the EPA to impose unprecedented controls on such facilities. Moreover, globally, governments are banning single-use plastics to curb plastic waste. For instance, in January 2020, China announced its plans to ban single-use plastics and promote recycling and green packaging. The restrictions laid on production would hamper the growth of the ethylene market. Ethylene-producing companies are investing in ways to develop bio-based green polyethylene compounds. These plastics are easy to produce, consume less energy, and offer the same versatility as chemically synthesized plastic. Following the trend, Braskem, a Brazil-based biopolymer producer, partnered with LEGO Group, a Danish toy production company, to supply it with I’m greenT polyethylene. I’m greenT polyethylene is a plastic made from sugarcane that is 100% recyclable and contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gases. In January 2020, Indorama Ventures, a Thailand-based intermediate petrochemical company completed the acquisition of ethylene business of Huntsman Corporation for $2 billion. This acquisition added products such as ethylene, ethylene oxide, and mono ethylene glycol, extending the product profile of Indorama Ventures, and will strengthen the PET feedstock supply chain and improve its position as a PET manufacturer. The deal gives Indorama Ventures access to a number of new derivative products, including propylene/PO derivatives, surfactants, ethanolamines, glycol ethers, and MTBE.

The Russia-Ukraine war disrupted the chances of global economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, at least in the short term. The war between these two countries has led to economic sanctions on multiple countries, a surge in commodity prices, and supply chain disruptions, causing inflation across goods and services and affecting many markets across the globe. The market size of global benzene is expected to grow to $73.03 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 0.4%. The increased use of styrene to drive the benzene market The benzene derivative ethylbenzene is majorly used in the manufacturing of styrene. Styrene is used in the production of various products, such as styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), polystyrene, styrene-butadiene elastomers, latexes, unsaturated polyester resins, among others. There is an increased demand for styrene-based polymers and copolymers in the automotive industry due to their lightweight nature. For instance, according to the American Chemistry Council (ACC), the fuel economy of a vehicle can improve by 6–8% by reducing the weight of a vehicle by 10%. Usage of plastics like styrene can reduce the weight of vehicles, thereby improving fuel economy. The use of styrene has also benefited manufacturers by reducing vehicle assembly time and costs. These advantages of the usage of styrene-based polymers and copolymers, especially in the automotive industry, are expected to contribute to the benzene market growth. Major players in the benzene market are Ameriya Oil Ref. Co., Angarsk Petrochemical, Alexandria National Refining, and Petrochemicals Company (ANRPC), Arsol Aromatics GmbH & Co. KG, Atyrau Oil & Gas, Azerkhimija, BASF SE, Borealis AG, Bp PLC., and Braskem. Stringent safety regulations associated with the manufacture and transportation of benzene were a significant market restraint. Benzene is highly inflammable, toxic, and hazardous when exposed to extreme temperatures and pressures. Companies in this market should invest in equipment, technologies, and processes to limit the toxic levels and chemical concentrations as they may harm the environment and population. Humans, when exposed to benzene in the air for a certain amount of time, lose their lives. In order to provide a safe environment, government agencies limit the amount of benzene that can be released into the environment. For instance, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has set the maximum permissible level of benzene in drinking water at 5 ppb (per billion parts of air). These regulations have increased the operating costs of companies in this industry, thus restricting their growth. Many companies in the benzene market are focusing on research and developmental activities to discover new technologies and processes for the production of benzene. The technologies developed are expected to help curb environmental issues. For instance, Reliance Industries Limited entered into a joint venture with the Indian Institute of Petroleum (IIP), Dehradun, to develop a technology that restricts benzene content in the gasoline pool to address health and environmental concerns. The increase in such technological advances to reduce emissions will gain traction and contribute to the growth of the market. In June 2020, Ineos, a UK-based chemicals company acquired the chemical unit (aromatics and acetyls business) of BP plc for $5 billion along with BP's Cooper River petrochemical plant in South Carolina among other facilities. This will enhance the production capacity of aromatics to cater to the market demand and enables operations synergies. BP plc is a UK-based oil and gas company.
