Market Report I 2023-07-05 I 141 Pages I IMARC Group
Market Overview 2023-2028:
The global linear alpha olefins market size reached US$ 9.2 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 12.3 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.08% during 2023-2028.
Linear alpha olefins (LAOs) are unbranched alkenes or hydrocarbons joined by linear chains and one double bond at the first carbon atom of the chain. They are either produced by the oligomerization of ethylene molecules or by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, followed by purification. They help enhance the toughness, tear strength, and impact resistance of polymers, making them suitable for being used in the production of toys, grocery bags, and food and beverage containers. They are also used as co-monomers for manufacturing polyethylene, plastic packaging, inks, waxes, cosmetic emollients, color concentrates, high-performing engines, and industrial oils. Besides this, LAOs are tailored to meet individual specifications and provide vast options for new chemical development.
Linear Alpha Olefins Market Trends:
Rapid industrialization and the escalating demand for polyethylene (PE) in numerous industry verticals represent one of the key factors positively influencing the market. LAOs are widely used as co-monomers in the manufacturing of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). In addition, there is a rise in the widespread adoption of the product in the burgeoning automotive industry to maintain and manage the spare parts of motorized vehicles. Apart from this, LAOs are utilized as raw materials in pulp and paper, pharmaceutical, coatings, and cosmetic industries to prepare various finished products. Furthermore, leading market players are employing advanced technologies to improve the cost-efficiency and productivity of the LAOs. They are focusing on introducing organic variants that help reduce waste and support environmental health. Moreover, increasing investments in research and development (R&D) projects to develop more advanced product variants are expected to propel market growth.
