The Bureau of Agricultural Economics of the Department of Agriculture has several statistical services which are useful to the chemical industry. Of special interest is the quarterly Naval Stores Report, which contains figures on production, distribution, consumption, and stocks of turpentine, both wood and gum types. Industrial consumption of both rosin and turpentine are shown by 15 specific industries, including quantities consumed by chemicals and pharmaceuticals, ester gums and synthetic resins, and paint, varnish, and lacquer. In addition, this quarterly report covers miscellaneous naval stores production, including products such as pine oil and resin oil.

Adipic acid is a very large volume organic chemical. Worldwide production in 1986 reached 1.6 x 10 t (3.5 x 10 lb) (158) and in 1989 was estimated at more than 1.9 x 10 t (Table 7). It is one of the top fifty (159) chemicals produced in the United States in terms of volume, with 1989 production estimated at 745,000 t (160). Growth rate in demand in the United States for the period 1988—1993 is estimated at 2.5% per year based on 1987—1989 (160). Table 7 provides individual capacities for U.S. manufacturers. Western European capacity is essentially equivalent to that in the United States at 800,000 t/yr. Demand is highly cycHc (161), reflecting the automotive and housing markets especially. Prices usually foUow the variabiUty in cmde oil prices. Adipic acid for nylon takes about 60% of U.S. cyclohexane production the remainder goes to caprolactam for nylon-6, export, and miscellaneous uses (162). In 1989 about 88% of U.S. adipic acid production was used in nylon-6,6 (77% fiber and 11% resin), 3% in polyurethanes, 2.5% in plasticizers, 2.7% miscellaneous, and 4.5% exported (160). 

Isophorone is a solvent for a large number of natural and synthetic polymers, resins, waxes, fats, and oils. Specifically, it is used as a solvent for concentrated vinyl chloride/acetate-based coating systems for metal cans, other metal paints, nitrocellulose finishes, printing inks for plastics, some herbicide and pesticide formulations, and adhesives for plastics, poly(vinyl) chloride and polystyrene materials (Papa and Sherman 1981). Isophorone also is an intermediate in the synthesis of 3, 5-xylenol, 3, 3, 5-trimethylcyclohexanol (Papa and Sherman 1981), and plant growth retardants (Haruta et al. 1974). Of the total production, 45-65% is used in vinyl coatings and inks, 15-25% in agricultural formulations, 15-30% in miscellaneous uses and exports, and 10% as a chemical intermediate (CMA 1981). 

Ethylenediamines are used in the following products lube oil and fuel additives (20%), chelating agents (16%), wet-strength resins (15%), epoxy curing agents and polyamides (13%), surfactants (10%), oil field chemicals (7%), and miscellaneous (19%).

The annual capacity of DCPD production for all grades in the United States is estimated to be in excess of 350 million pounds in 1999. The major US. producers are B. F. Goodrich Co., Equistar Chemicals (a joint venture of Lyondell Petrochemical, Milennium Chemicals, and Occidental Petroleiun Co.), Exxon Chemical Co., Phillips Petroleum Co., Shell Oil Co., Texmark Chemicals, and Velsicol Chemical Corp. The major consumptions of DCPD in the United States are in the production of hydrocarbon and imsaturated polyester resins (80%), ethylene-propylene terpolymers (10%), reaction injection molding (5%), and miscellaneous uses (5%). The last includes flame retardants, pesticides, antioxidants, and metallocene catalyst production. The demand for DCPD will grow in a rate of 4% per year in the next several years. 

The primary uses of 1,2-dichloroethane (ethylene dichloride), 1,1-di-chloroethane, chloroform, and carbon tetrachloride are as feed stocks for the production of chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons. Ethylene dichloride is used in the preparation of protein concentrates and in the extraction of natural oils. Chloroform is a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of plastic, dyes, resins, and fire extinguishing products. It is used as an extraction solvent for various pharmaceutical products as well as a reactant in the preparation of analgesics and anthelmintic drugs. Miscellaneous uses of carbon tetrachloride include synthesis of organic chemicals, dyes, drugs, and lubricants. 

Miscellaneous Plasticizers. Hydrocarbons and halogenated hydrocarbons belong mainly to the secondary plasticizer type. Aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons are used as extenders coumarone-indene resins and coal tar oils are miscible with rubber and slightly miscible with vinyl polymers. Alkylnaphtha-lenes are used as lubricants for vinylic polymers. Chlorinated hydrocarbons are used as secondary plasticizers in PVC, rubber or cellulose acetate-based blends to increase the resistance to inflammation.
