The market is segmented by form, by product, by end user and by source. The end user segment is further segmented into construction, agro-chemicals, textiles, oil & gas, paints & coatings, pulp & paper, pharmaceuticals and others, out of which, the construction segment is anticipated to observe significant growth on account of expansion and increased investments in the industry, followed by agro chemicals segment and textile segment. The product segment is further segmented by sulphonated naphthalene formaldehyde, phthalic anhydride, naphthalene sulphonic acid, naphthols, alkyl naphthalene sulphonate salts and others, out of which the sulphonated naphthalene formaldehyde (SNF) is estimated to witness significant growth on the back of its use in concrete cement as super plasticizer and high cost effectiveness as compared to other compounds. Additionally, the phthalic anhydride segment is anticipated to witness market growth owing to their use in manufacturing dyes and pigments thereby expanding the textiles industry followed by alkyl naphthalene sulphonate salts on the back of their use as dispersants in many industries.
The chemical properties of naphthalene makes it toxic for human use when given in excessive dosage. The extended exposure to naphthalene results in destruction of red blood cells causing hemolytic anemia, damage to lungs and neurological system owing to which the compounds have limited applications. The harmful effects of these compounds on environment are toxic to aquatic life, are flammable, combustible and cause severe health hazards. These factors are anticipated to hinder the market growth.

The market in Middle East and Africa region is anticipated to witness slow growth owing to limited number of end user industries.
The naphthalene derivatives market is further classified on the basis of region as follows:
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
