Market Synopsis
Global Polyols Market is expected to get evaluated colossally at a modest CAGR during the review period of 2017-2023.
A polyol is an organic compound containing multiple hydroxyl groups. Polyol term is encountered in both food and polymer chemistry. Polyols are predominantly used in polymer chemistry to manufacture polyurethanes by reaction with isocyanates, which is largely used to manufacture polyurethane foams coatings, adhesives & sealants, elastomers, and others. Polyurethane foams are extensively used for insulation applications in building & construction, automotive, furnishing, electronics, and packaging industry among other. Flexible and rigid polyurethane foams are the most commonly used foams for insulation and packaging purpose in different end-use industries.
Polyols are broadly categorized into two types namely polyether polyols and polyester polyols. The polyester polyols are produced by polycondensation reactions between diols and dicarboxylic acids. Esterification and transesterification as well as combinations of both reactions are used to make polyester polyols. A polyether polyol is the polymeric reaction product of an organic oxide, mainly propylene oxide or ethylene oxide and an initiator compound containing two or more active hydrogen atoms in the presence of catalyst potassium hydroxide. The global polyol market is witnessing a significant growth due to rising demand for polyurethane across various end-user industries, such as construction, automotive, furnishing, electronics, footwear, and others.
Growing building & construction industry due to rapid industrialization & urbanization in developing countries and various infrastructural development projects across the globe is expected to drive strong demand for polyurethanes for insulation application. Therefore, it is expected to impact the polyols market over the forecast period positively. Additionally, the automotive industry is also likely to showcase a surge in the demand for manufacturing of polyurethane insulation application during the forecast period. Furthermore, rising demand for consumer appliances due to increasing purchasing power is also expected to add to the market growth for insulation and coating applications during the forecast period.
Furthermore, numerous manufacturers are stepping into the production of bio-based polyols from feedstock such as castor, corn, soy, rapeseed, canola, palm, etc. For instance, Vertellus Holdings LLC of Middlesbrough, the U.K started the production of bio-based polyols using castor oil. Additionally, Mitsui Chemicals and SKC Co., Ltd. have made a joint venture to facilitate the operations of the bio-based polyols in the Gujarat state of India at Vithal Castor Polyols Pvt. Ltd. using Indian castor oil from non-edible plants as a main raw material.
However, with the growing popularity of bio-based polyols, the market for synthetic polyols is likely to face major challenges during the forecast period.
