The global butyraldehyde market was worth US$ 200 Million in the year 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 360 Million by the year 2032 at a CAGR of 6% between 2022 and 2032.
Butyraldehyde, often known as “Butanal,” seems to be a colorless liquid with an unpleasant odor. Although it is mostly soluble in organic solvents, water does not completely dissolve it. The oxy procedure is a typical way to make butyraldehyde. Here, hydrogen, propylene, and carbon monoxide interact. Acting as a catalyst is rhodium.
In reality, butyraldehyde is used as a raw material to make 2-ethylhexanol, n-butanol, polyvinyl butyral, and trimethylolpropane. An intermediate can also be used in the chemical industry. Additionally, it can be found in plasticizers, synthetic resins, perfumes, pesticides, crop protection products, and pharmaceuticals.
Butyraldehyde is mostly used in producing n-butanol. This could, in turn, be used in the form of solvent in the coatings vertical and also for manufacturing pyroxylin plastics, pharmaceuticals, and polymers. This demand is expected to increase on a sizable note going forward. For example – as per the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers, around 68K tons of butanol get consumed in India in a year to form butyl acrylate. It is, in turn, used for forming acrylic paint. The other applications include additives in polishes and cleaners, solvent for dyes, additives in gasoline, and solvent in textile industry.

2-ethyl hexanol is another product derived from butyraldehyde. It’s used to produce plasticizers, which are used to derive PVC (polyvinyl chloride). The players like Formosa Plastics, Westlake Chemical, Shin-Etsu are emphasizing on expansion of manufacturing capacity, which would certainly ask for 2-ethyl hexanol. On these grounds, Shintech, in the year 2018, did announce expanding the PVC output at Louisiana complex by more than 50% to over 11 Million mt per year, that too, along with the other upstream PVC expansions by 2020 and 2021. Though there were disruptions due to Covid-19, normalcy has been restored now. Butyraldehyde is also used for producing extractants that are used in the form of solvents in dye and coating vertical. Methacrylate esters and acrylate are also produced from butyraldehyde. Along these lines, the Ministry of Chemicals and Fertilizers has confirmed that more than 100K tons of 2-ethyl hexanol gets consumed by India per year.
N-butyraldehyde gets used as raw material to produce alcohols (multi- and mono-hydroxide), esters, amines, and acids. It is also imperative in producing films that are used in the safety glass.
At the same time, the fact that butyraldehye, on direct exposure to the atmosphere, may cause environmental hazards can’t be ignored.
Future Market Insights has walked through these facets with future perspectives in its latest market study entitled ‘Butyraldehyde Market’. Its team of analysts and consultants is there to execute through its 360-degree approach in primary, secondary, and tertiary modes of research.
