Market Overview:
The global polypropylene oxide market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for polypropylene oxide from various end-use industries, such as intermediate, solvent, skin care and cosmetics, and others. Polypropylene glycol (PPG) is a colorless liquid that is soluble in water and has a high boiling point. It is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PMEA), which is used as an organic solvent for paints, coatings, adhesives, and textile printing applications.
Product Definition:
Polypropylene oxide is a polymer created through the process of polymerization. It is used in a variety of applications, including as a surfactant, an adhesive, and as a coating. Polypropylene oxide is important because it can be used to create products with unique properties that can benefit society.
Polypropylene Glycol Average Mn -200-1500:
Polypropylene glycol (PPG) is a transparent, viscous liquid that is primarily used as an anti-microbial agent in the production of polypropylene. It has excellent moisture resistance and high stability against acids and bases. PPG also provides good impact strength, wear resistance, chemical & temperature resistance to polypropylene along with enhanced process efficiency during manufacturing of propylene oxide which further improves the overall performance of Polypropylene Oxide (PPO).
Polypropylene Glycol Average Mn -1500-3000:
Polypropylene glycol (PPG) is a transparent, viscous, water-soluble polymer used in the production of polypropylene oxide (PPO). It is commercially available as an odorless and colorless liquid. PPG has applications in various end-use industries including automotive & transportation, building & construction materials, electrical & electronics packaging films and coatings.
The global demand for PPG was estimated at 1.8 million tons in 2014.
Application Insights:
The global propylene oxide market is segmented based on application into intermediate, solvent, skin care and cosmetics, and others. Intermediate was the largest application segment in 2017 with a share of over 40% in terms of revenue. It is used as an additive for manufacturing rubber-based products such as tires and tubes. Increasing demand for lightweight vehicles coupled with stringent regulations regarding fuel efficiency are expected to drive the growth of this application over the forecast period.
Polypropylene Oxide (PPO) has excellent properties including low volatility, high chemical resistance, high temperature stability & flexibility along with being water & oil resistant makes it suitable for use in various automotive applications which include engine components (pistons), brake components (rotors), transmission parts & joints/fluid containers among others (Kumar et al., 2016). The growing automotive industry across regions coupled with increasing consumer disposable income levels is anticipated to augment demand from PPO intermediates applications over the forecast period.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the leading regional market in 2017 and is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period. The region accounted for a share of more than 60% of global polypropylene oxide market in 2017, mainly driven by rising product demand from end-use industries such as paints & coatings, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and others. China is projected to remain a key consumer and producer across this region owing to its large chemical industry base along with easy availability of raw materials at economical prices.
Europe emerged as the second-largest consumer for propylene oxide across this region due to high production volume coupled with stringent regulations regarding VOC emissions from various industries. North America also held a considerable share in terms of consumption owing to growing demand from end-use applications such as solvents, skin care products and others that are widely used across various sectors including automotive, construction etc.
Growth Factors:
- Growing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and packaging is expected to drive the growth of the polypropylene oxide market.
- Increasing use of polypropylene oxide in water treatment applications is also anticipated to fuel the market growth.
- Rising demand for lightweight and durable plastics in automotive and aerospace industries is projected to boost the polypropylene oxide market growth over the forecast period.
- Growing awareness about benefits of using PPO in various applications is likely to propel its demand over the next few years.
