The international dispersing agent market witnesses a high growth on account of the rapidly growing construction, paints & coatings and oil & gas industry. This has resulted from increasing demand for energy, infrastructure facilities, and automobiles, especially in regions such as Asia-Pacific. The dispersing agent market is fragmented with a wide range of players that range from small and medium sized chemical companies to large players. Construction, paints & coatings, pulp & paper, detergents, oil & gas, agriculture, and pharmaceutical are the major end-user industries for dispersing agents that show a high growth potential. Other end-user industries such as textile industry, printing inks, cosmetics, etc., have not commercialized the use of dispersing agents and are thus set to record a lower growth rate.

Dispersing agents are the additives used for an easier and stable suspension of particles in liquids. They help improve the workability of fluids by reducing the viscosity of dispersion. Due to these properties, there is a growing demand for dispersing agents from both existing and emerging end-user industries, thus driving the market. Also, the shift from solvent based systems towards water based systems has helped reduce the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions in the environment, thus creating an increased demand for dispersing agents.
