The
global Deep Eutectic Solvents Market size is estimated to
reach USD 374.2 million by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 14.5% from
2025 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The
deep eutectic solvents (DESs) industry is driven by the global shift toward
sustainable and green chemistry solutions. As regulatory pressure intensifies
against toxic and volatile organic solvents, DESs have emerged as non-toxic,
biodegradable alternatives that align with evolving environmental and safety
standards. Their low vapor pressure, high thermal stability, and tunable
physicochemical properties enable industries to reformulate processes while
complying with stricter emission norms.
DESs
offer superior solubilization and extraction capabilities, supporting greener
synthesis routes in polymer processing, surface treatments, and specialty
chemical formulations. Advancements in DES design now allow for tailored
performance in high-value applications such as coatings, adhesives, and
composites.
DESs
formulated from organic salts and metal hydrates are particularly valued for
their ability to solubilize metal ions, support redox reactions, and remain
stable under harsh conditions. Their low volatility and high ionic conductivity
make them ideal for applications in metal surface treatment, battery
electrolytes, and catalytic systems. Regulatory efforts to eliminate hazardous
substances are further accelerating adoption, especially in Europe and Asia.
Asia-Pacific
leads the global DES market, driven by the solvents’ effectiveness in
extracting bioactive compounds such as phenolic, flavonoids, and proteins from
plant-based sources. These natural solvents enhance yield and bioactivity while
supporting clean-label, residue-free production, fostering innovation in
nutraceuticals and fortified food products across dynamic markets like China,
India, and Southeast Asia.

Deep Eutectic Solvents Market Report Highlights
- The organic
salts + metal salts segment accounted for the largest market revenue share
in 2024. The growth is primarily driven by their cost-effectiveness
compared to ionic liquids, strong solvation capabilities for metal oxides
and salts, and expanding applications in metal extraction, electroplating,
and battery technologies due to their high thermal stability and ionic
conductivity.
- Asia Pacific
dominates the market and is projected to register a CAGR of 14.3% from
2025 to 2030. A key application driving regional demand is gold extraction,
where DESs are increasingly used as a safer alternative to traditional
cyanide-based methods due to their ability to selectively dissolve gold
with lower toxicity. According to the World Gold Council, China produced
378.2 tons of gold in 2024.
- In November
2023, GATTEFOSSÉ SAS launched Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents (NaDES) as
eco-friendly, biobased alternatives for advanced plant extraction in
cosmetic formulations. These NaDES-based solutions enhance phytochemical
content and improve biological efficacy, delivering notable anti-aging and
skin health benefits. Aligned with Green Chemistry principles, the
innovation replaces conventional solvents with safe, stable, and
regulation-compliant alternatives specifically tailored for cosmetic
applications.
Recent
Developments
·
In May 2025, a research article from ACS Publ lithium
ications reported the promising application of deep eutectic solvents (DESs)
for direct air capture (DAC) of CO₂. The study identified a DES composed of
tetrabutylphosphonium bromide and triethylene glycol in a 1:2 molar ratio
(DES2) as the most effective, exhibiting strong CO₂ affinity and selectivity under
atmospheric conditions due to its favorable molecular interactions and
polarity.
·
In April 2024, Arkema acquired a nearly 78% majority
stake in Proionic, a start-up specialized in ionic liquids crucial for
next-generation lithium-ion batteries, including solid and flexible types. This
acquisition enhances Arkema's portfolio of high-performance materials and
supports its strategy to offer innovative, sustainable solutions, such as ionic
liquids and applications in biomass processing and metal treatment. Proionic's
expertise in ionic liquids synthesis and recycling aligns with Arkema's goal to
develop safer, more efficient, and sustainable batteries, positioning the
company strongly in the evolving battery and ionic liquids markets, including
potential overlaps with Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs) due to their related
roles in green.
