Market Dynamics

Driver: Increasing the market's demand for polypropylene to spur growth.

Over the expected year, rising polypropylene demand will likely fuel petrochemicals' market growth. Polypropylene makes many items for the house, cars, and medical equipment. Due to its high mechanical properties and moldability, polypropylene is widely used in producing numerous goods, including automotive parts. In electric cars, polypropylene is being used increasingly to counteract the battery's weight. It is also used to insulate high-voltage gearbox lines and the interiors of automobiles. By 2025, electric and hybrid electric car sales are expected to account for 30% of all new automobile sales. The growing acceptance of e-vehicles is expected to raise demand for polypropylene, ultimately driving the petrochemicals market.

Restraints: environmental concerns.

The production of petrochemicals increases soil, water, and air pollution. The effects of this can be felt globally as well as in smaller systems like specific ecosystems. For instance, greenhouse gases released during the production of petrochemicals may impact climate change, which is why their production is discouraged by climate activists and will likely impact the market's growth negatively.

Opportunities: increased petrochemical demand in the electrical and electronics sector.

New materials are typically the starting point for creating new products and technological improvements in the electronics and electrical industries. The current electronics and electrical sector extensively relies on petrochemical chemicals to manufacture electronics and electrical items. Many everyday things, including CD players, phones, radios, computers, and TVs, are produced on a large scale due to the petrochemical industry. This is because a number of the raw materials required for the success of the electronic sector are produced and supplied by the petrochemical industry. Petrochemical products in the electronics industry excel in electrical insulation, safety, data storage, ease of assembly, and downsizing. Microchips, the brains of computers, are created using petrochemicals. The catchphrase of the electronics sector is "petroleum chemistry." It includes chips, printed circuit boards (PCBs), wires, and connectors. Demand for petrochemical services is anticipated to rise in the near future due to expansion in the global electronics sector.

Challenges: the government policies for a green economy.

The climate change crisis has prompted action from government organizations, contributing negatively to the market's growth. The climate change policies to cut greenhouse emissions and restrict temperature rise will negatively affect the market's growth.
