DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vxrfwn/global_and_chinese) has announced the addition of the "Global and Chinese 1,4-Butanediol (BDO) Industry Report, 2011-2012" report to their offering.
Due to high technical barriers and limited sources of raw materials, the global BDO production is relatively concentrated, with capacity mainly distributed in Asia, the United States and Europe in 2011, of which, Asia accounted for 56.6%. Worldwide BDO manufacturers mainly refer to BASF, Dairen Chemical Corp., Lyondellbasell, ISP and Shanxi Sanwei Group Co, Ltd., whose aggregate BDO capacity in 2011 shared nearly 60% of the world's total.
Chinese BDO industry has been developed from the introduction of foreign technologies, with rapid capacity growth in 2006-2011, accompanied by a CAGR of 27.6%, resulting in gradually declining foreign dependence. In 2011, China's BDO demand was approximately 430 kilotons, output 370 kilotons, and foreign dependence degree decreased to around 14%. In 2012, about 370 kilotons of BDO capacity in China are scheduled to be put into production successively; with the gradual release of the new capacity, it is expected that China's BDO market in 2013 will see overcapacity.
China's BDO industry features a high degree of concentration.
