The global Cumene market has reached approximately 15 million tonnes in 2021 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.10% during the forecast period until 2032. According to INEOS Phenol's announcement, it has entered into an agreement to pay $330 million to Mitsui Chemicals, a major Japanese chemical producer, to buy the entire asset base of Mitsui Phenols Singapore Ltd. The company generates revenue of USD 750 million and produces more than 1 million tonnes of goods annually, including 410 thousand tonnes of Cumene.
Cumene is an aromatic hydrocarbon with a chemical formula of C9H12. It consists of a benzene ring with a substitution of an isopropyl group. Cumene is a flammable liquid and a constituent of crude oil. Cumene is synthesized by an alkylation reaction of benzene with propylene in the presence of solid phosphoric acid as the catalyst. Chemical manufacturing industries utilize Cumene to produce wide arrays of solvents and chemicals such as acetone, methylstyrene, phenol, and acetophenone. Crude oil and refined fuels contain Cumene as an ingredient. Cumene is used to make products like composite materials, acrylic films, and laminates, which are widely employed in the industrial, transportation, and healthcare fields. Food-grade Cumene, which is used to make polycarbonate plastic for manufacturing consumer goods like bottles and containers, is also generated from Cumene.
The growing demand for Phenol and Acetone is driving the global Cumene market. In several chemical industries, phenol is employed to create essential chemicals like bisphenol A and Phenolic Resin. Phenol and its compounds are utilized for the manufacture of general-use goods like plastic containers, bottles, kitchenware, and food & beverage storage containers. Acetone is widely used to manufacture Bisphenol-A, Methyl Methacrylate, and Methyl Isobutyl Ketone. Acetone is also a popular solvent for oils, fats, waxes, adhesives, rubber, polymers, lacquers, coatings, and rubber cement. The applications of acetone and phenol are anticipated to swell the global Cumene demand in the forecast period to reach approximately 25 million tonnes by 2032.
Based on demand by region, the Asia Pacific dominates the Cumene market, capturing roughly half of the global Cumene market in 2021. It is anticipated that Asia Pacific will remain the biggest consumer of Cumene in the forecast period as well. On the other hand, Europe stands as the second largest consumer of Cumene. The growing use of cumene-based products due to the expanding building and construction activity in developing nations located in the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to propel the growth of the global Cumene demand. Based on production, Asia Pacific is also taking the lead among all the other areas. In 2021, about 45% of the global Cumene production occurred in this region.
Based on the end-user industry, the global Cumene market is segmented into Phenol, Acetone, and Others. The Phenol Industry is a largest consumer of the Cumene market. The wide usage of phenol and phenol-based compounds in the plastic and polymer industry is anticipated to drive the Cumene market in the forecast period. Furthermore, The Acetone industry is also a prominent consumer of the global Cumene market.
Major players in the production of Global Cumene are Cepsa Corporation, Ineos Group Ltd, Shell Plc, CITGO Petroleum Corporation, Flint Hills Resources, PTT Phenol, Formosa Chemical and Fibre, Sunoco, Kumho P&B Chemicals., Inc., Versalis, Mitsui Phenols Singapore Ltd, and Marathon Petroleum Corporation (MPC).
