The global butanol market is forecast to see a pronounced recovery in 2021. The increased demand for butyl acetate and butyl acrylate, which together comprise over half of the butanol consumption, emerges as a key butanol market driver amid the current construction boom in Asia, the U.S., Russia and Europe. The use of butanol as an alternative fuel may also accelerate the market expansion.
