Phosgene Global Market Report Released By The Business Research CompanyPhosgene Global Market Report Released By The Business Research Company

This phosgene global market report covers the global production and market volume for phosgene. Phosgene is a toxic gas used in the production of various derivatives that are further used in the production of chemicals for a range of industries.

Phosgene, also known as carbonyl dichloride, is a very toxic chemical used in many industries for chemical synthetic processes. It is used in the production of products such as pesticides, dyes, isocyanates, chloroformates and polyurethanes. At room temperature, it is a very poisonous gas. It is heavier than air, hence stays near the ground and spreads rapidly.

Phosgene is synthesized from carbon monoxide and chlorine. These two are themselves toxic and hazardous chemicals.

The reaction of anhydrous chlorine with pure carbon monoxide in the presence of an activated carbon catalyst at high temperature produces phosgene. Apart from phosgene, this reaction gives some unwanted by-products and considerable heat is generated. The production of phosgene is a continuous process with careful metering of raw materials and excess heat removal. The principle by-product of phosgene production is another chlorinated hydrocarbon such as carbon tetrachloride.

Phosgene, Market Size

Global phosgene production is captive. It is produced at the same plant where it is further used for the preparation of derivatives. Hence, there are no clearly available figures about global phosgene production.

North America and Western Europe were the largest producers of phosgene until the early 2000s. However, strict regulations and increased awareness about the toxicity of such chemicals resulted in phosgene production shifting towards Asian countries, especially China. Currently, China is the leading country in the production of phosgene and its derivatives.

Global phosgene market volume grew slowly during 2010-2015. It is expected to grow at a similar rate going forward. The developed regions such as North America and Western Europe will see a decline in their growth rate. However, it is expected to be adjusted by an increase in Asian countries.
The sections below give the global market size volume for phosgene including historic estimates and forecasts.
Phosgene, Value Chain
Phosgene is used in the manufacture of various derivatives such as isocyanates and chloroformates. These derivatives are further used in the production of many pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds.

Due to its toxicity and risks in storage and transport, phosgene is produced on-site in the same plant where it is used in the synthesis of derivatives. Some of the common derivatives of phosgene are isocyanates, chloroformates, carbamoyl chlorides and carboxy anhydrides. Various production capabilities include laboratory/kilo-lab, pilot plant or full-scale production. Laboratory/kilo-lab production is used to manufacture a very small amount of the chemical for research purposes.
