Bio-ketones are a category of organic compounds which retain important physiological properties that are produced from bio-based raw materials, which result in it becoming entirely environment-friendly. There are numerous bio-ketones, some of them are Bio Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), Bio Polyether ether ketone (PEEK), Bio Acetone and, Others. Bio-ketones are majorly used as solvents in the paint and coating sector, as preservatives, and in hydraulic fluids. Compared to other solvents in the same evaporation, bio-ketones have decent solvency for a broad variety of resins including, polyesters, acrylics, epoxies, vinyl chloride/vinyl acetate copolymers, nitrocellulose, and alkyds. 

COVID-19 Impact

The global pandemic caused by the novel coronavirus has crippled the economy. While the lockdown may have helped limit the spread of the virus, it has severely affected and disrupting the entire value chain of most major industries in India. In most of the industry, it has an effect by directly affecting production and demand, by creating supply chain and market disruption, and by its financial impact on firms and financial markets. The global economy has rebounded from the lows of 2020. However, it is expected that the negative impact of COVID-19 on Bio-ketones to be compensated over the medium to long term future.

Bio-ketones Market Segment Analysis – By Product Type

Bio Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) held the largest share of 41% in the Bio-ketones Market in 2020. This growth is mainly attributed to the increasing demand for Bio-PEEK in varied applications such as in paint and coatings, automobiles, building and construction, and others. Because of its toughness, PEEK is used to manufacture items used in applications, including bearings, piston parts, pumps, and cable insulation. It is one of the few plastics compatible with ultra-high vacuum applications. It is extensively used in the aerospace, automotive, and chemical process industries. PEEK has V? (Initial Velocity) flammability rating down to 1.45 mm and an LOI  (Loss on ignition) of 35%. Its smoke and toxic gas generation are extremely low. Another advantage of the PEEK cage is that it is radiolucent. Its main disadvantage is that its hydrophobic nature. Thus, it will never bond to bone, unlike titanium. Therefore, to achieve a solid fusion, one has to select a filler that has a high likelihood of fusing.

Bio-ketones Market  Segment Analysis - By End-Use Industry

Automotive Industry dominates the Bio-ketones Market in terms of consumption, growing at a CAGR of 8.5% during forecast period. The automotive industry with a production of 77.6 million in 2020 according to Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobile (OICA) and Bio-PEEK is one of the highest performing thermoplastics available to the automotive industry. With the growing trend of miniatured engine compartments, Bio-PEEK offers a solution to replace metals and offer weight reduction, noise reduction, and functional integration. The main applications include: under-the-hood piston units, seals, washers, bearings and, various active components used in transmission, braking and air-conditioning systems.

Bio-ketones Market Segment Analysis - Geography 

Asia Pacific region held the largest share in the Bio-ketones Market in 2020 up to 43% followed by North America and Europe. APAC as a whole is set to continue to be one of the largest and fastest-growing markets globally. Large and more developed markets such China, India, Japan, and South Korea are expected to grow more in the coming years. China is driving much of the Bio-ketones market due to rising huge demand from the pharmaceutical industry, followed by India and Japan. Asia-Pacific dominates the bio-ketones market due to its cheap labor and cost. Besides, with the growing demand for paints and coatings from the construction sector, along with an increase in automotive manufacturing facilities across China, India and, Thailand for instance, Japan's automotive market rebounded by over 29% to 349,895 units in April 2021 from the previous sale. Similarly, Vietnam automotive market continued to rebound in April 2021, with sales surging by over 75% to 18,941 units from weak year-earlier sales of 10,816 units. The rapid increase in the demand for automotive in the APAC region is likely to improve the demand for bio-ketones, which is estimated to produce at a high rate in the upcoming years.

Bio-ketones Market Drivers

Bio-PEEK playing role in Aerospace

It was used mainly for two components of the Jovian Auroral Distributions Experiment aboard NASA's Juno Space Probe. PEEK was chosen because it is stiff, strong, and lightweight. It also has a low outgassing profile compared with most plastics exposed to the high vacuum of space. One part required molding PEEK around an aluminum ring and the other needed multiple aluminum inserts that were first machined and then press-fit into the molded plastics. With the success of the Bio-PEEK materials in the Aerospace industry, the demands are valued to raise in the analyzed year. Also, the escalating rise in crude oil and petroleum-based productions prices are impeding the growth of non-renewable sources productions.
