簡介目錄

2021年己烷市場規模為20.06億美元。

己烷是一種無色無味的烴類化合物,沸點低,具有優良的溶劑性能,因此主要用作各行業的溶劑。 己烷是通過石油或天然氣的分餾獲得的,被歸類為揮發性有機化合物 (VOC)。 它也常用作提取植物油和生產各種工業化學品(如粘合劑、密封劑和橡膠)的溶劑,並可用於清潔和脫脂應用。 新己烷、異己烷、正己烷是市場上最常用的己烷。 天然氣和生物基原料等新技術和創新技術的開發以及更高效的己烷生產工藝正在推動市場增長。 此外,對植物油、黏合劑、密封劑、橡膠、塑料和生物燃料的需求不斷增加預計將刺激預測期內己烷市場的擴張。

市場促進因素

生物燃料需求不斷增加

隨著對可再生能源的日益關注和可持續能源意識的廣泛普及,對生物能源和生物燃料的需求不斷增加。 由於己烷用於生產生物柴油和生物乙醇等生物燃料,預計對己烷的需求將會增加。 國際能源署(IEA)宣布,2021年至2022年國際生物燃料需求將增長6%。 此外,2020年全球生物柴油產量約為438.08億升,2022年將增至474.2億升。 此外,包括美國在內的世界許多國家政府都制定了有利的政策和激勵措施來促進生物燃料的使用,包括強制規定、稅收減免和補貼等,以鼓勵生物燃料的生產和消費。生物燃料的需求不斷增加,為己烷市場擴張創造了機會。

餐館和食品店數量增加。

由於配送便利和食品質量的提高,餐館和小吃攤的食品消費量增加,預計將對己烷食用油和植物油生產產生大量需求。 不斷增長的勞動力和繁忙的工作輪班正在增加各種餐館和食品企業的利潤,並吸引更多新進入者進入餐飲服務行業。 例如,印度國家餐館協會預測,2023 年印度將新增 5,000 家餐館。 此外,美國國家餐飲協會預計,到2022年,美國餐飲業規模將達到8980億美元。 此外,食品配送應用程序的出現將促進各種食品店的食品服務消費。 例如,NRA 的餐飲業報告顯示,在美國,大約 54% 的成年人和 72% 的千禧一代更喜歡從提供外賣或送貨服務的餐廳購買食物。 因此,由於餐館和食品服務行業消費的增加,食品服務行業的顯著增長是推動己烷市場發展的關鍵因素。

己烷對人類和環境的負面影響仍然是一個主要問題。

如果處理不當,己烷可能危害人體健康。 接觸己烷會導致急性和慢性健康影響。 短期接觸高濃度己烷蒸氣會導致頭暈、頭痛和嘔吐。 在嚴重的情況下,接觸高濃度的己烷蒸氣會導致意識喪失、呼吸衰竭,甚至死亡。 己烷與空氣中的氮氧化物和其他化合物發生反應,形成地面臭氧,可能導致呼吸系統問題。

此外,長期接觸己烷會損害神經系統,引起手腳麻木、無力等症狀,並可導致不可逆的周圍神經病變。 長期接觸己烷也會引起皮膚刺激和皮炎。 此外,己烷被歸類為揮發性有機化合物,並被認為是空氣污染物。 因此,與己烷相關的危險限制了其消耗。

按等級劃分,食品級己烷預計將佔據己烷市場的大部分。

食品級己烷是一種經過特殊加工和純化的己烷,以滿足食品行業的嚴格使用標準。 食用油是從大豆、玉米、油菜等各種種子和穀物中提取的,用作生產食用油和人造黃油的溶劑。 它還用於加工食品,如脫咖啡因咖啡和製造某些食品添加劑。 此外,食品加工中食品級己烷的使用受到 FDA 的監管和監控,以滿足嚴格的安全標準。 因此,食品和飲料製造和服務業的擴張預計將在預測期內推動食品級己烷的使用。 例如,Chennai Petroleum Corporation Ltd. 報告稱,其食品級己烷產量將從 2020 年的 19,700 噸增至 2021 年的 22,500 噸。

預計亞太地區將在預測期內佔據己烷市場的主要份額。

建築、汽車和包裝行業對粘合劑和密封劑的需求不斷增加,預計將推動該地區的己烷市場,因為己烷被用作製造粘合劑和密封劑的溶劑。 此外,這些行業對橡膠和塑料的需求不斷增加,對己烷作為工業溶劑的需求也很高。

The hexane market was valued at US$2.006 billion in 2021.

Hexane is a colorless and odorless hydrocarbon chemical compound primarily used as a solvent in various industries due to its low boiling point and excellent solvent properties. Hexane is obtained from the fractional distillation of petroleum or natural gas and is classified as a volatile organic compound (VOC). In addition, it is commonly used as a solvent in the extraction of vegetable oils and the production of various industrial chemicals, such as adhesives, sealants, and rubber, and assists in cleaning and degreasing applications. Neohexane, isohexane, and n-hexane are the most commonly consumed types of hexane in the market. The development of new and innovative technologies, such as natural gas and bio-based feedstocks, and more efficient production processes for manufacturing hexane are driving market growth. Further, the growing demand for vegetable oils, adhesives, sealants, rubber, plastics, and biofuels is expected to stimulate the expansion of the hexane market over the forecast period.

Market Drivers

The rising demand for biofuels

The spreading awareness about sustainable energy due to the increasing focus on renewable energy is driving the demand for bioenergy and biofuels, which is expected to augment the demand for hexane since it is used in the production of biofuels, such as biodiesel and bioethanol. The International Energy Agency stated that international biofuel demand will increase by 6% from 2021 to 2022. Further, biodiesel production around the world aggregated approximately 43,808 million liters in 2020 and increased to 47,420 million liters in 2022. Additionally, the introduction of favorable policies and incentives by many governments around the world, such as the US, to promote the use of biofuels by including mandates, tax incentives, and subsidies to encourage the production and consumption of biofuels is increasing the demand for biofuels which is creating an opportunity for the expansion of the hexane market.

The growing number of restaurants and food outlets.

The growth in consumption of food generated by restaurants and food stalls fueled by the delivery convenience and the development in food quality is expected to create a high demand for hexane to manufacture edible and vegetable oils as these stores and food outlets will increase the demand for edible oils due to their increased cooking activities. The rise in the working population and heavy work shifts is increasing the profits of various restaurants and food stores, further attracting new entrants in the restaurant service sector. For instance, the National Restaurant Association of India projected that India would be receiving 5,000 new restaurant additions in 2023. In addition, the National Restaurant Association of the US estimated that the food service industry in the country will reach US$898 billion by 2022. Further, the emergence of food delivery applications promotes the consumption of food services from different food outlets. For instance, the Restaurant Industry Report by NRA revealed that approximately 54% of adults and 72% of the millennials in the US prefer to buy food from restaurants with takeout and delivery options. Therefore, the substantial growth in the food-service sector driven by the rise in restaurant and food outlets' consumption is a significant factor promoting the development of the hexane market.

The negative impact of hexane on humans and the environment remains a significant challenge.

Hexane can be hazardous to human health if not handled properly. Exposure to hexane can cause both acute and chronic health effects. Short-term exposure to high concentrations of hexane vapor can cause dizziness, headache, and vomiting. In severe cases, exposure to high levels of hexane vapor can lead to loss of consciousness, respiratory failure, and even death. Hexane can react with nitrogen oxides and other compounds in the air to form ground-level ozone, leading to respiratory problems.

Further, long-term exposure to hexane can cause damage to the nervous system, resulting in symptoms such as numbness and weakness in the arms and legs, leading to irreversible peripheral neuropathy. Chronic exposure to hexane can also cause skin irritation and dermatitis. In addition, hexane is classified as a volatile organic compound and is recognized as an air pollutant. Therefore, the hazard associated with hexane is restricting its consumption.

Product Offerings:

  • Hexane (SBP 65/70) Solvent by Royal Dutch Shell PLC - Royal Dutch Shell PLC is a UK-based company operating in the gas and oil sector that manufactures hexane solvent as part of its product range of SBP aliphatic hydrocarbon solvents by Shell Chemicals. The hexane solvent manufactured by the company can be used across a wide range of applications that require drying or evaporation performance.
  • Exxsol Hexane by Exxon Mobil Corporation - Exxon Mobil Corporation is a US-based oil and gas company that manufactures Exxsol hexane products comprising n-hexane, cyclohexane, and paraffin. It is a polymer-grade hexane product produced under its dearomatized fluid product line to be applied for different extraction activities.

By grade, the food-grade hexane sector is expected to hold a major portion of the hexane market.

Food-grade hexane is a type of hexane that is specifically processed and purified to meet strict standards for use in the food industry. It is used as a solvent to extract edible oils from various seeds and grains, such as soybeans, corn, and canola, to produce cooking oils and margarine. It is also used in the processing of food products, such as decaffeinated coffee, and the production of certain food additives. In addition, the use of food-grade hexane in food processing is regulated and monitored by the FDA to ensure that it meets strict safety standards. Therefore, the expansion of the food and beverage production and service sector is expected to promote the use of food-grade hexane over the forecast period. For instance, Chennai Petroleum Corporation Ltd. reported that its food-grade hexane production of 19,700 tons in 2020 to 22,500 tons in 2021.

Asia Pacific region is anticipated to hold a major share of the hexane market over the forecast period.

The increase in demand for adhesives and sealants across the construction, automotive, and packaging industries fueled by their respective expansions is anticipated to drive the hexane market in the region as hexane is used as a solvent in producing adhesives and sealants. Further, the rising demand for rubber and plastic from these industries to assist in their operations is creating a high demand for hexane as an industrial solvent.
