C4 Raffinate Market Size, Forecast, Growth, Analysis

The global trade and use of C4 Raffinate, an essential hydrocarbon stream in the petrochemical industry, is included in the C4 Raffinate market. C4 raffinate, also referred to as Raffinate-1 or Raffinate-2, is the residual C4 fraction that remains after 1,3-butadiene and isobutene are extracted from mixed C4 streams. It is derived from naphtha cracking. It is a vital feedstock for the production of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), polybutenes, alkylate gasoline, and ethylene-propylene copolymers, which support industries including fuels, plastics, and synthetic rubber. Its main components are n-butane, isobutane, and butene isomers.
