Acetone is an aromatic organic bulk chemical compound, co-produced with phenol. The major end-use applications include Bis-phenol A (BPA), Methyl methacrylate (MMA), Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK), Solvents, and other chemical uses. The European Acetone market is primarily driven by its use as solvents, accounting for around 1/3rd of the regional demand. Bis-phenol A is another key application of acetone.
The regional BPA demand is mainly driven by polycarbonate resins, which are used in automotive, building & construction, consumer electronics, home appliances, optical media and other niche applications. In terms of consumption, the regional acetone demand witnessed a decline in 2019, owing to weakening demand in key European countries, with further declines estimated in 2020 owing to the global Covid-19 pandemic and economic slowdown. Prismane Consulting forecasts flat growth in the European Acetone throughout the long-term forecast.
Determining the impacts of the global Covid-19 pandemic remains a key question across different industry verticals. The economic down-turn had a severe impact on the global and European petrochemicals industry; though, the industry witnessed declines during 2008-09, it again bounced back in 2010. However, the global pandemic has now altered the global industry landscape and has impacted the Acetone end-use markets.
In Prismane Consulting’s Europe Acetone strategy report, we have analyzed the historic and current market situation of Acetone across several applications and sub-applications.
