REPORT ID: BKR630 | Domain: Chemicals | Published Date: April 2018 | Format: PDF |
The global alpha olefins market size is estimated to be valued at USD 9,163 million in 2018 and will register a CAGR of 4.2% to create revenue opportunity of USD 4,982 million over the forecast period.
It is primarily manufactured by catalytic oligomerization of ethylene. The alpha-olefins market has witnessed a series of developments post 2010. Raw material prices has skyrocketed in 2010 before stabilizing in mid of 2013. Since then, leading companies including Ineos, Chevron Phillips, and Shell in order to minimize operational cost, are focusing on business expansion in developing regions. Demand has continued to grow in the first half of 2017 and the trend is likely to be for next two to three years a phased stagnant growth.
Global Alpha Olefins Market Drivers and Challenges
Regulatory compliances is expected to play a key role in overall development and sales of alpha olefin globally. REACH and the U.S. EPA recognize it as nontoxic chemical to human population and thus alternative products have lower chances to penetrate.
Demand for the product is expected to be stable owing to its consistent demand from LLDPE application. As per the estimates, LLDPE accounted for over 41% of total alpha olefins market share. Furthermore, its increasing usage in plasticizers and lubricants will ensure profitability margin over longer period of time. Sluggish demand for oil has had its effect on overall alpha olefins industry – however – was short term in nature and will witness healthy growth between 2018 and 2028.
Global Alpha Olefins Market Analysis, By Product Type
Globally, 1-Hexane is expected to dominate the global alpha olefins market size throughout the forecast period. It is widely used in production of hexyl mercaptans, oxo alcohols, and synthetic fatty acids.
Among product type, 1-Octene is expected to register fastest growth of 8.2% between 2018 and 2028. It will grow by 2.5X to reach USD 1,058 million by 2028. This translates to 476 basis points increase in its value.
