Dublin, May 14, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Global Acrylonitrile Market 2019-2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The acrylonitrile market will register a CAGR of over 3% by 2023.
High demand for acrylonitrile from APAC is a major growth factor for the global acrylonitrile market. The demand of acrylonitrile in the region is expected to increase during the forecast period due to the extensive manufacturing of acrylic fibers and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). Rapid growth in the construction, automotive, and consumer goods industries in China, India, Japan is propelling the growth of the regional acrylonitrile market.
Market Overview
Rising demand for acrylonitrile for manufacturing ABS
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)is a terpolymer that is commercially manufactured by the polymerization of acrylonitrile, butadiene and styrene monomers. The increasing production ABS production will drive the demand for acrylonitrile during the forecast period.
Stringent regulations and health hazards caused by acrylonitrile
Acrylonitrile is recognized as a hazardous compound by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). ECHA classifies acrylonitrile as a toxic chemicals for humans. The International Agency of Research on Cancer has declared acrylonitrile as a possible human carcinogen which will hinder the market growth.
Competitive Landscape
The market appears to be highly fragmented and with the presence of several companies including LUKOIL and Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd the competitive environment is quite intense. Factors such as the rising demand for acrylonitrile for manufacturing ABS and high demand for acrylonitrile from APAC, will provide considerable growth opportunities to acrylonitrile manufactures.
Asahi Kasei Corp., Ascend Performance Materials, DSM, INEOS Group Holdings SA, LUKOIL, and Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd. are some of the major companies covered in this report.
