Global Propylene Oxide Market – Industry Trends and Forecast to 2029

Market Analysis and Insights of Propylene Oxide Market

Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the propylene oxide market will witness a CAGR of 5.95% for the forecast period of 2022-2029. Growth in the demand for propylene oxide especially in the developing economies like India and China, growing use of propylene oxide for a wide range of end user applications such as automotive, textile and furnishing, chemical and pharmaceutical, packaging, and other applications, increasing investment by the government for research and development activities and surge in industrialization especially in the developing countries are the major factors attributable to the growth of the propylene oxide market.

Propylene oxide is a compound similar to ether or benzene, which is soluble in alcohol/ ether. Propylene oxide is a colourless, volatile, inflammable and organic compound that is used for a wide range of industrial applications.

Rise in demand for propylene oxide by the buildings and construction industry in developed and developing economies is the root cause fuelling up the market growth rate. Rising application areas for propylene oxide such as in the electrical and electronics industry and growth and expansion of various end user industries especially in the developing economies will also directly and positively impact the growth rate of the market. Rising production rate of sealants, adhesives, flexible foams, paints, and coatings, rising expenditure for research and development proficiencies, surging investments by major players in emerging environmentally friendly techniques to manufacture propylene oxide, growing focus on the technological advancements and modernization in the production techniques will further carve the way for the growth of the market.

However, insufficiency in raw material demand and supply owing to the lockdown and volatility in their prices will pose a major challenge to the growth of the market. High costs associated with research and development proficiencies, health hazards caused due to prolonged exposure contact leading to skin diseases, emergence of low priced substitutes such as alkylene carbonate and strict global trade restrictions will dampen the market growth rate.
