Global Bisphenol-A Market Overview 2016-2022 - Market is Projected to Reach US$22.5 Billion by 2022, Up from $15.6 Billion in 2016 - Research and Markets

DUBLIN, July 26, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Bisphenol-A - A Global Market Overview" report to their offering.

Global market for Bisphenol-A applications analyzed in this study include Epoxy Resins, Polycarbonates and Other Applications.

In terms of value, global demand for Bisphenol-A is likely to register a faster CAGR of 5.4% over the same period and reach a projected US$22.5 billion by 2022 from an estimated US$15.6 billion in 2015 and a forecast US$16.4 billion in 2016.

The global markets for the above mentioned application areas are analyzed in terms of both in metric tons and USD. Global volume consumption of Bisphenol-A, estimated at 7.7 million metric tons in 2015 and forecast to be 8 million metric tons in 2016, is projected to reach 10.6 million metric tons by 2022 at a CAGR of 4.8% between 2016 and 2022.

Global consumption of bisphenol-A (BPA) is being spurred by a stable growth in demand from emerging markets, with China, India, Mexico and Russia expected to witness above average growth prospects. Coupled with this trend is a growing demand for the compound in its two major application areas, viz., epoxy resins and polycarbonates. Prospects for future demand for BPA are likely to be bolstered by the growing utilization of this chemical in rotor blade composites that find application in windmills. Wind energy has been garnering widespread global attention as an eco-friendly option in the energy mix and requires the use of strong and resilient wind turbine rotor blades that are reinforced using epoxy resins.
