Alpha-Methylstyrene Market Statistics 2021- Industry Size, Business Opportunities, Study with COVID-19 Impact, Growth Rate and Forecast till 2027
Overview:
Alpha-methylstyrene (AMS) is an insoluble colorless
liquid with an aromatic odor. AMS is obtained as a by-product in the
manufacturing of cumene-phenol process. To obtain high purity AMS, it undergoes
purification by continuous distillation at reduced pressure to remove phenol,
cumene, and other impurities. It is widely used as a copolymer to synthesize
different monomers such as benzene and acrylates.
On the basis of purity, the global alpha-methylstyrene
market has been bifurcated into <99% and >99%. The <99% segment held
the largest market share in 2017 and is estimated to be the fastest-growing
segment during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increasing usage
of AMS in the production of heat-resistant acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene
(ABS). Moreover, it is the basic raw material of organic compounds used in the
production of paint adhesives and pigments. Additionally, it is used as a
plastic additive.
Based on application, the global alpha-methylstyrene
market has been classified into resin, plasticizers, adhesives, waxes,
coatings, chemical intermediate, finishing agents, and others. The
acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) sub-segment, under the resin segment,
dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the high glass transition
temperatures and high heat distortion of AMS.
Market Segmentation
