Natural oil polyols are also called bio polyols; it is derived from vegetable oils. These polyols are produced by transesterification of natural oils such as palm oil, soy oil, sunflower oil, castor oil, peanut oil, canola oil, mustard oil, olive oil, tallow, and lard. In addition, the commercially available natural polyol, such as castor oil is manufactured directly from vegetable or plant oil. The product holds an impressive eco- friendly quotient due to its bio-based and non-polluting raw materials. The natural oil polyols find their use in a wide range of applications such as polyurethane foams, metallic coatings, cushioning, feedstocks, and bakery products.
The increasing demand for natural oil polyols from polyurethane foams and other applications to drive market growth. The product is utilized in the formulations of several polyurethane materials which include foams with the cell structure and properties required for their typical applications. Also, vegetable oils including palm and rapeseed oils were highly adopted as a key ingredient for preparing flexible polyurethane foams. Moreover, the rising demand for natural oil polyols from the construction and automotive industries will boost product consumption. Hence, these factors will fuel market growth during the review period.
However, the availability of substitutes including animal oil polyols is restricting the product adoption in various applications. Hence, this is anticipated to hamper the market growth.
