Global Butanal Market Analysis & Forecast to 2023 - Applications for Neopentyl Glycol Has Been Growing With the Highest Rate of About 6.33% Per Year - ResearchAndMarkets.com

The "The Global Butanal Market" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

According to a recently conducted research about the global butanal market, as an overall, it is projected to reach approximately 11,219 thousand tons by the end of 2023, increasing at a CAGR of around 3% per year in the period 2017-2023.
The report focuses on both product and regional breakdown, offering a larger perspective on the market dynamics. Since butanal is predominantly used as a raw material for the production of a wide range of chemicals, the analysis considers the application of butanal across various industries.
In particular, the largest share of butanal consumption is for the production of 2-Ethylhexanol, which accounted for around 40% of the total in volume terms. Meanwhile, the chemical's application for neopentyl glycol has been growing with the highest rate of about 6.33% per year.
Regionally, the largest global butanal market was North East Asia, which accounted for about 50% of the total in volume terms. In comparison, South and Central America was the smallest global butanal market during the analyzed period and is expected to remain such in the medium term.
The numerous applications of the downstream derivatives of butanal are the main reason for its increasing demand from various end-use industries. In fact, pharmaceutical and plastic industries are the leading contributors for the growing demand for butyraldehyde.
Furthermore, butanal's use as a pesticide and crop protection chemical has been also positively influencing the overall butyraldehyde market. However, its use as a pesticide poses health hazard and environmental threats, which may hinder the market growth over the next few years.
In Europe and the USA, there are strict regulations regarding the manufacture, use, storage and transportation of butanal. As for the application segments, the trend in North America, Africa and Russia is opposite than the global one. In the USA, the n-butanol consumption segment is larger than the 2-EH segment.
In addition, due to the broad applications of butanal such as the synthesis of diverse C4-C8 alcohols, carboxylic acids, esters, and amines, in combination with its high demand, the chemical is suitable to be produced from biomass.
