Global Industry Analysis and Forecast 2016 - 2022”.
The organic compound propylene oxide is a colorless and volatile liquid at normal temperature
and pressure. This compound is highly flammable and reactive in nature. The compound,
however, is very useful as a chemical intermediate. The propylene oxide is used for fumigation
of medical instruments and in food industries. It is a major commodity chemical used for a
production of polyurethane. Commercially, propylene oxide is used in production of polyols,
glycol ethers and Butanediol among the others. It is also used in starch industries, lubricant
industries, adhesive and sealant industries, cosmetic industries etc. Moreover, it also finds
application in production of herbicides, demulsifiers, surfactants and defoamers.
The petrochemical product propylene oxide is mainly used to derive propylene glycol. This
propylene glycol is primarily used as a raw-material for the production of polyurethane as well
as used as intermediate in various other industries. The increasing demand for polyurethane
from the end use industries is expected to drive the global market of polyurethane and in turn
result in an increasing demand for propylene oxide. Hence, the growth in polyurethane market is
expected to drive the growth of global propylene oxide market. Glycol ethers are used
extensively in cleaning agents, in cosmetics, paints, gums etc., the growth in demand for glycol
ethers is in turn expected to drive the growth of propylene oxide market during the forecast
period. On the flip side, hazardous nature of propylene glycol that is it...
