Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 10/18/2018 --Tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) is an easily available and convenient source of active oxygen suitable for diverse oxidation technologies. Epoxidation of propylene to propylene oxide is the largest commercial application of TBHP. TBHP is also used in production of specialty chemicals needed in fine chemical and performance chemical industries such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It can selectively oxidize hydrocarbons, olefins, and alcohols. Asymmetric epoxidation and kinetic resolution with TBHP can provide access to complex chiral intermediates.

The main drawback of the market is that usage of tert-butyl hydroperoxide-based process is limited, while that of other processes is growing. Many companies have come up with proprietary technologies for the production of PO that do not involve the use of TBHP. Companies are also collaborating with each other by examining their PO production processes and developing joint-innovative processes. These factors are likely to act as restraints of the global TBHP market.

According to a Transparency Market Research report, the global tert-butyl hydroperoxide market was valued at US$ 121.06 Mn in 2016 and is estimated to reach US$ 136.41 Mn by 2025, expanding at a CAGR of 1.3% between 2017 and 2025.

Polymerization Initiator Application Driving Market

Depending upon application, the key segments of the global tert-butyl hydroperoxide market are polymerization initiator, chemical synthesis, curing agent, etc. Of them, polymerization initiator and chemical synthesis application segments are said to be driving the market. The usage of TBHP in various applications in different region is diversified, with polymerization initiator generally dominating the demand. By clocking a maximum CAGR of 1.4% from 2017 to 2025, the global tert-butyl hydroperoxide market is expected to grow its revenue share to 46.61% by 2025. Curing agents follow in the second position in terms of revenue share. Vis-à-vis growth rate, chemical synthesis is also expected to register the same CAGR as polymerization initiator.

However, the application segments are expected to exhibit differentiated growth potential across different regions and countries.
