(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/8t49zx/the_global) has
announced the addition of the "The Global Propylene Market" report
to their offering.
Propylene is the second most important product of the olefin
market, it is predominantly consumed in the production of plastics
and in chemicals. Consumed either as Polypropylene, Acrylic acid,
Acrylonitrile, Propylene oxide, cumene, oxo-alcohols and
epichlorohydrin.
Polypropylene is the largest end use for propylene demand,
accounting for the majority of its consumption growth. It competes
with polyethylene in the films and packaging and competes with
other polymers. It is a commodity polymer used in a wide range of
end use segments, including packaging, films and in agriculture,
construction and automotive applications.
The demand growth of propylene has been outpacing supplies from
steam cracking and refinery sources. Propylene pricing has
traditionally been lower than ethylene though the situation has
become less stable recently, the main driver being US producers
switching to lighter feeds. This report analyses the influence of
the increasingly lighter feedstocks influence on propylene
production. The majority of capacity developments is due to on
purpose production particularly methanol to olefins and propane
dehydrogenation technology.
This report provides intelligence and analysis on Propylene
supply sources, demand drivers and trade. The report includes a 5
year history and 10 year forecast for all major producing regions
listed below with new capacity additions documented. This report
provides intelligence and analysis on Propylene supply sources,
demand drivers and trade.
The report includes demand of propylene into its end use
applications such as polypropylene, acrylic acid, propylene oxide,
etc., making use of intelligence within our data base to obtain a
detailed analysis of demand based on derivative consumption. An
overview of each of the commercial technologies mentioned will be
included in the appendix along with a detailed methodology.
