Furfural Market Value Share and Key Trends 2016-2026

Furfural comes from the Latin word furfur which mean bran. Furfural (C5H4O2) is a clear, colourless or a little yellowish liquid. It is a natural precursor to furan-based chemicals. Furfural has potential to become a major renewable chemical for the production of biochemical and biofuels. Few properties of furfural include corrosive resistance, thermosetting properties and physical resistance, which have led to its around 70% contribution to production of resin. Primarily, furfural is composed of agricultural byproducts such as oat, bran, husks, sawdust and corncobs. Furfural manufacturing activity is based on pentosan containing residues, obtained from the processing of various agricultural or forest products, since no commercial synthetic process is discovered. Furfural market deals in B2B trade where furfural is widely used in industries as a base material for synthesizing a family of derived solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, furfuryl alcohol and in the production of resins for metal coatings and moulded plastic.
