The global Ethylene & Propylene Market is predicted to increase at a CAGR of $9.52 billion in 2021
Sales
of ethylene propylene and related services make up the ethylene propylene
market. Ethylene propylene is a synthetic rubber made out of ethylene,
propylene, and a diene-component terpolymer. It's heat and electricity
resistant, and it doesn't react with acids or alkali compounds. Weather-stripping and
seals, glass-run channels, radiators, garden and appliance hoses, tubing,
belts, electrical insulation, roofing membranes, rubber mechanical goods,
plastic impact modification, thermoplastic vulcanizates, and motor oil additive
applications are all examples of industrial applications.
The
global Ethylene & Propylene Market is predicted to increase at a compound
annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.9 percent from $7.62 billion in 2020 to $9.52
billion in 2021. Companies are reorganising their operations and recuperating
from the COVID-19 impact, which had previously resulted in stringent
containment measures such as social isolation, remote working, and the closure
of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges. At a
CAGR of 6%, the market is estimated to reach $11.9 billion in 2025.
The
Ethylene & Propylene Market is divided into two types in this report:
solution polymerization and suspension polymerization.
The
use of ethylene propylene in a variety of industries contributes to the
ethylene propylene market's growth.EPDM materials bond well with metals in the
automobile industry, creating a well-built barrier against the environment.
EPDM's robust, saturated polymer backbone structure provides qualities such as
heat resistance, abrasion resistance, oil swell resistance, flame retardance,
oxidation, ozone, and weather ageing. EPDM is used in a variety of
applications in the automotive industry, including under the hood, cabin
pressure equalising assemblies, interior trim, and striker plate blinds,
according to BRP Manufacturing. As a result, EPDM's use in many sectors is
contributing to the EPDM market's growth.
The
release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the production of ethylene
propylene pollutes the environment, posing a challenge to the EPDM market's
growth. VOCs are a group of compounds that have negative effects on human
health and the environment because they release fine particulates into the
atmosphere, resulting in smog and diminished visibility.For example, the Hong
Kong government has established several laws to prevent dangerous VOC
emissions, such as prohibiting the importation of products that emit more VOCs
than is necessary. Thus, the increased release of VOC from producing ethylene
propylene is limiting its market growth.
A
key factor driving the EPDM market's growth is the rising demand for ethylene
propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber made from bio-based feedstock. To reduce
greenhouse gas emissions and achieve sustainability, renewable EPDM rubber uses
raw materials like sugar and glycerin to substitute traditional synthetic
rubber feedstocks like isoprene and butadiene.For example, Keltan, a business
based in the Netherlands, developed the first commercial bio-based feedstock,
KELTAN® Eco, made from renewable raw materials. As a result, it is projected
that renewable EPDM rubber would gain market share in the EPDM market.
