The oxo alcohol market will be witnessing a rise in demand owing to the ever-rising requirement from several industries. Oxo alcohols such as 2-propylheptanol, iso-butanol, isononanol, 2- ethylhexanol, and n-butanol are majorly utilized types of oxo alcohols and are anticipated to gain commercial importance in the approaching years.
Additionally, they are widely employed across several industries for the production of drugs, acetates, ethers, coatings, polishers, cleaners, adhesives, solubilizers, specialty chemicals, and printing inks. This is projected to escalate sales of oxo alcohol over the assessment period, 2020-2030.
Growing demand for plasticizers from several end-user sectors has been a noteworthy aspect of driving the market. Oxo alcohols such as n-butanol are used in numerous applications such as acrylate, acetate, glycol ethers, and solvents. 2-ethylhexanol is additionally employed in several specialty plasticizers such as trimelliates, phosphates, and adipates, where higher performance is demanded.
This ever-demanding plasticizer sector together with increasing demand from the solvents sector will be the foremost drivers in the global market over the forecast period. BASF has the maximum production capacity of Sinopec and n-Butyl alcohol has surfaced as the prominent player in the manufacturing of 2-Ethylhexanol.
The flourishing construction sector is another prominent aspect of fueling the market growth. PVC products form a vital part of the construction sector which, in turn, is compelling the needs for these alcohols.
Furthermore, market players are focusing on R&D activities for the development of efficient and new variants. For instance,
BioPure™ launched nC4-OL, a versatile oxo-chemical and a high purity n-butyl alcohol in the market. This bio-based alcohol is extensively utilized in the production of esters used for hair care, skincare, and fragrance products.
Strict environmental regulations together with the oxo alcohol sector are anticipated to impede the market expansion over the years to come. Shifting raw material costs such as derivatives and crude oil that are utilized in the production of oxo alcohols are additionally anticipated to hinder the development pace of the oxo alcohols market, thus hampering the market growth.
COVID-19 pandemic has widely impacted several sectors and the oxo alcohol market is no different. The market player in the market is operating to help meet the requirements of those fighting this pandemic on the front lines, in addition to those who are strictly following socially distancing at home.
