COVID-19 Impact on Cumene Hydroperoxide Market
- The COVID-19 outbreak has hindered the demand for cumene hydroperoxide in several applications. Governments of various countries across the globe enforced lockdown measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus. This resulted in slowdown and even halt in manufacturing operations, thus hampering the demand for cumene hydroperoxide.
- One of the major end-use industries of the cumene hydroperoxide market is the adhesive & sealant industry. Building & construction and packaging industries are major end-users of adhesives and sealants. These industries were majorly hit due to COVID-19 lockdowns. This created a gap in the supply and demand for cumene hydroperoxide, thereby restricting its demand.
- The COVID-19 outbreak directly affected the production and demand for cumene hydroperoxide. Key players operating in the market are located in Asia Pacific and U.S. These regions accounted for large numbers of COVID-19 Infections, leading to long lockdowns. This hampered the supply of cumene hydroperoxide polymers, thus negatively affecting the market.

Key Drivers of Cumene Hydroperoxide Market
- The adhesive and adhesive remover sector is a prominent consumer of hydroperoxide. Expansion of the building & construction sector is estimated to propel the adhesive industry. Furthermore, adhesives are extensively utilized in the packaging industry, which is expanding at a considerable pace due to globalization. Rise in usage of cumene hydroperoxide in the manufacture of cumene hydroperoxide polymer for adhesives is estimated to boost the cumene hydroperoxide market during the forecast period.
- Cumene is used in the production of phenol and acetone, which are further used in the manufacturing of bath, hair, and skin care products. Phenol is also used in skin peels and is present in many sunscreen and lip balms. Acetone is used in nail polishes and their removers. Phenol is also used in plastic manufacturing industries, cosmetic industries, and in the study and extraction of bio-molecules.
Restraints of Cumene Hydroperoxide Market
- Cumene hydroperoxide is hazardous, with acute toxicity. This is likely to hamper the market in the near future. Cumene hydroperoxide can cause irritation to the respiratory system and eyes. It can also affect the central nervous system, causing depression as well as internal bleeding of many organs, in some serious cases. Focus on environmental sustainability has increased in the U.S. and Asia Pacific, which are key regions of the cumene hydroperoxide market. Continuous monitoring of production by regulatory bodies can hamper the cumene hydroperoxide market.
