1, 3-Propanediol (1, 3-PDO) is a bifunctional organic compound that can be utilized for several synthesis reactions as a monomer for the polycondensations to manufacture polyethers, polyesters, and polyurethanes. The growing number of applications of polyester across several industries is likely to boost the demand for 1, 3-PDO. The growth of the global personal care and cosmetics industry is also fueling the global 1, 3-PDO market growth. Lack of awareness of environment-friendly products is a key challenge for the global market. Production of bio-based 1, 3-PDO from renewable raw materials, such as corn glucose, is a major trend in the global market.
