Report analyses the Global Acetone Market size, shares, recent trends, competitive intelligence, and future market outlook. Demand from Construction, Cosmetics, Electronics, Automotive in Asia Pacific is rising. Competitive rivalry intensifies with Mitsui Chemicals, Sunoco, U.S. Chemicals and others operating in the market.
Acetone, also known as dimethyl ketone, is an inflammable, colorless, transparent, and volatile fluid compound with a sweet odor which is the purest form of the ketone. Propylene is used as a feedstock for the production of most acetone.
Acetone is used as a direct solvent and as a pioneer of methyl methacrylate (MMA), methacrylic acid, bisphenol-A (BPA), and aldol chemicals.
It has applications such as heavy metal degreaser, cleaning tools, and chemical peeling in the pharmaceuticals, acetone cyanohydrin personal care, epoxy resin paints & coatings, and construction end-use industries.
Acetone is used in the production of polycarbonate which is a raw material in the manufacturing of insulation for electrical applications.
Methyl methacrylate (MMA) is in demand, and its use in LCDs for the consumer electronics market is estimated to be a significant driver for the exchange of acetone in the forecast period.
