India Linear Alpha Olefin Market Analysis: Plant Capacity, Production, Operating Efficiency, Demand & Supply, Type, End-User Industries, Sales Channel, Regional Demand, Foreign Trade, FY2015-FY2035

Online Database I 2023-05-01 I ChemAnalyst

The India Linear Alpha Olefin (LAO) market has hit approximately 250 thousand tonnes in FY2023 and is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 5.41% by FY2035.

Alpha olefins are olefins or alkenes having the chemical formula CnH2n. The regularity of the hydrocarbon chain and the placement of the double bond at the main or alpha position distinguish alpha olefins from other mono-olefins with a similar molecular formula. They are synthesized by the oligomerization of ethylene or the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, followed by the purification process. There are many kinds of linear alpha olefins including Butene-1, Hexene-1, Octene-1, Decene-1, Dodecene-1, C14-C18, and C20 & Above. The chain length directly influences the chemical property of the olefin. They are used for the production of polyethylene, lubricant, cleansers, plasticizers, petroleum industry chemicals, and specialty chemicals.

The market for Linear Alpha Olefin is primarily driven by its application as a feedstock to manufacture polyethylene. LAOs like 1-butene, 1-hexene, and 1-octene are employed to make polyethylene. Approximately 2-4% of comonomers are used in high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and 8-10% in linear low-density polyethylene (LDPE). In general, polyethylenes have good electrical insulating nature, great chemical and impact resistance, and a low coefficient of friction. Polyethylenes are also lightweight, simple to produce, and have almost no moisture absorption. LDPE is frequently used as a packaging material for ready-to-eat meals, snacks, chips, juices, water bottles, etc. with growing consumer demand for processed food & beverages across the nation, the demand of this plastic is anticipated to rise. Furthermore, HDPE is used for applications like manufacturing automotive body, which is anticipated to further fuel the demand for polyethylene, thus LAO as a feedstock in the forecast period. Polyalphaolefin (PAO), one of the derivatives of LAO is a popular synthetic base oil that finds its application in industrial and automotive lubricants, which further fuels the LAO market expansion. The Linear Alpha Olefin market volume is estimated to reach approximately 470 thousand tonnes by FY2035.

Based on type, the India Linear Alpha Olefin market is segregated into Butene-1, Hexene-1, Octene-1, Decene-1, Dodecene-1, Tetradecene-1, C14-C18, and Others. Among these, Butene-1 is the leading type and possess properties like high tensile strength. The manufacturing of high-quality polymers like polyethylene and polypropylene mostly uses butene-1 which are further employed as packaging supplies like films, bags, and food packaging.


Based on the region, the India Linear Alpha Olefin market is segregated into the West, South, North, and East. As of FY2023, West India has been leading the market, followed closely by North India. States like Gujarat. Rajasthan Maharashtra has been the key consumer of Linear Alpha Olefin due to the presence of leading plasticizer industries located in these states. Although, it is anticipated that in the forthcoming years, North India is anticipated to experience a surge in demand. Recently, a new 1-butene plant by HPCL-Mittal Energy Limited (HMEL) situated at Bhatinda, Punjab, began its operation to cater to the growing demand for Linear Alpha Olefin across the nation. Additionally, some amount of demand is met via imports by different countries with Saudi Arabia being the key exporter.

Based on end-use, the India Linear Alpha Olefin market is segregated into Polyethylene, Polyalphaolefins, Oxo alcohols, and Others. Among these, the Polyethylene industry is dominating the LAO market. In FY2023, displayed a consumption of nearly 75% of the market. Being a versatile polymer, polyethylene is widely used for applications like coating wires & cables, food packaging, flexible packaging, sealants, toys, and mixing with other polymers. With the growing population, a surge in the demand for this polymer is expected.
