Demand for petrochemicals dry up elsewhere: Is India the new horizon?

Has the market for petrochemicals changed dramatically?A new world study seems to think soDemand is no longer growing at the rate at which it had in the past as demand from the baby boomers in the US seems to have tapered off as they grow older.The big market was China.
