Butyl Acrylate Market to Witness High Usage in Coatings, Adhesives and Textiles Industry 2017-2021

Global Butyl Acrylate Market is segmented on the basis of product, application, and geography. Butyl acrylate (butyl-A) is a clear colorless liquid with a sharp characteristic fruity odor. Its molecular formula is C7H12O2 and molecular weight 128.171 g/mol. It is used in manufacturing verticals such as paints, coatings, fuel, textiles, adhesives, plastic, and caulk. Butyl acrylate is obtained out of several reactions such as acetylene, carbon monoxide, 1-butyl alcohol; nickel carbonyl, and hydrochloric acid. Its homopolymer glass transition temperature is 54ºC (65ºF).
Butyl acrylate is used in the creation of homopolymers and co-polymers like acrylic acid and its esters, salts, amides, acrylonitrile, methacrylates, maleates, vinyl chloride, vinyl acetate, styrene, vinylidene chloride, unsaturated polyesters, drying oils, and butadiene. It is also useful for chemical syntheses, as it willingly undergoes addition reactions with a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds.

Butyl acrylate is prepared from ester grade acrylic acid (AA) and an excess of butanol in a reactor bed at an elevated temperature. It is a clear, flammable, colorless liquid, with a sharp, fragrant, and characteristic odour. It is partially soluble in water and completely soluble in ethers, alcohols, and most organic solvents. Butyl acrylate is used to prepare poly (butyl acrylate) particles, amphiphilic charged diblock copolymers poly (butyl acrylate) and poly (butyl acrylate-b-acrylic acid) block copolymer.
Key players operating in the butyl acrylate consumption industry are Arkema, Basf, Dow, Hexion, Sibur, DuPont, Exxon, Dow Chemical Company, Lucobit AG and Repsol S.A.
Based on product, the butyl acrylate consumption market is classified as 1i-butyl acrylate, 2n-butyl acrylate, and 3t-butyl acrylate. Based on application, the butyl acrylate consumption market is classified as coatings, adhesives, plastics, textiles, and so on. Based on geography, the butyl acrylate consumption market is classified as Asia Pacific, Europe, Latin America, Middle East & Africa and North America.
Asia Pacific holds the largest share in the butyl acrylate market owing to rising demand in countries such as India, China, and Japan. Also, Middle East & Africa will witness major growth owing to the large crude oil reserves. Growing innovations in petrochemical applications mostly in Saudi Arabia and the other crude oil producing countries will drive the market growth in this region.
