Propylene Oxide Market is projected to be worth USD 18.8 Billion by 2027, registering a CAGR of 3.9% during the forecast period (2020 - 2027).
As per a research report published by Market Research Future (MRFR). Propylene oxide acts as an essential primary chemical intermediate and has roles across various industry verticals. Growth in end user industries is the primary driver of the market. The substantial growth of the global automotive industry presents ample of expansion opportunities to the Propylene Oxide Market. Infrastructural and constructional projects such as urban city expansion projects across the globe, especially in the Asia Pacific region is a major driver of the market since propylene glycol is mostly used as a construction chemical for use in adhesives, paints, water-proofing materials and coatings. Growth in the automotive industry directly translates into a surge in demand for propylene oxide. It is used as flexible foams, sealants, hydraulic fluid in braking systems in vehicles, and also used as a de-icing agent in aircraft. Propylene oxide is a certified compound in the food industry which is used to reduce bacteria and microbes in food products, thus growth in food & beverage industry also augments the growth of the global Propylene Oxide Market. The surge in applications of polyurethane also boosts the growth of the market as polyurethane production requires propylene oxide as a raw material. Polyurethane is used in the production of insulators, mattresses, carpets and car seats which are expected to generate continued demand for propylene oxide. However, long-lasting and adverse health effects associated with exposure to propylene oxide and guidelines pertaining to exposure levels, and volatility in the price of raw materials are expected to hinder the market growth over the forecast period. Crude oil being one of the raw materials of propylene oxide is subject to price fluctuations which might restrict the growth of the market.
