Middle East and Africa Gamma Butyrolactone Market Dynamics

Drivers

• Growing application of derived chemical products

Chemicals play an important role in every aspect of day-to-day life. Everything around the world consists of chemicals. To manufacture such useful chemicals, raw materials are required. Every chemical has its different raw materials and chemical intermediates. The daily use products such as medicines, food items, cosmetics, personal care products, paints, fuels, electronics and many more are made up of chemical compounds, which are derived from one or more chemical raw materials. Favorable frameworks, an increase in foreign direct investment in developing economies, increased demand from consumers and strong competition among manufacturers of chemicals products are the driving forces behind the market growth of chemical products.

• Application in a wide range of industries

The growing economy, rise in the transportation sector and growth in infrastructure are a few of the crucial variables which have led to the growth of the petroleum industry. Gamma butyrolactone is one of the useful chemicals which is employed as an extractant in the processing of butadiene, aromatic and advanced grease petroleum. Other than the petroleum based industry, gamma butyrolactone is used in agrochemicals industries. Agrochemical products play an important role in increasing agricultural yields. Utilizing agrochemicals improves crop productivity, plant health and controls plant disease. Such agrochemicalselectric vehicles. are classified into herbicides, nematicides, fungicides, pesticides and soil conditioners. The chemical is used to produce organic agrochemicals such as herbicides, nematocides and pesticides. Along with it, gamma butyrolactone serves as a plant growth regulator and stabilizer for pesticides containing phosphorus and chlorohydrocarbons. Thus the high population, increasing food demand and awareness among farmers regarding the benefits of agrochemicals are the factor that leads to the agrochemical industry growth, thus driving the Middle East and Africa gamma butyrolactone market.

Opportunities

• Rise in demand for electric vehicles

Since there is a greater demand for electric vehicles globally, there are more of them on the road today and this trend will only continue. The need for electric vehicles has risen in the last several years due to greater public awareness of the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the high cost of fuel and technological advancements. Electric vehicles available in the market are electric cars, buses, tractors, scooters, bikes, bicycles, personal transporters and many more. Such different types of electric vehicles attract consumers from different work areas, thus increasing demand and sales of electric vehicles.

• Increase in usage of organic agrochemicals

The machine or engines which is installed in the plants or automotive industry are done for a longer duration but are used on a regular basis, due to which the wear and tear of parts are more inside the engine. The seals products which are installed with the machine have to work under different pressure and temperature, which increases the wear and tear of the seals products. Several types of lubricants are used in the machinery, which involve different chemical compositions, which sometimes also affect the composition of sealing products.

Restraints/Challenges

• Serious health effects and safety concerns

Gamma butyrolactone is a well-known chemical having a wide range of applications. The chemical found its application in various industries such as pharmaceuticals, petroleum, agrochemicals, cosmetics and personal care products. It is also used as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals, such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, phenyl butyric acid and DL-methionine. Along with it, the chemical is used as a solvent for cellulose acetate, methyl methacrylate and other polymers.

Recent Developments

• According to the My Chemical Monitoring, the Australian Department of Health's delegate announces the plan to limit the use of gamma butyrolactone in cosmetics and other items
