Platform Chemicals Market - Size, Trend and Forecast Till 2027
Platform chemicals are building blocks that can be converted to a wide range of materials or chemicals. They can be either bio-based or petroleum-based. Basic solvents, acids, and starting material for polymers. Acetic acid, ethylene, methanol, polypropylene, toluene, benzene, and ethanol are some of the commonly used petroleum-based chemicals in the industry. However, due to increasing hazardous effect from petroleum chemicals are the reason manufacturers are producing renewable platform chemicals. Furthermore, increasing technological advancements in biotechnology are driving the production of platform chemicals from renewable feedstock. Propionic acid, butanediol, glycerol, sorbitol, succinic acid, and lactic acid are some of the majorly used bio-based platform chemicals used in various industries. Platform chemical finds applications in paints, dyes, agrochemicals, coatings, paints, varnishes, specialty chemicals, and dyes.
