Latest News- Acrolein Market: Acrylic acid is expected to lead the Application segment during 2025-2029

The Acrolein Market is being driven by Growing plastic and polymer industries

The Acrolein Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 208 million. In the realm of sustainable acrolein production, the catalytic dehydration of glycerol emerges as a promising strategy. This process involves manipulating glycerol's physicochemical properties and optimizing reaction conditions to enhance acrolein yield. Researchers are focused on improving selectivity while maintaining catalyst stability and performance. The intramolecular dehydration of glycerol is the primary route for acrolein production, but intermolecular dehydration may lead to unwanted by-products. Ensuring the former and minimizing the latter is a significant challenge in this field. The catalytic dehydration of glycerol is a burgeoning area of research and technological significance due to its potential to offer a more eco-friendly approach to acrolein production.

Research Analysis Overview

Acrolein, a organic compound derived from petrochemical feedstocks like propylene, is used extensively in various industries. In polyurethane foams and synthetic fibers production, it acts as a building block. Resins, adhesives, coatings, and polymer industries utilize acrolein for polymerization. Water treatment plants employ it as a disinfectant and an intermediate in the catalytic reduction process. Specialty chemical applications include use in emulsifiers and carcinogenic property in glutaraldehyde production. Acrolein, also known as 2-propenal, is produced through catalytic oxidation of propylene. Industries like oil and glycerine also make use of this compound. Biobased glycerol derived from glycerine can be converted into acrolein through catalytic oxidation. Acrolein is also used in the production of methionine, acrylic acid, and other chemicals.
