Global Butyraldehyde Market

Buthylaldehyde (also called butanal) is a 4-carbon aldehyde species which is used as a building block in downstream processes of organic syntheses to produce other products especially n-butanol, 2-ethylhexanol, 2-Ethylhexanoic acid, trimethylolpropane, and polyvinyl buthylal. Butyraldehyde is used as an intermediate in the manufacturing alcohols, paints & lacquers, plant protection products, pesticides, odorising agents, oil soluble resins and polymers (such as n-butyric acid, methyl amyl ketone). It is also used as an intermediate to make pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, antioxidants, textile auxiliaries, perfumery, flavors and various types of additives used in many industries (fillers, wetting agents, defoaming agents, improvers). N-butyraldehyde is used as a raw material in production of alcohols (mono- and multi-hydroxide), acids, amines and esters. In addition it is vital raw material in the production of films used in safety glass. The largest users of butyraldehyde are companies that make rubber accelerators, synthetic resins, plasticizers, solvents and high molecular weight polymers.
