Furfuryl Alcohol Market: Well-established Foundry Industry in Asia to Delineate Surge in Consumption of Corn-cob Based Furfuryl Alcohol 2018-2028

Furfuryl alcohol (C4H3OCH2OH), also known as 2-furylmethanol or 2-furancarbinol, is an organic compound containing a furan substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. Furfuryl alcohol is made from furfural by means of catalysis with hydrogen. It is colourless or pale yellow in appearance and finds adoption in various applications. As a result, the global market for furfuryl alcohol is expected to witness significant growth in 2018, reaching a market value of US$ 836.2 Mn with a y-o-y growth rate of 4.5% as compared to 2017. Furthermore, the global demand for furfuryl alcohol will also be influenced by the rising utilisation of the chemical in pharmaceutical solvents and wood impregnation.

The strong shift towards the development of bio-based chemicals against the backdrop of volatile petrochemical prices is expected to remain a key driver for the growth of furfuryl alcohol market. Predominantly, over the years, the consumption of furfuryl alcohol in foundry resins has reached an unprecedented level, owing to the physical and chemical properties possessed by furfuryl alcohol. Increasing industrial production, relatively stable economic conditions and consistent growth in automotive sales in various regions such as India, SEAP and China are the factors estimated to drive the growth in the demand for furfuryl alcohol.
