Linear Alpha Olefins Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2022-2027

Market Overview:

The global linear alpha olefins market size reached US$ 8.8 Billion in 2021. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 11.7 Billion by 2027, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 4.9% during 2022-2027. Keeping in mind the uncertainties of COVID-19, we are continuously tracking and evaluating the direct as well as the indirect influence of the pandemic on different end use industries. These insights are included in the report as a major market contributor.

Linear alpha olefins (LAOs) are unbranched alkenes or hydrocarbons joined by linear chains and one double bond at the first carbon atom of the chain. They are either produced by the oligomerization of ethylene molecules or by Fischer-Tropsch synthesis, followed by purification. They help enhance the toughness, tear strength, and impact resistance of polymers, making them suitable for being used in the production of toys, grocery bags, and food and beverage containers. They are also used as co-monomers for manufacturing polyethylene, plastic packaging, inks, waxes, cosmetic emollients, color concentrates, high-performing engines, and industrial oils. Besides this, LAOs are tailored to meet individual specifications and provide vast options for new chemical development.
