摘 要：Propylene oxide is a chemical intermediate used in the polyurethane and solvents industry. It is manufactured from raw materials such as propene, isobutene, and oxygen. It is also used in the etherification of wood, purification of organosilicon compound mixtures, and disinfection of crude oil products. In 2015, the global production of propylene oxide was 10.37 million metric tons. We expect the production of propylene oxide to increase during the forecast period owing to rising consumption from polyether polyols and propylene glycols manufacturers, among others.
