[Online Quarterly Update] 4-Octylphenol Market achieved 435 thousand tonnes in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a healthy CAGR of 4.84% during the forecast period 2022-2030. Octylphenols are a large number of isomeric compounds that belong to the family of high purity alkylphenols. They are widely used as an intermediate in the production of phenol/formaldehyde resins as well as in the manufacturing of octylphenol ethoxylates. 4-Octylphenol with a chemical formula C14H22O also known as p-tert-Octylphenol comes under a class of phenols, which is substituted at the para- position by an Octyl group. It is manufactured from phenol and diisobutylene using DIC's proprietary techniques. 4- Octylphenols play a huge role as a xenoestrogen, a surfactant, and a metabolite. They are extensively used for various commercial applications such as raw materials for synthetic chemicals, chemical intermediate to UV stabilizers, products for children (e.g., Toys, children's cosmetics), food packaging, paper plates, cutlery, oil phenolic resins, surfactants, pesticides, and many others. 4-Octylphenol also finds its applications in the manufacturing of detergents, emulsifiers, dispersants, wetting agents, cleaning agents, foaming agents, etc. Many industries use 4-Octylphenols as additives in the production of rubbers, lubricating oils, films, or molding materials in order to improve the stability and shelf life. On the basis of purity, the global 4- Octylphenol market is segmented into 99% purity and 99.5% purity. Based on end-use application, the growing demand of 4-Octylphenol as a raw material for the manufacturing of phenolic resins to produce rubbers, paints, etc., is dominating the global 4- Octylphenol market and is forecasted to maintain its dominance over the next ten years.
In 2020, due to the outbreak of COVID-19, leading authorities in many major global economies like India and China, caused nationwide lockdowns, in order to curb the spread of coronavirus, due to which several industries were negatively affected. There was a decline in the demand for 4-Octylphenol due to disruptions in the global supply chain. However, the demand for 4-Octylphenol by the surfactants industry witnessed a positive impact due to the surging demand for disinfectants and detergents during the first half of 2020. With the gradual reopening of market, the demand for 4-Octylphenol is likely to bolster by the end of the year.
Among different regions, the Asia Pacific region is likely to dominate the global 4-Octylphenol market in the forecast period due to the presence of major end-use industries like cleaning chemicals in emerging countries like China, India, and others. In the Asia Pacific region, China is the largest consumer of 4-Octylphenol, owing to a large number of manufacturers of various end-uses, further propelling the market growth of 4-Octylphenol in the Asia Pacific region.
Some of the major key players operating in the global 4-Octylphenol market include SI Group, Sasol, DIC Corporation, ICC Industries B.V, Leap Chem Co. Ltd., Skyrun Industrial Co. Ltd, Prasol Chemicals Pvt. Ltd., PCC Group, Hexian GmbH, and others. Sasol Group of Companies produce high quality alkylphenols on a large-scale on modern plants using longstanding processing techniques which are highly demanded by various industries including plastics and rubber additive, lubricant and motor oil, resin and paint, and others.
