Thymolphthalein is an indicator that can be used to determine whether a solution is basic or acidic. It has a transition range between 9.3 and 10.5 above this range, it turns blue, and below it, it is colorless. By using Friedel-Crafts alkylation, phthalic anhydride, and thymol can be mixed to produce thymolphthalein.

Ethyl alcohol (64-17-5) >99% and thymolphthalein (125-20-2) 0.04% are both ingredients used in the thymolphthalein indicator solution. The thymolphthalein indicator is a transparent, alcoholic liquid with a strong ethyl alcohol aroma that comes from the denatured ethyl alcohol it contains.

When denatured ethyl alcohol is added, the solution turns poisonous and becomes hazardous when consumed or inhaled. Because it contains ethyl alcohol, which has a flash point of 9 degrees Celsius, it is a flammable liquid. With peroxides, oxidizers, acids, acid anhydrides, ammonia, alkali metals, heat, moisture, and any other source of ignition, the solution reacts vigorously. Due to the increasing usage of this indicator in the pharmaceutical, coatings, and solvent industries the global thymolphthalein market is expected to have a modest CAGR in the forecast period.

Category-wise Insights

Which is the widely adopted application segment for Thymolphthalein?

The solvent is the most preferred application segment due to rising demand from a variety of sectors such as paints and coating, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. The solvent is a substance that is required to dissolve the substance or chemicals and converted to solutions, during this process to test the condition of the medium whether it is acidic or basic the indicators are used, owing to the growing demand for solvents the need for indicators is also increasing which is expected to bolster the market of thymolphthalein during the forecast period.

The chemical and agrochemicals industry uses solvents extensively in the form of products including ethanol, ketones, propanol, etc. The market is expected to grow at a faster rate in the near future owing to increasing demand for solvents.

Region-wise insights

How is North America faring in the global Thymolphthalein market?

North America is the leading Thymolphthalein consumer, holding the majority of shares approximately 40 to 45% in global revenue in 2022, owing to the growing demand for film and industrial solvents from end-use industries including coatings, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. As the paints and coating manufacturers required solvents to avoid clumps and globs and to provide the desired consistency of the product the demand for thymolphthalein increased in the North American region.

What are the prospects for the Thymolphthalein market in the Asia-Pacific region?

The market is expected to expand at the fastest rate in the Asia Pacific. India and China have the fastest-growing end-use industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and agriculture. The increasing chemical production and application of thymolphthalein as an acid-base indicator mainly during the titration process of various chemicals is expected to be the major driver in the region.
