"Global Cumene Market 2014-2018" Now Available at Fast Market Research
Cumene or isopropyl-benzene is a flammable organic compound. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon-based liquid with a boiling point of 305.6 Fahrenheit. It is used industrially as a base chemical to create cumene hydroperoxide in order to produce two commercially essential chemicals, phenol and acetone. For cumene production, recently developed zeolite catalyst-based technology is the most widely used. However, some facilities still use older methods, which include technologies based on aluminum chloride and solid phosphoric acid catalyst.
