Product Definition:
(R)-Glycidol is an organic compound that has the formula C3H6O2. It is a chiral molecule and exists as two stereoisomers, (R)-glycidol and (S)-glycidol. The enantiomer of glycidol, (S)-glycidol, is a major industrial intermediate used in the production of epichlorohydrin.
Glycidol 96%:
Glycidol is a chemical compound and an industrial solvent. It has several applications in the pharmaceutical industry, as well as in other industries including cosmetics, agrochemicals, and research laboratories. The product is manufactured by the catalytic oxidation of ethylene glycol with manganese dioxide or by hydrogenation of propylene oxide with manganese dioxide.
Glycidol 97%:
Glycidol 97% is a form of Glycine, an amino acid. It is manufactured by the hydrolysis of proteins and used as a building block for protein synthesis in the body. The product has several medical applications such as treatment for gout, rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
Application Insights:
Epoxy resin thinner was the major application segment and accounted for over 60% of global (R)-glycidol demand in 2016. The product is widely used as a chemical intermediate in epoxy resins, polyester resins, and polyurethane resins production. It is also employed as a chemical additive to improve the performance of epoxies and other polymer-based coatings.
Epoxy resin thinners are primarily used to prepare low viscosity solutions that are required when multiple layers of coatings are applied on different substrates such as glass fiber reinforced plastics, metals & alloys, wood composites etc. Glycitols help prevent adhesion problems between dissimilar substrates such as plastic components & metal surfaces which increases efficiency while using an adhesive or coating solution on these types of assemblies/components.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest market for global (R)-glycidol in 2016 and will expand further at the fastest CAGR from 2017 to 2030. This is attributed to increasing demand for epoxy resins from various end-use industries, such as construction, automotive, marine and aerospace. The region has been witnessing strong economic growth over the past few years on account of rising disposable income coupled with population expansion.
The growing manufacturing sector in emerging economies of Asia Pacific including China and India are expected to drive product demand over the forecast period. Furthermore, rapid urbanization along with infrastructure development drives consumer goods demand across these countries which is likely to benefit industry growth over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals
- Growing awareness about the benefits of (R)-glycidol among consumers
- Rising investment in research and development activities for the production of (R)-glycidol
- Expansion of distribution channels by key players in the market
- Emergence of new applications for (R)-glycidol in various end-use industries
