by reducing pollutants. With rising concerns to attain environmental sustainability, several players in the dimethyl ether market have launched DME fuel compatible vehicles to promote sustainable road transport development. For instance, Volvo Truck Corporation has launched Volvo Bio-DME trucks which are compatible to run on renewable fuels and provides comparable performance along with lower CO2 emissions. Dimethyl ether also finds widespread applications as an aerosol propellant across several end-user industries including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, paints & coatings, etc. It is extensively Used across various industries owing to low cost, low odor, high stability & purity, low toxicity, wide vapor pressure range, and environment-friendliness and flammability. In the cosmetic industry, it is used in hair spray, fragrances and various other products. The benefits of dimethyl ether as an aerosol propellant such as purity & stability, low relative cost, low odor, wide vapor pressures range, low toxicity, flammability and environmentally friendly nature of the product has been playing a vital role in capturing an extended customer base primarily in North America.
