Market Research Reports incorporated a definite business overview and
investigation inclines on "Bio-Based Polyurethane Market".
This report likewise incorporates more illumination about fundamental
review of the business including definitions, requisitions and
worldwide business sector industry structure.
Polyurethanes
are used in a wide range of industrial applications due to their
chemical versatility, high performance and low cost. They find use in
building and construction, consumer products, furniture and fixtures,
transportation and in industrial applications. Polyurethane is
traditionally a downstream derivative of crude oil, rendering it
susceptible to the crude oil market fluctuations. Moreover in this
age of the consumers, and the global inclination towards green
products and sustainable development, bio based alternative for crude
oil is the need of the day.

Polyurethane manufacturers are
looking for alternatives so as to reduce carbon footprint, and at the
same time positively impact the product quality and economics of
production. Thermoplastic polyurethane manufacturers in particular
are more inclined towards adopting bio based alternatives and
increase the bio based content in their product by using polyester
polyols made from natural and renewable raw materials. The main
demand for bio based polyurethane is derived from application
segments such as automotive, footwear and apparel. Uses in
applications such as electronics, carpets, and furniture among others
are also gaining momentum.
Adipic acid, which is
petroleum based product, and some other di-acids are the conventional
raw materials for manufacturing polyurethanes. However, natural oil
polyols (NOP) or biopolyols, which are derived from vegetable oils by
different methods, are used in the production of bio based
polyurethane. The most common sources of natural oil polyols are
castor oil, soy oil, peanut oil and canola oil. Castor oil accounts
for the majority of natural oil polyol as it contains a ready
hydroxyl group unlike the others, where hydroxyl group needs to be
introduced by prior processes. Natural oil polyols have similar
origins and applications but the materials are different depending on
their manufacturing process. Apart from these bio based succinic acid
and 1,4 butanediol can be combined with the required isocyanates to
produce polyurethanes with upto 70% bio content.

One of the major factors
driving this market is the government regulations regarding carbon
foot print control in the developed economies of North America and
Europe. In order to meet manufacturing obligations set up by the
Kyoto Protocol, that is to reduce carbon emission so as to negate
future climate damage, adapting to bio alternative from petroleum in
the way forward for most manufacturers. Moreover research suggests
that the physical attributes of bio based polyurethanes is strikingly
similar to the traditional polyurethane manufactured from crude oil.
Moreover, the modern customer prefers bio based green products to
traditional products obtained from petroleum. Green product status
has become the USP for products and brands.
Application of bio based
polyurethanes in the insulation industry is a major opportunity for
the market. Polyurethane foams are extensively used in home
insulation and building insulation in the US and Europe. Bio based
polyurethane has the potential to capture the insulation market.
Polyurethanes market suffers from the regular price fluctuations in
the global crude oil market, as it is directly related to the
product. The volatile crude oil market is a restraint for traditional
polyurethanes as it affects the pricing and market competitiveness
compared to other insulation materials such as fiber glass and
mineral-wool. Insulation materials manufactured from bio based
polyurethanes will not be affected by the global price fluctuations
and is a better alternative both financially and environmentally for
manufacturers and consumers alike.
Some of the players in the bio
based polyurethanes market are SNP, Inc.,Cargill, Bio Amber, Inc, and
Myriant Technologies among many others.
