Polyoxytetramethylene (PTMG) Market 2017 Driver, Trends, Applications and Business Strategy Forecast to 2022

The global polyoxytetramethylene (PTMG) market is expected to grow at an exponential CAGR in the years to come. A chemical compound appearing as a white solid that has the ability to dissolve to a lucid, colorless, and thick liquid in the room temperature. It is also known by various names as poly (tetramethylene ether) glycol, Polytetrahydrofuran, as well as poly (tetramethylene oxide). The compound is generally formed with the help of the catalyzed polymerization process of tetrahydrofuran (THF).

The most striking aspects that are attached with it may entail augmented resiliency, robust resistance to hydrolysis and fungus, enhanced flexibility at reduced temperatures, low thickness, reduced noise features, and lowered heat buildup. All these features together make the compound most favorable for a wide range of applications such as automotive hoses and gaskets, forklift tires, roller skate wheels, industrial belts, medical prostheses, catheters, medical devices, tank and pipe lines, as well as athletic shoes.



It has proven quite beneficial in the manufacturing of polyurethane elastomers, co polyester-ether elastomers, urethane adhesives, sealants, surface coatings, as well as spandex (polyurethane) fibers. Moreover, it is employed in the production of artificial leather. The polymer is also considered a base or raw material for other compounds ranging from polyetheramide, cast polyurethane elastomers, thermoplastic polyurethane, to thermoplastic polyesters that are extensively deployed in the helms and wheels of roller skates. It has been observed that the product is gaining huge demand across the globe due to mounting applications across various sectors.


The factors that are playing a significant role in raising the share of the market may include technological advancements, rise in the industrialization, rising applications across various sectors, mounting demands, rise in the awareness among the end users, existence of significant players, and augmented economic growth.
