Nonene is a flammable, transparent liquid. Chemical intermediates are utilized in the synthesis of plasticizers, coatings, surfactants, and detergents, and it is largely used to make them. Propylene's nonene is an essential trimer.
The polymerization of propylene yields nonene. Nonene has the chemical formula C9H18 and is a branching alkene. Nonene is a flammable, transparent liquid. Chemical intermediates are utilized in the synthesis of plasticizers, coatings, surfactants, and detergents, and it is largely used to make them. The nonene market can be divided into isodecyl alcohol, neodeconoic acid, nonyl phenol, and isononyl mercaptan based on end-use. Surfactants and specialty chemicals are made with these substances and are employed in industries like agrochemicals, personal care, home care, and paints and coatings. Surfactant manufacturers can create novel shampoos, detergents, and surface cleansers by employing nonene. The nonene market can be divided into two types based on grade: technical grade and industrial grade.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
COVID-19 sickness began to spread over the world in early 2021, infecting millions of people globally, prompting major countries around the world to impose foot prohibitions and work stoppage orders. Except for the medical supplies and life support products businesses, most industries have been severely hit, including the Nonene industry. Under the current circumstances, major industries are unable to function.
Industries that use Nonene extensively, such as sports apparel and automobile, are also closed, resulting in lower demand for the product. Major firms involved in product manufacture are also not operating in the current circumstances, resulting in a decrease in the supply side of the market. The demand for nonene market is projected to increase as the situation returns to normal and the industries resume operations. In addition, market participants who are not now operating are working on product innovations so that when the situation returns to normal, they can capture a larger market share. This is projected to fuel the market's expansion even more.
Top Impacting Factors
The nonene market is being driven by an increase in demand for plasticizers, surfactants, and lubricant additives in end-use sectors such as paints and coatings, detergents, and textiles. The nonene market in emerging nations is being fuelled by the increasing use of nonyl phenol ethylates (NPEs) in the textile sector. The market is also being driven by the low cost of nonene products and the industrial flexibility they provide. The nonene market, on the other hand, is expected to be hampered by the introduction of strict rules on propylene trimers throughout the projected period.
Market Trends
- During the projected period, booming automotive production along with rising demand from the oil and gas industry are likely to be the primary factors driving product demand. Furthermore, during the projection period, the increased demand for surfactants, mostly from developing nations, would provide abundant chances for the global nonene (propylene trimer) and tetramer markets to grow.
- However, over the forecast period, the availability of alternative efficient nonene (propylene trimer) and tetramer alternatives, as well as rigorous government rules prohibiting the use of non-biodegradable chemicals, are expected to be important market barriers.
- Chemical intermediates, plasticizers, additives, and antioxidants are the application segments of the worldwide nonene market. Iso-decanol, Di-nonyl naphthalene, neodecanoic acid & esters, nonenyl succinic anhydride, nonylated diphenylamine, nonyl mercaptan, nonylphenol and ethoxylates, and others make up the chemical intermediates sector.
- Iso-decanol led the worldwide nonene market in 2018 and will continue to lead during the projected period, according to the aforementioned chemical intermediates sector. It's utilized in a lot of cosmetics, detergents, and cleaning products.
- In the global nonene market, nonylphenol earned considerable revenue in 2018. It is frequently used in the tire industry as a grease addition and as a curing agent in the production of epoxy resins.
- Paints and coatings demand will be boosted by rising infrastructure investment in emerging countries, which would drive nonylphenol demand. China and India are the two most profitable countries in the worldwide nonylphenol market.
- North America and Europe were key regions in terms of consumption in 2018, and product demand is expected to rise in the coming years. rising product demand for chemical intermediates will propel regional nonene market size expansion. During the projected period, Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the fastest rate.
- Over the projected period, Asia Pacific is expected to be a prominent revenue-generating region in the worldwide tetramer market. The increased demand for oil additive in the automobile industry, combined with the region's developing industrialization, would have a beneficial impact on the worldwide tetramer market growth in the future years.
- The relocation of vehicle manufacturing facilities to the region has resulted in an increase in automobile production, which will benefit the tetramer market size over the projection period.
- The increased demand for lubricants and chemical surfactants is one of the main drivers of this expansion. Furthermore, the presence of significant tetramer makers such as Royal Dutch Shell plc, Exxon Mobil, and Dow Chemical Company would boost market size during the study period.
