Alpha olefins are organic compounds that have their major application as feedstock in various end-use industries which utilize petrochemicals to carry out various production processes. Market Research Future (MRFR) has published a report asserting that the global alpha olefins market is forcasted to expand at a moderate growth rate in the forthcoming years.
Heavier alpha olefins including 1-Octene and 1-Hexene can be used to manufacture LLDPE (linear low-density polyethylene). In recent years, a significant number of ethylene cracker plants with integrated specialty-class polythene production facilities have become operational. LLDPE based on 1-octene provides lower density, higher resistance to external pressure, and greater stiffness over lighter alpha olefin LLDPE. Due to their durable and lightweight packaging properties, such compounds ... Read more
