Market Overview 

The France Paraxylene market comprises the manufacture, distribution, and consumption of paraxylene. Paraxylene is an important aromatic hydrocarbon chemical used in the production of plastics, textiles, resins, and a number of building blocks for other chemicals. P-xylene is an important chemical in the manufacture of PET bottles and polyester fibers. The paraxylene market includes the entire value chain from the manufacturing of paraxylene through to its use in various final products, but with a focus on its important role as an intermediate in the manufacture of polyester and a variety of chemicals. Paraxylene is important for making terephthalic acid (TPA), purified terephthalic acid (PTA), and dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), which are needed to manufacture polyethylene terephthalate (PET), particularly plastics. In general, the market is defined by the supply chain that represents the paraxylene production to its downstream applications, which are mostly utilized by the polyester and plastic industries.
