Albany, NY -- (SBWire) -- 01/20/2017 --Petrochemicals are chemical products derived from crude oil and natural gas. Petrochemicals play an important role in the chemicals industry. Various chemicals are derived from petrochemicals. Petrochemicals significantly impact the economic growth and development of the manufacturing industry. Hence, the importance of value addition in the petrochemicals market is higher than in any other industrial sector. Petrochemicals are used in almost all the sectors; however, these are primarily used in construction, agriculture, packaging, automotive and electrical & electronics industries. Therefore, growth in these end-use industries, especially in Asia Pacific, is anticipated to boost the petrochemicals market during the forecast period. Abundant availability of raw materials, especially in the Middle East, is further augmenting market growth. However, shift towards bio-based chemicals coupled with environmental issues arising due to the usage of various petrochemicals is expected to hamper market growth during the forecast period. Furthermore, volatility in prices of raw materials is projected to negatively affect market growth. Shale gas evolution in North America is likely to change the dynamics of the global petrochemicals industry by 2020.

Ethylene is considered the building block for producing various intermediary chemicals and their derivatives. Ethylene was the leading petrochemical product, accounting for over 25% share of the global petrochemicals market in 2013. Global demand for ethylene is anticipated to be led by rising demand for polyethylene in major end-use industries such as packaging. Ethylene was followed by propylene and methanol, respectively, in terms of volume in 2013. In terms of revenue, the propylene market is estimated to reach US$ 172.05 Bn by 2020. Demand for butadiene in Rest of Asia Pacific is anticipated to increase due to higher demand for butadiene in acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and styrene-butadiene rubber. Methanol is projected to be the fastest growing product segment between 2014 and 2020. Growth of methanol is directly related to its increasing usage in gasoline blending and methanol to olefins (MTO) processes. Consumption of benzene was the highest in the Rest of Asia Pacific in 2013. However, the market for benzene in the region is likely to grow at a flat rate in terms of volume from 2014 to 2020.
