A new research report released by U.S.-based market intelligence firm Transparency Market Research analyzes the linear alkyl benzene market quantitatively and estimates that it will grow upon its 2011 market value of US$6,149 million at a steady CAGR of 4.3% from 2012 to 2018. The report is titled ‘Linear Alkyl Benzene Market for - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends And Forecast, 2012 - 2018’, and provides detailed analysis of the global linear alkyl benzene market as well as insightful forecasts about the upcoming state of the market in terms of revenue and volume. According to volume, the global alkyl benzene market totaled 3,391.6 kilotons in 2011.

Linear alkyl benzene is an important component in the production of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, which is used to produce detergents. Production of linear alkylbenzene sulfonates takes up a major share of the global linear alkyl benzene market. The applications of linear alkylbenzenene sulfonate are further divided into five subcategories: heavy-duty laundry liquids, light-duty dishwashing liquids, laundry powders, industrial cleaners, and other generic household cleaners.

The first category, heavy-duty laundry liquids, is widely prevalent, and thus demands the highest share of the global linear alkyl benzene market. Due to growing development and affluence in large tracts of the world, household liquids are expected to be the fastest growing category in the linear alkyl benzene market.

Apart from the manufacture of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate, linear alkyl benzene is also used in other applications such as ink solvents, herbicides, electric cable oil, paints, etc., on a smaller scale.The rising demand for cleaners is the major driver of the linear alkyl benzene market. Increasing environmental regulations will help the market, since linear alkyl benzene is easily biodegradable and is not a serious health threat. Due to this, the category of industrial cleaners is also expected to enjoy a high CAGR during the report’s forecast period.

The global linear alkyl benzene market is divided into five regional submarkets: North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Rest of World. The growing economies of countries such as China and India made Asia Pacific the dominant region in the 2011 market. Similar growth in Latin American countries such as Brazil is expected to make Asia Pacific and Latin America the fastest growing regional submarkets for linear alkyl benzene, with the former shading the latter.


The linear alkyl benzene market is fragmented, due to the multitude of regional manufacturers. However, dominant multinational corporations accounted for about 50% of the 2011 market; Sasol, based in South Africa, is the global leader with a market share of 9%. The report also profiles other major players in the linear alkyl benzene market, such as Huntsman Performance Products, Jin Tung Petrochemicals, CEPSA Quimica, Chevron Phillips Chemical Industry, etc. The common aim of linear alkyl benzene manufacturers so far has been to expand into the developing Asia Pacific and Latin American markets.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
