Global Propylene Oxide Market By Overview

Propylene oxide is an organic, flammable, volatile, colourless liquid compound similar to ether or benzene extensively used as an intermediate for production of numerous commercial materials such as, polyether polyols, propylene glycol and propylene glycol ethers. 

Moreover, the propylene oxide is also used in manufacturing of injection molding, rigid foams, adhesives, surfactants, coating and others. Furthermore, the increased usage of polyurethanes in various end user applications such as bedding, thermal insulation in the construction industry, carpet underlay automotive insulation, packaging moldings in door frames, commercial refrigeration, window headers, columns, window headers, and others. 

However, health hazard caused due to prolonged exposure towards skin is a major factor that is expected to hamper the propylene oxide market. 

The global propylene oxide market is segmented on the basis of propylene oxide, process, end user and region. 

On the basis of propylene oxide, the global propylene oxide market is segmented into polyether polyols, propylene glycol, glycol ethers, and others.

Further, on the basis of process, the global propylene oxide market is segmented into chlorohydrins process, stryrene monomer process, hydrogen peroxide process, TBA Co-Product process, and cumene-based process.
