Alpha Olefin Market - Forecast(2021 - 2026)

 Alpha Olefin Market Overview

Alpha Olefin Market size is forecast to reach $12 billion by 2025, after growing at a CAGR of 5% during 2020-2025. Alpha Olefin is an organic compound mainly synthesized by the oligomerization of ethylene. Alpha olefins are used in the production of high density and Low density polyethylene. Surging demand of polyethylene from packaging industries is augmenting the growth of alpha olefin market. Increasing use of alpha olefin in formulation of drilling fluids for oil and gas industries is also boosting the growth of alpha olefin market. Alpha olefins are also used in synthesis of surfactants, this may aid the growth of market.


Report Coverage

By Geography: North America, South America, Europe, APAC, and RoW


Key Takeaways

  • Among the regions, Asia-Pacific region is projected to witness the highest growth during forecast period and China hold the largest share throughout the forecast period
  • Surging demand of fuel additives for better engine performance and low greenhouse gases emission is boosting the growth of alpha olefin market.
  • The outbreak of coronavirus has disrupted the supply chain which in turn hampered the growth of alpha olefin market. According to World trade Organization global trade may fall by between 13% and 32% in 2020 as the COVID 19 pandemic has disrupted normal economic activity.


Type - Segment Analysis

Linear alpha olefin segment holds the largest share of more than 55% in the alpha olefin market in 2019. Linear alpha olefins are widely used in the production of plasticizers. Plasticizers are added to high weight polymers such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for making it more flexible, durable, and elastic. Increasing use of polyvinyl chloride in wire and cable insulation, windshield system, and piping and tubing applications is accelerating the use of plasticizers, which in turn boosts the growth of alpha olefin market. According to trade map, worldwide import of compound plasticizers for rubber or plastics increased from 383,491 tons in 2017 to 401,347 tons in 2018, subsequently raising the demand for alpha olefins.


Application - Segment Analysis

Based on the application, polyolefin co-monomer segment holds the largest share of more than 25% in the alpha olefin market in 2019. 1-butene, 1-hexene, and 1-octene are used as co-monomer in the production of High-density polyethylene (HDPE) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE). Polyethylene is economical with low co-efficient of friction, excellent chemical & moisture resistance and lightweight properties. Rising demand for polyethylene on account of growing automotive and construction activities is augmenting the growth of the alpha olefin market. According to All India Plastics Manufacturers' Association (AIPMA), India’s polyethylene demand may increase by 129%, surpassing Asia’s projected growth rate of 81% by 2023. Thus increase in demand of polyethylene fuels the growth of alpha olefin market.
