1,3-Propanediol is a colorless, viscous liquid having a boiling point of 210℃. It is non-miscible and the melting point of the liquid is 246 kelvin. It is used in the formation of polymers like poly trimethylene terephthalate. It is also an aprotic solvent, also used as antifreeze and in coatings and wood paints. It is formed by the hydration of an aldehyde called propenal or acrolein.

1,3-Propanediol Market Dynamics and Trends

The major factor driving the rising demand for Global 1,3-Propanediol is the use of 1,3-propanediol in the production of polyesters, polyethers and polyurethanes. It is also used in cosmetics, personal care and cleaning products. An increase in focus on eco-friendly products is also driving the market for bio-based 1,3-propanediol.

Increasing Use of Polyesters, Polyethers and Polyurethanes is driving the growth of the market

1,3-propanediol is used in the synthesis of polyethers, polyesters, and polyurethanes and polymethylene terephthalate. It is used in cosmetics, food flavours, personal care products, engine coolants and transfer fluids. Polyesters are used in various industries like clothing, audiotapes, electrical insulation, X-ray films etc and their demand is increasing which is increasing the market growth of 1,3-propanediol. Polyurethanes are used in the textile industry, paints and coatings. Polyethers are used in adhesives, elastomers, flexible foams etc. Poly trimethylene terephthalate(PTT) is used in the textile industry and also in the manufacturing of sportswear, carpet etc.

An increase in the use of eco-friendly products is also driving the growth of the market

Increasing the focus on eco-friendly products due to environmental regulations is driving the growth of the market of bio-based 1,3-propanediol(PDO). People are becoming more aware of eco-friendly products as conventional resources are depleting. Companies like DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products Company, LLC are producing 1,3-propanediol using renewable livestock like crude glycerol. Many companies are using biological processes for the manufacture of 1,3-propanediol. Some companies are expanding their production like DuPont Tate & Lyle Bio Products Company, LLC expanded their manufacturing facility to Loudon, Tennessee in 2018 to produce 35 million pounds bio-based 1,3-propanediol annually along with 135 million pounds. Even many governments are making plans to shift to a bio-based economy as many agreements have been made recently like European union want a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 and 25% of chemicals will be bio-based in the European Union by 2030. According to the report by Dupont and Tate& Lyle, 47% fewer greenhouse emissions are produced by bio-based PDO than petroleum-based PDO and bio-based PDO produces 42% fewer emissions than propylene glycol, and bio-based PDO produces 48% fewer emissions than butanediol. Petroleum-based PDO harms the environment and is quite expensive.

The Presence of low costly substitutes and lack of awareness among the people are hampering the growth of the Global 1,3-Propanediol Market.

COVID-19 Impact on 1,3-Propanediol

The Global 1,3-Propanediol  Market has shown a slight decline due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as there were full or partial lockdowns in many countries of the world. 1,3 propanediol(PDO) is used in the production of polyesters, polyethers, polyurethanes, and poly trimethylene terephthalate. Poly trimethylene terephthalate(PTT) is used in the textile industry and also in the manufacturing of sportswear, carpet, etc. Due to the restrictions due to lockdown, demand for sportswear and other types of apparel declined during the pandemic. According to the reports, the global sports apparel market was USD 181 billion in 2019 and decreased to USD 178 billion in 2020. It is expected that the sports market will grow due to more promotional activities over E-commerce sites. It is used in cosmetics, food flavors, personal care products. During the pandemic, the cosmetics industry declined as there was less demand for both regional and professional users due to travel restrictions. Beauty parlors, salons were also closed in major parts of the world. France, and the USA, which are the biggest producers of cosmetics, skincare products were in really bad conditions, so factories were shut down. Covid-19 also affected the textile industry as many factories were closed down and the global supply chain was also affected but the demand for masks and other essentials saved the industry from declining. These factors affected the market of 1,3-propanediol.

1,3-Propanediol Market Segment Analysis and Market Share

Global 1,3-Propanediol  is segmented based on Source, Application, End-User Industry, and Region.

Based on the source, the Global 1,3-Propanediol  Market is segmented as - bio-based propanediol and petrochemical-based propanediol.

The bio-based propanediol(PDO) has a significant market share in the Global 1,3-propanediol as people are becoming more aware of the use of bio-based 1,3-propanediol, even the strict regulations are driving the market growth. Increasing demand for biodiesel production is driving the market growth of 1,3-propanediol(PDO) as bio-based PDO is produced with the use of renewable livestock like crude glycerol, corn sugar, etc. crude glycerol is the byproduct released during the production of biodiesel. Increasing the use of biodiesel is due to low carbon emissions, lower cost, low environmental impact. According to the report by Dupont and Tate& Lyle, 47% fewer greenhouse emissions are produced by bio-based PDO than petroleum-based PDO and bio-based PDO produces 42% fewer emissions than propylene glycol, and bio-based PDO produces 48% fewer emissions than butanediol. Even bio-based PDO consumes 42% less non-renewable energy than petroleum-based PDO. Since petroleum is a limited resource and it increases global warming, even natural gas and shale gas are some of the temporary solutions to the problem, so people are focusing more on fossil-free resources which in turn increases the use of bio-based 1,3- propanediol(PDO). An increase in focus on sustainability and green economy and various strategies and plans are taken by governments across the world to shift to the bio-based economy like European union proposed that there should be a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to 1990 and 25% of chemicals should be bio-based in the European Union by 2030. Bio-based PDO can also be used in hair products instead of petroleum glycols. However, petroleum-based glycols like propylene glycol and butylene glycol are cheaper than bio-based PDO and also there are many countries where there are no regulations regarding the use of bio-based products.

Based on application, the Global 1,3-Propanediol market is segmented into poly trimethylene terephthalate(PTT), Polyurethane(PU), Cosmetics, Personal Care, Cleaning Products and others.

Based on End-User Industry, Global 1,3-Propanediol  Market is segmented into Synthetic Drugs, Engineering Plastics, Textile Dyeing and Finishing, and others.
