Global Propylene Market By Derivatives Overview

Propylene Market accounted for USD 3.67 Billion in 2020 and is estimated to be USD 5.66 Billion by 2030 and is anticipated to register a CAGR of 4.50%.

Propylene is considered an essential building block in petrochemicals. Propylene has a wide array of applications ranging from automotive, textile, and packaging to construction, etc. Major derivatives of propylene include polypropylene and propylene oxide. Propylene with its derivatives is majorly used in packaging and automotive industries across the globe. Propylene is an alkene, which means it has three double-bonded carbon atoms. After ethylene, it is the second most often used petrochemical. Propylene, also known as propene, is a byproduct of oil and natural gas refining.

As a result of splitting bigger hydrocarbons during oil refining, ethylene, propene, and other chemicals are generated. Naphtha cracking, which is meant to produce ethylene and results from refinery cracking producing other products, is a key source of propylene. Propane dehydrogenation produces propylene and hydrogen as a byproduct. The most extensively utilised propylene manufacturing technologies are fluid catalytic cracking splitters and On-Purpose Technology (OPT). Films, fibres, containers, packaging, and caps and closures are only a few of the applications.

Global Propylene Market By Derivatives Drivers & Restraints

Rising demand for polypropylene

Rising demand for polypropylene and its various derivatives from various end-use industries, especially from the automotive industries across the globe is a major factor driving growth of the global market currently. However, problem associated with use of propylene at high temperatures is a major factors hampering growth of the global market. One of the primary factors driving the growth of the propylene market is the increase in demand for propylene from the building industry around the world. The increased use of propylene in various sectors such as packaging, textiles, construction, automotive, and others, as well as the increased demand for polymers made from propylene monomer in the automotive sector, are driving market expansion. The market is also influenced by rising demand for polypropylene goods, which are used in the manufacture of interior trim, instrument panels, door trims, battery boxes and trays, fender liners, bumpers, and other components, as well as the continued expansion of the e-commerce industry. In addition, the propylene market benefits from the expansion of end-user industries, urbanisation and industrialization, and an increase in investment for infrastructure development.
