The global cumene market size is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 4.50% in the forecast period of 2024-2032.
Cumene, also known as isopropyl benzene, is a chemical compound that is produced by the reaction of benzene and propene using an acid catalyst. The production of cumene is based on the Friedel–Crafts alkylation reactions. The organic compound is a colourless, flammable liquid that is insoluble in water and has a gasoline-like odour.
Cumene, is a hydrocarbon, which is a derivative of benzene with an isopropyl group (C₃H₇) attached to it. This structure makes it a part of the aromatic hydrocarbon family. Cumene is typically produced in the petrochemical sector through a process known as alkylation. In this process, benzene is alkylated with propylene in the presence of an acidic catalyst, such as aluminium chloride or zeolite, to produce cumene.
The primary use of cumene is as a feedstock in the production of phenol and acetone. This is achieved through a process called the cumene process, where cumene is oxidised to form cumene hydroperoxide, which is then cleaved (broken down) to yield phenol and acetone.
