Piperylene Market

Piperylene Market Overview

Piperylene is an organic compound that falls under the class of alkenes with chemical IUPAC name of 1,3 pentadiene. Piperylene compound has an appearance of colorless liquid with acrid odor and is moderately toxic in nature. Piperylene is found as a byproduct during the synthesis and production of ethylene in naptha cracking unit from crude oil.

On commercial level, the Piperylene is regarded as important monomer for the synthesis of adhesives, plastics, resins and intermediates. The end products manufactured using piperylene captures a large market share in application like the manufacturing of parcel tapes, envelopes, diaper fastenings, inks and building materials.

The compound is considered preferred choice as an ingredient in many application industries owing to its properties like high mechanical strength, toughness, and resistance towards corrosion and radiation. The piperylene compound is also used for production of resins required for pressure sensitive and hot melting application such as waterproof coatings, road marking paint and rubber traffic equipment.

The production and consumption of the polymers and derivatives derived from piperylene in terms of volume is dominated by the Asia Pacific, Europe and North America region. In Asia Pacific, developing economies such as China and India are growing at an exceptional pace in past few years and capturing exceptional market share in terms of volume and revenue. However, the countries located in the Western Europe region are expected to drive the utilization of the piperylene based products.
