N Butanol Market Overview
1-Butanol, also known as butan-1 or n-butanol, is a primary alcohol with the chemical formula C4H9OH and a linear structure, the isomers of 1-butanol are isobutanol, butan-2-ol and tert-butanol. The term unsubstituted butanol usually refers to the straight chain isomer with an alcohol functional group on the terminal carbon, also known as n-butanol or 1-butanol, while the straight chain isomer with an alcohol at the internal carbon is se-butanol or 2-butanol. N-Butanol is produced by various Clostridium species through the acetone butanol ethanol fermentation process with a ratio of 1:3:6 and titers up to 13g/l. n-Butanol is used in solvents for paints, coatings, varnishes, fats, oils, waxes, rubber and plasticizers, normal butanol is a 4-carbon, straight-chain alcohol, used as a solvent and as a raw material Coating resins, butyl acrylate, butyl acetates, glycol ethers etc. and it is also used in plastics, polymers, lubricants, brake fluids and synthetic rubber. It can be used as a fuel source, environmentally friendly and powerful solvent for cleaning and polishing products. Butanol is produced by solvent-producing bacteria during fermentation, commonly referred to as acetone, butanol, and ethanol fermentation. Over the years, n-butanol has increased its use as an artificial food flavoring in the food and beverage industry, increasing use of n-butanol in several end-use applications is driving the global n-butanol market over the forecast period.
N Butanol Market Dynamics
Increasing use of N-butanol in multiple applications and properties such as good reactivity and high solubility are driving growth in the building and construction sector and increasing demand for coatings in various end-use industries and growth in infrastructure are key factors. Global N-butanol market during the forecast period. Rapid industrialization, along with increasing disposable income has increased the demand for paints, coatings, varnishes, resins, etc. and has driven the market to growth. However, fluctuating prices of raw materials including propylene and syngas along with environmental regulations related to N-butanol are expected to restrain industry growth next year and sustaining raw material prices are the major challenges hampering the market growth.
Technological advancement
Manufacturers involved in the N-Butanol market are developing advanced versions of their products due to new age technological advancements. Key N-Butanol players are investing more in power systems and creating more cost-effective technologies that are positively impacting the bio-polyamides market. Technological developments and research advancement through CRISPR and bio-engineering large-scale processing of bio-butanol using fermentation are likely to be possible in the near future. In a July 2022 study published in the Journal of Chromatography A, using fast gas chromatography proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry technology, Prof. Sheng Chengyin and associate Prof. Zhu Xue of the Chinese Hefei Institute of Physical Science whose isomer, tert-butanol, is toxic and potentially harmful to the human body. In February 2020, DOW Chemical Company selected LP SELECTOR 10 technology for butanol production at its manufacturing plant, fueling market growth and expansion.
