Pentane Market Overview

Pentane is a hydrocarbon organic compound that has a gasoline-like odor and is usually burnt as a fuel. Pentane finds numerous industrial applications; for instance, it is used as an ingredient in the production of petroleum. Its primary application is in creating blowing agents, which are in turn used in manufacturing polyesters (foams). Pentane has three isomeric forms, i.e. Isopentane, n-Pentane and Neopentane, which are generally used in blowing agents, electronic cleansing or as chemical solvents.

The growth of the global pentane market can be attributed to the rapid adoption of automobiles across the globe, which in turn is estimated to step-up the adoption of gasoline. Pentane acts as a blending agent in gasoline, which is augmenting the growth of the gasoline market. Further, for polystyrene and polyurethane, pentane behaves as a blowing agent. Increasing disposable income and the inclination towards higher living standards have changed the lifestyle and buying power of the public, resulting in a jump in the sales of electronic appliances, which require polystyrene and polyurethane foam insulation for cooling purpose.

This in turn is increasing the consumption of pentane in the global market. In addition, pentane and its byproducts are used as refrigerants in electronic appliances (fridge and air conditioners), which is another factor contributing towards the growth of the global pentane market.  Therefore, the growth of the electronics industry has a significant impact on the consumption of pentane and is expected to create sizable growth opportunities in the global pentane market over the forecast period.

Among all regions, North America is anticipated to hold a significant share in the pentane market, owing to the widespread presence of the electronics industry and huge demand for blowing agents in polyester applications.  In Asia Pacific, counties such as Japan, South Korea, China, India, and Japan, the demand for pentane is expected to be surplus as a result of the significant presence of electronic manufacturing facilities. Further, the demand for pentane in Europe is likely to subside due to the stringent regulatory scenario; hence, the consumption of pentane could be replaced by propylene glycol methyl ether or propylene glycol methyl ether acetate.

normal pentane in lab flask

n-Pentane is an organic compound with the chemical formula of C5H12. It is the fifth member of alkanes and is often used as a solvent. Pentane is an aliphatic saturated hydrocarbon with stable chemical properties. It does not react with acid and alkali under normal temperature and pressure. Pyrolysis occurs at high temperature above 600 ℃ or in the presence of appropriate catalyst to produce mixtures of propylene, butene, isobutylene, butane and isopropane. The physical properties of n-Pentane, Isopentane and neopentane are not different, and the chemical properties are different due to their structural differences There are two isomers of n-Pentane: Isopentane and neopentane. The term “pentane” usually refers to n-Pentane, that is, its linear isomer. “Normal” generally refers to the straight chain structure, for example, “n-” Pentane is straight chain “ISO” generally refers to a branched chain structure, for example, Isopentane is 2 – methylbutane “New” generally refers to the isomer with two branched chain structures. For example, neopentane is 2,2-dimethylpropane and above are all pentane.

Product Information
 
Pentane is an organic compound with the formula C5H12 — that is, an alkane with five carbon atoms. The term may refer to any of three structural isomers, or to a mixture of them: in the IUPAC nomenclature, however, pentane means exclusively the n-pentane isomer; the other two being called “methylbutane” and “dimethylpropane”. Cyclopentane is not an isomer of pentane. Pentanes are components of some fuels and are employed as specialty solvents in the laboratory. Their properties are very similar to those of butanes and hexanes.
