The price of cyclopentane in China for Q2 2023 reached 1415 USD/MT in June 2023. A rise in prices of cyclopentane was witnessed in the market during the quarter. The rise was initially influenced by some supply problems in the region. However, later the price plunged in the wake of weak demand from downstream refrigerant and other allied industries. As indicated by the National Bureau of Statistics China, the purchasing manager index declined in May 2023 after a marginal decline from the previous month along with the decrease in the industrial growth rate from April to May 2023.

Cyclopentane Market Analysis
The global cyclopentane market size reached US$ 294.6 Million in 2023. By 2032, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 530.3 Million, at a projected CAGR of 6.80% during 2023-2032.
The global movement supporting the utilization of eco-friendly materials is prompting manufacturers to adopt cyclopentane over other more polluting substitutes in different production processes, which is driving the market growth. For instance, the trend of minimizing and reusing products has been on the rise since 2023. 42% of the customers who buy secondhand products are from 18 to 37 years old. The expanding polyurethane (PU) market is propelling the cyclopentane market. Cyclopentane is applied as a blowing agent in PU, which is also stimulated by the increasing demand for foam products in the packaging and bedding industry. Advancements in technology are making cyclopentane production more efficient and safer, which, in turn, is cutting costs and encouraging its further usage. The investments made by major economies to reduce their environmental footprint in the chemical sector benefit cyclic pentane production, thereby boosting the market growth. For instance, by 2023, 66 % of the largest chemical end-users in Europe like players from automotive, food, and personal care industries have committed to reducing GHG emissions by 2030 and 37 % have pledged net zero targets by 2050. Global initiatives aimed at combating climate change are playing a significant role in the promotion of eco-friendly materials with lower environmental impacts, such as cyclopentane. Cyclopentane is being favored, especially in refrigeration and appliance production, due to its low global warming potential and zero ozone depletion potential. Moreover, the rising infrastructure development activities in emerging economies are creating a higher need for functional insulating materials, which is catalyzing the demand for cyclopentane. Besides this, the use of cyclopentane in the automotive industry where it is used in the production of lightweight and energy-efficient parts, is contributing to the cyclopentane market outlook. Furthermore, continuous research and developmental (R&D) activities for expanding the applications of cyclopentane are acting as another crucial growth-inducing factor.

Product Description
Cyclopentane, a colorless liquid hydrocarbon, is an extremely flammable substance, which is present in cyclic alkane form having the molecular formula C5H10. It has a low boiling point and a camphor-like odor, which makes it unique among its hydrocarbon peers. Being a volatile organic compound, cyclopentane possesses a special ring structure, which accounts for the compound’s stability and chemical reactivity. It is used in the manufacture of synthetic rubber, as a solvent for chemical synthesis, and is extensively used as an eco-friendly blowing agent for PU foam over CFCs and HCFCs in the refrigeration industry. Its utilization results in a lower environmental influence of insulation materials by reducing energy usage and the resulting greenhouse gas emissions.
