1,4-Butanediol is the organic compound with the formula HOCH2CH2CH2CH2OH. It is a colorless viscous liquid. It is one of four stable isomers of butanediol.

Scope of the Report:
This report focuses on the 1,4 Butanediol (BDO) in global market, especially in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, South America, Middle East and Africa. This report categorizes the market based on manufacturers, regions, type and application.
Increasing applications of its derivatives in various industrial processes along with the growing demand for spandex in textiles have been responsible for driving growth in recent years.
Tetrahydrofuran (THF), one of the major derivatives of BDO, is widely utilized in multiple applications such as in the production of polytetramethylether glycols (PTMEG). This is further processed to derive spandex, and as an intermediate in manufacturing natural gas odorants owing to its wide liquid range.
Growing awareness regarding the processing and utility benefits of these, and other BDO derivatives, are responsible for industry expansion. Major multinationals are also shifting their production capabilities towards emerging economies in Asia Pacific, and introducing new technologies, which is anticipated to drive innovation in the near future.
Increasing environmental concerns and depletion of non-renewable resources such as crude oil and natural gas have spurred the development of several innovative, sustainable technologies that utilize bio-based, renewable resources for production. The transference towards sustainable products is also responsible for driving bio-based BDO production and consumption.
The worldwide market for 1,4 Butanediol (BDO) is expected to grow at a CAGR of roughly xx% over the next five years, will reach xx million US$ in 2023, from xx million US$ in 2017, according to a new study.
