N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone Market Dynamics
Rising demand for lithium-ion battery production to fuel consumption of NMP by 2020
The lithium-ion battery production is one of the major applications of NMP. These batteries are widely used in electric vehicles due to their better performance compared to other batteries. The rising production of electric vehicle will fuel the demand for lithium-ion batteries, thereby increasing the demand for NMP for battery production.
Many countries are aggressively promoting the electric vehicles to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. Some of them have introduced various policies to promote the purchase and use of electric vehicles. The sale of electric vehicles across the globe has been observed to increase sharply due to the rise in demand from China in 2017. These factors are boosting the demand for lithium-ion batteries and attracting investments in lithium-ion battery production facilities.
Following are the leading lithium-ion battery manufacturers across the globe.
