Dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) refers to an organic compound that belongs to the family of terephthalates, which are esters of terephthalic acid. It is a white crystalline solid with the molecular formula C10H10O4. Dimethyl terephthalate is mostly employed as a raw material to produce polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which is a thermoplastic polymer extensively employed in the manufacture of films, bottles, fibers, and other products. It is produced by the esterification of terephthalic acid with methanol. The reaction is catalyzed by acidic or basic catalysts and is carried out under controlled temperature and pressure conditions. The resulting dimethyl terephthalate is purified by crystallization or distillation, depending on the desired purity level. It has various benefits as a raw material for PET production. It has a high purity, which ensures the quality of the final product, and it can be stored and transported easily. Dimethyl terephthalate is also readily available and relatively inexpensive compared to other raw materials. It is also used in the production of other polymers and resins, such as polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), which is used in the manufacture of automotive parts and electrical components. DMT is also used as a precursor for the synthesis of other chemicals, such as dimethyl 2,6-naphthalene dicarboxylate, which is used in the production of liquid crystal polymers.

The increasing demand for PET products represents a key factor driving the market growth across the globe. The increasing use of thermoplastic polymers in the production of bottles, films, fibers, and other products is also facilitating the market growth. In line with this, the rapid expansion of the packaging industry, along with the increasing demand for packaged food and beverages, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals is contributing to the growth of the market. The market is also driven by the rising demand for PBT in the automotive and electronics industries, for which DMT serves as a raw material. Other factors, such as steadily expanding automotive, rapid urbanization, and proliferating quick-service restaurants (QSRs) that use a wide range of PET products, are further creating a positive outlook for the market.
