시장 정의

Cumene in chemical form is also known as isopropyl benzene, an organic compound based on aromatic hydrocarbons with aliphatic substitution. It is a flammable and colorless liquid with high boiling point of around 152°C and is a constituent of crude oil and refined fuels. Industrially, cumene is produced by Friedel Crafts alkylation method. It is converted into an intermediate known as cumene hydroperoxide for further applications.

 Cumene Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers                                    

• Increased Utilization of Cumenes

The growing utilization of the cumenes for various applications is estimated to boost the market growth over forecast period. Major factors that are expected to boost the growth of the cumene market in the forecast period are the rise in the demand for phenolic resins and bisphenol-A, and the increase in the consumption of acetone and its derivatives. Furthermore, the rise in the usage of cumene in adhesives and sealant chemicals and the upsurge in the preference for the consumers towards high octane production are further propelling the growth of the cumene market.

The factors such as increased industrialization and rising consumer demand for high-octane cumene derivatives, are expected to further propel the growth rate of cumene market. Additionally, the expansion of the end use industries which are projected to bolster the growth of the market.

Opportunities

• Product Innovations and Developments

Furthermore, the product innovations, such as the development of food-grade cumene for polycarbonate plastic-based containers and bottles extend profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029. Additionally, the rise in the development for chemical manufacturing will further expand the future growth of the cumene market.

Restraints/Challenges

• High Material Cost

On the other hand, increase in the material cost is further estimated to impede the growth of the cumene market in the forecast period.

• Negative Impact on Health

Also, humans may experience headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, minor incoordination, and unconsciousness as a result of acute (short-term) inhalation exposure to cumene. Cumene has a depressive effect on the central nervous system (CNS). These dangerous side effects on the human health will prove to be a demerit for the cumene market. Therefore, this factor will challenge the cumene market growth rate.

COVID-19 Impact on Cumene Market

The recent outbreak of coronavirus had a negative impact on the cumene market. Due to the unexpected beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, global demand for cumene has decreased, resulting in reduced demand for cumene phenol and acetone derivatives. The effects of COVID-19 on the industry, the region, and subsequent supply chain activities reduced phenol demand. As a result, cumene demand fell in 2020. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic began to damage cumene's primary end-user sectors, including as cosmetics and personal care, paints and enamels, high-octane aviation fuels, and polymer industries, where decreased sales as a result of the pandemic undermined cumene demand for a long time.

On the brighter side, post COVID, the cumene market is predicted to rebound and develop at a CAGR of 4.3 percent, since COVID-19 vaccination has begun in many economies throughout the world, which is expected to strengthen the global economy.

Recent Development

• In May 2021, PPG announced the completion of a USD 13 million investment in its paint and coatings plant in Jiading, China, which includes eight new powder coating production lines and an enlarged powder coatings technology centre, which will improve PPG's research and development capabilities. The extension will almost certainly boost the plant's capacity by over 8,000 tonnes per year.
