Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer that is prepared by the polymerization of propylene. Catalyst plays a very important role in the polymerization of propylene to polypropylene. During the manufacturing of polypropylene, a catalyst component is used depending upon the process.

The global polypropylene catalyst market is registering good growth in recent years, owing to the increasing demand for catalysts to produce polypropylene for further use. Polypropylene is used in a wide range of applications such as food packaging, ropes, plastic parts, textiles, laboratory equipment, automotive components, and others.

The gas-phase process is anticipated to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. Gas-phase process produces a very high-quality polypropylene while ensuring minimal residual polypropylene.

The production of polypropylene is increasing to meet the demand from various industries for different applications including packaging of consumer products, automotive products, textiles, housewares, medicines, tubing, and others.

The manufacturers of polypropylene are demanding improved catalysts with better properties for the production of polypropylene. For instance, Sud-Chemie has launched C-Max catalysts for propylene polymerization, which is highly optimized for the manufacturing of polypropylene grades in a variety of process platforms, which enables the manufacturers to produce the entire product range without catalyst change.

Propylene prices are highly dependent on crude oil prices, making them highly volatile, and can also hinder the polypropylene catalyst market growth. Also, the production of propylene is expected to be tighter in the coming years, as very few new projects are commissioned in recent years, which might not be able to meet the increasing demand of the market.

Asia-Pacific is anticipated to register the highest growth during the forecast period in the polypropylene catalyst market, which is mainly derived by the increasing demand from end-user industries which includes automotive, chemical, packaging, optical, and others.

W.R. Grace & Co., Lyondellbasell Industries, Clariant, Lotte Mitsui Chemicals, Japan Polypropylene Corporation, Toho Titanium, INEOS AG, Sumitomo Chemicals, and Süd-Chemie are some of the key player's catalysts for polypropylene production.
