Acetone Market by Applications (Bisphenol A, Methyl Methacrylate, Solvents, Methyl Isobutyl Ketone, and Other Applications), End-user Industries (Electronics, Cosmetics and Personal Care, Automotive, Paints, Pharmaceutical, Coatings and Adhesives, Textile Industry, and Other End-user Industries), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028
The global acetone market size is projected to register a significant CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing demand for acetone derived polycarbonate from the automobile industry.
Acetone is part of aliphatic ketones class. The development of acetone includes reaction of benzene alkylate with propylene that produces cumenes, which is then oxidized with the help of air to create acetone and phenol as a by-product. Generally, phenol plants are integrated with acetone. It is used as solvents for oils, fats, waxes, rubber, resins, plastics, varnishes, lacquers, and rubber cement. Moreover, it is also used as an intermediate in the production of methyl methacrylate, bisphenol A, and methyl isobutyl ketone.
Acetone is a colorless, odourless, and volatile liquid with sweet odour. Acetone occurs naturally in the environment. It is also found in body but in less amount. The body produces acetone when it burns fat for energy instead of glucose. Exposure to acetone leads to nose, skin or eye irritation and the swallowing can lead to series poisoning.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Rising demand for methyl methacrylate and bisphenol-A from various end-user industries is expected to drive the market growth.
- Increasing demand for acetone-based food grade bottles can spur the market growth in the projected timeline.
- Growing use of acrylic glass fiber in the construction industry is estimated to fuel the market growth during the forecast period.
- Inhalation and consumption of acetone may lead to skin irritation in workers, which can inhibit the market growth.
- High flammability and acute toxicity can restrict the market development.
- Growing demand for acetone in the pharmaceutical industry can create lucrative opportunity for market players.
