Crotonaldehyde has the molecular formula CH3CH=CHCHO and is
an organic chemical molecule. 2-Butenal or 3-Methylacrolein are other names for
it. The E- and Z-isomers differ in the relative positions of the methyl and
formyl groups, and the chemical is normally sold as a combination of the two.
Crotonaldehyde is a versatile organic synthesis intermediate. Crotonaldehyde is
an unsaturated aldehyde that is formed via aldol condensation of acetaldehyde.
It is a colourless to pale yellow liquid. Crotonaldehyde is also a highly
reactive and powerful reducing agent with a pungent odour and a lachrymatory
effect. Crotonaldehyde can be used to make a variety of fine compounds,
including sorbic acid and crotonic acid.

Crotonaldehyde is extremely combustible at ambient
temperature and emits poisonous fumes. Crotonaldehyde is found in the natural
emissions of several volcanoes. In limited amounts, it can also be present in
foods. It's a key ingredient in insecticides and surfactants. Crotonaldehyde is
used as a glue-solvent for polyvinylchloride polymers, as well as in the
prevention of pipe leaks. The combination of a double bond and an aldehyde
functional group in crotonaldehyde makes it useful in a range of applications.
Crotonaldehyde is found in a wide range of foods, including soybean and palm
oils. Overexposure to crotonaldehyde, on the other hand, poses a number of
health risks. During the projected period, this could serve as a restraint on
the worldwide crotonaldehyde market.
The most promising markets for crotonaldehyde manufacturers
are likely to be Asia Pacific and North America. According to IBEF, India's
leather sector accounts for roughly 12.93 percent of global leather production
of hides and skins. India exported leather and leather goods worth $4.72
billion between April 2016 and January 2017. The Indian chemicals industry is
projected to be worth over US$ 139 billion. India is the world's seventh
largest producer of chemicals and Asia's third largest producer. The overall
output of key chemicals, including petrochemicals, was 23.9 million tonnes in
2015-2016. Foreign companies such as Akzo Nobel, BASF, ADEKA, Mitsubishi
Chemicals Corporation, Syngenta, DuPont, Henkel, Croda, Wacker Metroark,
DyStar, and Rhodla have invested in the Indian chemicals business. The India
Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF) is a Trust created by the Ministry of Commerce
and Industry, Department of Commerce, in partnership with the Government of
India, with the goal of promoting and raising international awareness of
Indian-made goods.
Crotonaldehyde market expansion is fueled by a wide range of
applications in the chemicals and pharmaceutical industries, particularly in
the Asia Pacific and Middle East regions.
