Dicyclopentadiene (C10H12) (DCPD) is a tricyclic, colorless, waxy, and flammable organic compound formed through the dimerization of cyclopentadiene. It is commercially produced by the steam cracking of various petroleum products such as crude oil, naptha, and gas oil. DCPD is commonly available in high purity, hydrocarbon resin, and unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) grades. It is widely used in paints, varnishes, inks, adhesives, bug sprays, elastomers, and flame retardants for plastics. DCPD is also used as a chemical intermediate in resins, pesticides, and insecticides. It exhibits excellent electrical insulation properties, offers impact strength and stiffness at a very low density, and provides resistance to acids and bases. As a result, DCPD finds extensive applications across the automotive, construction, electronics, and marine industries.

The rising product utilization to manufacture unsaturated polymer resin (UPR) is one of the primary factors driving the market growth. DCPD-modified UPR is widely used to manufacture paints, coatings, adhesives, rubbers, varnishes, modified wax, and other non-woven products due to its simple processing, superior mechanical performance, chemical resistance, faster curing, and relatively low shrinking. In addition to this, the widespread product utilization to produce various resins, such as polyester, epoxy, phenolic specialty, and hydrocarbon resins, is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, DCPD is employed in the automotive industry to produce outer body components and various coverings, such as shields, bumpers, and hoods for cars and trucks, which is providing an impetus to the market growth. Apart from this, rising product adoption in the marine sector to build ship components owing to their chemical inertness, low thermal conductivity, and high electrical insulation is propelling the market growth. Additionally, the recent development of bio-based DCPD made from naturally obtained furfural, which, in turn, reduces the dependency on petroleum feedstock, minimizes adverse environmental impact, and saves costs, is positively influencing the market growth. Moreover, increasing product utilization to produce fragrances, flavors, antioxidants, ethyl norbornene, and cyclic olefin co-polymers is favoring the market growth. Other factors, including rapid infrastructural development activities, increasing demand for plastics, and the widespread product utilization in oil refining, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
