Linear Alkyl benzene, a chemical intermediate having a market size of around $180.33 million in 2013 globally and is constantly growing.

Chemical intermediate is an essential element for the production of basic everyday requirements such as textiles, soaps, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other plastics. These intermediate chemicals exist in all forms, for example- Caustic Soda is a solid , Ethylene Dichloride is a Solvent, and Vinyl Chloride Monomer is in Gaseous state.

KEY INSIGHTS<br />

Dem<strong>and</strong> <strong>in</strong> pharmaceutical <strong>and</strong> petro<strong>chemical</strong> <strong>in</strong>dustry <strong>is</strong> the major key driver for <strong>chemical</strong><br />

<strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong>.<br />

BASF has forethought to <strong>in</strong>crease the production <strong>of</strong> 1,4-butanediol (BDO) <strong>chemical</strong><br />

<strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> by 10% at its Ge<strong>is</strong>mar manufactur<strong>in</strong>g facility <strong>in</strong> Lou<strong>is</strong>iana, US.<br />

Among whole <strong>chemical</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> <strong>market</strong>, lactic acid <strong>and</strong> mono-ethylene glycol are the major<br />

<strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> which accounts 40% share <strong>of</strong> the global <strong>chemical</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> capacity <strong>and</strong> <strong>is</strong><br />

equivalent to approx. 2.94 <strong>million</strong> metric tons.<br />

Intermediates <strong>and</strong> polymers are expected to dom<strong>in</strong>ate the <strong>chemical</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> <strong>market</strong> by 2018.<br />

Production <strong>of</strong> <strong>chemical</strong> <strong><strong>in</strong>termediate</strong> between 2014 <strong>and</strong> 2018 <strong>is</strong> expected to yield 11% CAGR.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY<br />

The quantitative <strong>and</strong> qualitative data collected for the global Chemical Intermediates report <strong>is</strong> from a<br />

comb<strong>in</strong>ation <strong>of</strong> secondary <strong>and</strong> primary sources. Research <strong>in</strong>terviews were conducted with executives<br />

<strong>and</strong>/or mangers <strong>in</strong> the key product manufacturers <strong>and</strong> related organizations. These Key Op<strong>in</strong>ion<br />

Leaders (KOLs) were then provided a questionnaire to gather quantitative <strong>and</strong> qualitative <strong>in</strong>puts on<br />

their operations, performance, strategies <strong>and</strong> views on the overall <strong>market</strong>, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g key<br />

developments <strong>and</strong> trends. Data from <strong>in</strong>terviews <strong>is</strong> consolidated, checked for cons<strong>is</strong>tency <strong>and</strong><br />

accuracy, <strong>and</strong> the f<strong>in</strong>al <strong>market</strong> numbers are aga<strong>in</strong> validated by experts. The global Chemical<br />

Intermediates was split by grades <strong>of</strong> polycarbonate res<strong>in</strong>s, applications <strong>and</strong> geography based on<br />

different factors like primary <strong>and</strong> secondary sources, underst<strong>and</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> the number <strong>of</strong> companies<br />

operat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> each segment <strong>and</strong> also KOL <strong>in</strong>sights.<br />

We have used various secondary sources such as directories, articles, white papers, newsletters,<br />

annual reports <strong>and</strong> paid databases such as OneSource, Hoovers <strong>and</strong> Factiva to identify <strong>and</strong> collect<br />

<strong>in</strong>formation for extensive commercial study <strong>of</strong> the global Chemical Intermediates.<br />

The approach towards f<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>formation regard<strong>in</strong>g the <strong>market</strong> <strong>and</strong> forecast<strong>in</strong>g has been quite<br />

extensive. The key players <strong>in</strong> the <strong>market</strong> <strong>and</strong> its value cha<strong>in</strong> were identified through secondary<br />

research <strong>and</strong> their <strong>market</strong> op<strong>in</strong>ions were also gathered <strong>in</strong> a similar way through telephonic <strong>in</strong>terviews<br />

<strong>and</strong> questionnaires. Interviews with key op<strong>in</strong>ion leaders such as managers <strong>and</strong> <strong>market</strong><strong>in</strong>g personnel<br />

were used extensively <strong>in</strong> underst<strong>and</strong><strong>in</strong>g the need <strong>and</strong> emergence <strong>of</strong> polycarbonate res<strong>in</strong> <strong>market</strong>.<br />

We also have extensive database <strong>of</strong> contacts which were used to conduct primary <strong>in</strong>terviews <strong>and</strong><br />

also to get their <strong>in</strong>puts us<strong>in</strong>g questionnaires.
