Propylene Glycol (PG) is a multifunctional organic molecule that is produced from petroleum products, mainly propylene oxide. It is used in various industries such as electronic, food, pharmaceutical, cosmetics and fiberglass resins. Bio-Based Propylene Glycol is a product, which is derived renewably and it reduces emission of the greenhouse gases. It has relatively high boiling point and low freezing point. Bio-Based Propylene Glycol offers fruity odor and can be used efficiently in the industries that manufacture perfumes and colognes. It has a broad spectrum of applications such as antifreeze, waste heat recovery, coolants, solar system, etc. Due to soaring concern for environment, industries are finding their way out in the bio-based routes for developing propylene glycol.
The various factors that are driving the growth of the Bio-Based Propylene Glycol market are eco-friendly methods of manufacturing, reduced usage of petrochemical feedstock, and reduced emission of the greenhouse gases. The major restraints for the expansion of the market are high reaction risk during the process of manufacturing and low stability of catalyst.
