SEATTLE, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Global Propylene Market is estimated to account for 145.3 Million Metric Tons by end of 2027, Says Coherent Market Insights (CMI)

The global Propylene market is estimated to account for 145.3 Million Metric Tons in terms of volume by the end of 2027, witnessing a CAGR of 3.8%.

Propylene or propene is an unsaturated organic compound with the chemical formula of C3H6. It is the simplest member of alkene, which colorless gas with a faint petroleum-like odor. Propylene is an important feedstock in petroleum industry and is used in the production of isopropyl alcohol, propylene glycol, polygas chemical, acrylic acid, acetone, etc. Propylene is primarily used as a humectant; it makes water soluble and stops it from foaming or collecting in clumps. It keeps the surface hydrated and prevents the growth of bacteria and mold. It also serves to prevent corrosion of alloys and metals by providing an electrochemical charge to maintain their properties.

Market Drivers

1.   Rising demand for commercial vehicles is expected to drive growth of the global propylene market during the forecast period

The propylene is widely used in in commercial vehicles as lubricant. Propylene has a unique characteristic that makes it particularly useful in many areas where automotive lubrication is concerned. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, in 2019, over 18 million commercial vehicles were produced across the globe, of which around 19% were manufactured in Europe with China accounting for the largest share. The demand for commercial vehicles is increasing in both developed and emerging economies for transportation goods as well as passengers. Thus, these factors are expected to drive growth of the global propylene market during the forecast period.

2.   High demand for sustainable packaging is expected to propel the global propylene market growth over the forecast period

Propylene is widely used in packaging industry where it acts as perfect packaging solution for nuts, sauces, and rice. Besides, it offer resistance to heat sealing and thus, it can be used for food packaging with hot tack. Hence, such factors are expected to propel the global propylene market growth over the forecast period.
