Key questions answered in the study
Coal Tar Pitch to Attain the Fastest Market Growth
Based on Application, the market segments into Carbon Black, Pitch like Aluminum Grade, Binder & Impregnating Grade, Special Grade, Wash Oil, and others like Anthracene Oil Fraction & Tar Oil. Here the Pitch segment is likely to attain the fastest market growth due to the massive production of aluminum, which is used as a binder while producing carbon anodes. Its growing popularity is increasing the demand for Coal Tar Pitch in aerospace, automotive, and space industries. Furthermore, Coal-tar pitch is a byproduct of solid fuel and coke that comprises coal gas & carbon. Both coal-tar pitch and coal tar have several different chemical compounds, inclusive of carcinogens like benzene. However, coal tar is hazardous to the environment, thereby turning manufacturers toward the Coal Tar Pitch and driving the overall segment growth.
