Aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents and thinners are chemical substances derived from petroleum or natural gas, characterized by their aliphatic structure. They are used as solvents or diluents in various industries such as paints, coatings, adhesives, and cleaning products. These solvents offer fast drying, low odor, and excellent compatibility with a wide range of materials, making them valuable in formulations where fast evaporation and minimal residue are desired.

The aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents & thinners market is projected to grow from 3.4 billion in 2020 to USD 4.3 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 4.5% from 2020 to 2025. Increased demand for paints & coatings, which require aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents & thinners, from various end-use industries, such as decorative paints, automotive, industrial, and protective paints & coatings is one of the key factors driving the growth of the aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents & thinners market across the globe.
