Hexylene glycol is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. It is produced industrially from acetone which has two alcohol functions, by hydrogenation process. It is completely miscible in water and has low evaporation rate. It can be found in a wide variety of products that are used industrially and commercially. Its low volatility and high viscosity are beneficial in cleansers, coatings, cosmetics, hydraulic fluids and solvents.
The hexylene glycol market is being driven by several growth factors. An increased demand for viscosity-reducing agent, surfactant, and emulsifier in personal care and cosmetics products and high adoption of hexylene glycol by chemical, paints and coating, leather, and other end-use industries are major factors that attributed to the market growth. In addition, factors such as rapid growth in the global chemical, paints and coating and personal care industry and rising consumer awareness regarding health and hygiene are further likely to contribute to the market growth.
