イソブタンの世界市場は、2024年に143億113万米ドルと評価され、2030年までには195億9,979万米ドルに達すると予測され、予測期間中のCAGRは6.26%で成長する見込みです。
イソブタンは、石油化学、冷凍、エアゾール用推進剤、燃料混合など幅広い分野に応用されており、市場の安定した成長を後押ししています。イソブタンは、非常に可燃性の高い炭化水素であり、ブタンの構造異性体であるため、イソオクタン製造のための重要な原料であり、ガソリンの性能を向上させ、排出ガスを削減します。クリーン燃焼燃料に対する世界の需要の高まりと、厳しい環境規制の遵守が、大きな促進要因となっています。冷凍分野では、イソブタンの地球温暖化係数の低さが、その採用拡大を支えています。市場の見通しは依然として明るいものの、原油価格の変動やイソブタンの可燃性による慎重な取り扱いの必要性といった課題は、運用上のリスクとなっています。とはいえ、石油化学用途の拡大と環境に優しい取り組みが、今後数年にわたって市場の勢いを維持する可能性は高いです。

The Global Isobutane Market was valued at USD 14,301.13 million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 19,599.79 million by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.26% during the forecast period. Steady market growth is fueled by isobutane's extensive applications across sectors such as petrochemicals, refrigeration, aerosol propellants, and fuel blending. Isobutane, a highly flammable hydrocarbon and structural isomer of butane, is a critical feedstock for isooctane production, enhancing gasoline's performance while reducing emissions. Increasing global demand for clean-burning fuels and adherence to stringent environmental regulations are major growth drivers. In refrigeration, isobutane's low global warming potential is supporting its rising adoption. While the market outlook remains positive, challenges such as crude oil price volatility and the need for careful handling due to isobutane's flammability present operational risks. Nevertheless, expanding petrochemical applications and eco-friendly initiatives are likely to sustain market momentum over the coming years.

Key Market Drivers
Growth in Petrochemical Industry
The petrochemical sector's expansion is a key driver of the global isobutane market, as isobutane is extensively used as a feedstock for alkylation processes in refineries. Alkylation units utilize isobutane alongside olefins to produce alkylate, a crucial high-octane component in gasoline blending that contributes to cleaner-burning fuels. Growing environmental regulations requiring low-emission fuels are prompting refiners to invest in alkylation technologies, thereby increasing isobutane demand. Additionally, isobutane serves as a precursor for the production of isobutylene, which is used to manufacture materials such as butyl rubber, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), and polyisobutylene. These materials find broad application in automotive, packaging, and industrial sectors. Innovations such as bio-isobutane production from renewable resources further support demand growth. The petrochemical industry's pursuit of high-performance materials and diversified product portfolios positions isobutane as a vital raw material, driving its growing significance across multiple end-user sectors.
Key Market Challenges
Volatility in Raw Material Prices
Volatility in raw material prices remains a major challenge for the global isobutane market. Since isobutane production is closely tied to crude oil and natural gas derivatives, fluctuations in global oil prices have a direct impact on production costs and supply chain dynamics. Instability arising from geopolitical tensions, trade policies, and regulatory changes can lead to unpredictable pricing, affecting manufacturers' profitability and supply stability. Regions dependent on feedstock imports are particularly vulnerable to these fluctuations. In addition, volatile raw material pricing can delay project investments, disrupt supply agreements, and impact delivery timelines to key industries like refrigeration, fuels, and aerosols. Managing these pricing risks is critical for market participants aiming for long-term growth and competitiveness.
Key Market Trends
Growing Adoption of Eco-Friendly Refrigerant
A major trend shaping the global isobutane market is the increasing adoption of eco-friendly refrigerants. Isobutane (R-600a) is gaining favor as a sustainable alternative to traditional high-global warming potential refrigerants like R-134a and R-22. Regulatory frameworks, including the European Union's F-Gas Regulation and the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol, are driving a shift toward low-GWP refrigerants. Isobutane's low environmental impact-featuring zero ozone depletion potential and a minimal carbon footprint-makes it an attractive option for both domestic and commercial refrigeration systems. Manufacturers are increasingly transitioning to hydrocarbon-based refrigerants like isobutane to meet sustainability targets and comply with evolving regulations, reinforcing its role in the future of global cooling and refrigeration industries.
