The Global 4,4'-Dichlorodiphenyl Sulfone (DCDPS) Market Is Driven by The Growing Use of 4,4'-Dichlorodiphenyl Sulfone (DCDPS) in Industries Such as Chemical and Automotive.
4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones (DCDPS), also recognized as a sulfone, is mainly used in production of rigid polymers and temperature-resistant polymers. In many industries such as medical, aerospace, automotive, etc., sulfone is used as replacements for glass and metals. 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfone is obtained from sulfonation of chlorobenzene, a colorless and flammable liquid, with sulfuric acid. The reaction is carried out in presence of different additives or catalysts.
DCDPS is also be produced by using the process of chlorination of diphenyl sulfone. DCDPS has a molar mass of 287.15 gram/mol and has a white solid appearance. DCDPS is an organic compound that is insoluble in water. 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones is used as a precursor to polyether sulfones and polysulfones. Polyether sulfones and polysulfones are types of thermoplastics and are primarily used in high temperature applications. Some of the characteristics of 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones are high transparency, light weight, and high temperature performance. 4,4'-Dichlorodiphenyl sulfones is also used in textile industry as reactive dye and in pesticide industry.

Top Market Players
Some of the leading and major companies in the global 4,4'-dichloro diphenyl sulfones (DCDPS) market are BASF, Sumitomo, Solvay, Vapi Products Industries, Vertellus, Hebei Jianxin Chemical, BanChem Group, Jiangxi Jinhai, Hebei Xulong Chemical, among others. These companies constitute a significant market share of the global 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones (DCDPS) market, mainly due to the presence of a low number of 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones manufacturers around the world.
4,4'-Dichlorodiphenyl sulfones industry has seen are a steady growth in recent years as the demand for polyether sulfones and polysulfones is also increasing at a steady rate in the pharmaceutical and automotive industries. The demand for polysulfones and polyether sulfones has increased due to the steady growth of the automotive market. The automotive industry globally was valued at USD 5,315 billion in 2017, owing to rapid industrialization and improving economic conditions, the market is estimated to reach a market value of USD 8,931 billion by the end of 2030.
Growth in the automotive industry has driven the consumption of polyether sulfones and polysulfones for various automotive components. Polysulfones are used in the automotive industry as a replacement for thermoset materials and metals. Some of the automotive applications of polysulfone are oil control pistons, oil pumps, carburetor parts, transmission parts, bearing cages, etc.
Polyether sulfones and polysulfones are used in automotive components due to their high fire resistance and greater stability at high temperatures. The rising consumption of polysulfones has driven the consumption of 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones for the manufacturing of polysulfones. Growing demand for polyether sulfones and polysulfones has played an important part in driving the global 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones market.
Further, 4,4'-dichlorodiphenyl sulfones are also used as an intermediate for diamino diphenyl sulfone, a commonly used antibiotic. Dapsone, or diamino diphenyl sulfone, is used for leprosy treatment in combination with clofazimine and rifampicin. The demand for leprosy treatment drugs has increased due to increasing leprosy cases globally. In 2018, nearly 120,334 new cases of leprosy were found in India, the highest number around the world in any country.
