Dicyclopentadiene is a colorless, flammable and waxy chemical compound with a camphor-like odor. It is the dimer of cyclopentadiene that is produced through the Diels-Alder Reaction. It is commonly produced in large quantities through the steam cracking of petroleum products, such as naphtha, crude oil and gas oils. Dicyclopentadiene is widely used in the production of cyclic olefin, unsaturated polyester resins (UPR), poly dicyclopentadiene (DCPC), inks, paints, hydrocarbon resins, ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) elastomers and adhesives. It is also utilized in the manufacturing of pipes, industrial containers, sanitary ware, construction equipment, pesticides and flame retardants. As a result, it finds extensive application across various industries, such as automotive, marine, construction and electronics.

Dicyclopentadiene Market Trends:
Significant growth in the automotive industry is one of the key factors creating a positive outlook for the market. Dicyclopentadiene is widely used to manufacture various flame-resistant automotive components, such as bumpers, spoilers, body panels and fenders. Additionally, the widespread adoption of UPRs for the manufacturing of chemical and erosion-resistant electrical components is favoring the market growth. Various product innovations, such as the development of environment-friendly bio-based EPDM, are providing a thrust to the market growth. It is manufactured using plant-based and durable materials that aid in minimizing the carbon emissions. In line with this, the increasing product demand in the construction industry is positively impacting the market growth. Dicyclopentadiene is widely used in bathroom electricals, fabrication of bathtubs and swimming pools. Other factors, including the increasing demand for plastic products across various industries, along with the widespread adoption of dicyclopentadiene as an industrial catalyst and solvent, are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
