What Is Chlorooctane And Market Analysis
Chlorooctane Introduction
Chlorooctane, also known as octyl chloride, is a liquid base chemical formed by mixing n-octanol and hydrogen chloride. Chlorooctane is a colorless, clear, flammable liquid belonging to the organic halogen compounds family. It is difficult/hard to dissolve in water, but can be mixed with alcohol and ether. Chlorooctane is on the special health hazard substance list because it is flammable and gives off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases) in a fire.
It is used as a solvent, as a medicine to control worms, for organometallic compound synthesis, and also to produce other chemicals. Chlorooctane is also used as an alkylating agent in organosynthesis, organometallic compound manufacturing, and as a solvent. There are various HPLC grade of chlorooctane that are available in market such as HP502-1LT-EA, HP502-1LT-CS, HP502-4LT-EA, HP502-4LT-CS, etc.
Chlorooctane Market
• Dynamics
Globally, the chlorooctane market is mainly influenced by its demand and availability in various regions. The consumption of chlorooctane is more in pharmaceutical industries as it is mixed with other chemicals in order to produce various medicines. China, being a major producer and consumer of chlorooctane, immensely affects the market dynamics of the global chlorooctane market. Nowadays, many new methods for the synthesis of chlorooctane are being developed to make it pollution-free, since when chlorooctane reacts with NaCn in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst (PTC), the reaction becomes faster without any anhydrous condition from an external source.
Some PTCs are Aliquat 336: methyltrioctyl ammonium chloride, Benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride or Ammonium bromide, and benzyl triphenylphosphonium iodide. Due to the strict requirements of the productive technology of 1-chlorobutane, the production is not able to advance and grow in various regions. However, since the demand downstream is increasing, the output of 1-chlorobutane is expected to grow stably in the next few years.
• Regional Outlook
China, the U.S., Europe, Southeast Asia, and India are regions that majorly uses chlorooctane in various industry applications such as pharmaceuticals, pesticides, intermediates, etc., Market is projected to be driven by increasing demand from China, with significant use of chlorooctane in pharmaceutical and chemical sector, while demand will be robust in India and Southeast Asian countries too.
