Carbon Disulfide Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis growing at a CAGR of 3.4% from 2025 to 2030

Carbon Disulfide (CS2) is a chemical compound primarily used in various industrial processes. It plays a crucial role in the production of a wide range of products, including agricultural chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and textiles. One of the key applications of carbon disulfide is in the agricultural sector, where it is used to manufacture dithiocarbamates, compounds that serve as biocides, fungicides, and fumigants. Among these compounds, metam sodium is the most commonly produced and widely used for soil sterilization and fumigation, particularly in the cultivation of crops such as tomatoes and potatoes. As the need for pest control and soil health management grows, the demand for carbon disulfide in agriculture continues to rise, driving market growth.

Another important sector utilizing carbon disulfide is pharmaceuticals, which synthesize various drugs and intermediates. In addition, it serves as a fumigant to control insects in stored food products, such as pulses, cereals, and grains. carbon disulfide vapors are highly toxic to insects but not harmful to humans or animals, making them an effective solution for pest management in the food industry.

Furthermore, carbon disulfide is also widely used as a solvent for substances such as selenium, iodine, rubber, and resin. Its effectiveness as a cleaning agent, particularly in cleaning carbon nanotubes, is increasingly recognized. With the growing demand for nanomaterials and their applications, carbon disulfide is expected to increase usage, contributing to market expansion. Moreover, the rising demand for viscose rayon, driven by evolving global needs, is set to provide significant opportunities for further market growth during the forecast period.
