Introduction

Propylene oxide (C₃H₆O) is a flammable, colorless and volatile liquid soluble in water and miscible with many organic solvents. It is obtained by the indirect oxidation of propylene (C₃H₆) or the dehydrochlorination of propylene chlorohydrin. As it has corrosion resistance properties, sales of C₃H₆O are rising worldwide.

Market Trends/Drivers

C₃H₆O prevents insect infestations and bacterial contamination in packaged food products, such as nuts, spices, starch, gums, and cocoa. As a result, it is widely employed in the food and beverage (F&B) industry across the globe. It also finds extensive applications in producing adhesives, sealants, surfactants, coatings, foams, thermal insulators and flooring materials. Moreover, it is utilized as an intermediate for producing propylene glycol (C₃H₈O₂), which is further used to manufacture unsaturated polyester resins, vaporizers, and humectants in hand sanitizers.
