Overview

Propylene Oxide Market is poised to value USD 32948 million by 2028 end at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period 2022 to 2028.

Propylene oxide is an organic compound with the molecule formula CH3CHCH2O. This colorless liquid with an odour similar to ether is produced in large quantities on an industrial scale. Among its major uses are in the production of polyether polyols, which are used to make polyurethane plastics. While it is commonly used as a racemic mixture, it is a chiral epoxide. In contrast to its isomer 1,3-propylene oxide, also known as oxetane, this compound is sometimes referred to as 1,2-propylene oxide. Propylene oxide is mainly used as an intermediate in the production of polyether polyols and propylene glycol for unsaturated polyester resins. For sterilizing medical equipment and fumigating foodstuffs, small quantities are used.

Polyurethane foams are widely utilised in the construction and automobile industries for cushioning and fabrication. It's also used to insulate refrigerators and in footwear. It also serves as a chemical intermediate in the manufacturing of propylene glycol and polyether resins, which are used in a variety of industries including medical and textiles. Polyurethane end uses include flexible foams for the furniture and automotive industries, as well as rigid foams for appliance and building insulation. Propylene oxide is also used to microbially treat foods and plastic medical instruments, as well as to make di propylene glycol and glycol ethers, herbicides, and solvents. It was also used in racing fuels, but the NHRA in the United States outlawed it due to safety concerns. In surface vehicles and model aeroplanes, however, 2% of the chemical is used as a glow fuel additive to methanol, oil mix, and nitromethane. Thermobaric weapons and the processing of biological samples for electron microscopy are two further uses for propylene oxide. Propylene Oxide, on the other hand, is exceedingly combustible and hazardous, thus it should be handled with caution while working with it. Propylene oxide can irritate the eyes and respiratory tract in humans and animals who are exposed to it on a regular basis. Inhalation exposure can cause coughing, dyspnea (difficulty breathing), and oedema, which can lead to pneumonia. Prolonged skin contact, even with weak solutions, can cause irritation and necrosis. The usage of propylene oxide (PO) in polyether polyols is critical to the market's growth. Furthermore, flexible foam compositions contain more polyol than rigid foam formulations. The demand for foams is increasing at a quicker rate as a result of their increased use in insulation and structural applications, hence driving the expansion of the global propylene oxide market.
