Petroleum Asphalt market grows from US$65.29 billion in 2023 to US$104.50 billion by 2030, with a 7.0% CAGR, driven by increasing demand in the downstream market.
Petroleum asphalt, also known as bitumen, is a byproduct of crude oil refining. It's a dark, viscous liquid or semi-solid material that consists of a complex mixture of hydrocarbons. These hydrocarbons range in size and chemical composition, but they all share a common characteristic: they are non-polar, meaning they don't readily dissolve in water. This property makes asphalt highly water-resistant, a crucial feature for its many applications.
When refined asphalt is mixed with aggregate (crushed rock, sand, and gravel) and filler materials, it forms asphalt concrete, the ubiquitous material used to pave roads and highways around the world. Asphalt concrete is strong, durable, and relatively inexpensive to produce. It can also be easily compacted and rolled out to create a smooth, seamless surface. These qualities have made asphalt concrete the dominant choice for road paving for over a century.
Asphalt also finds applications in roofing shingles, waterproofing membranes, and various industrial applications. Its adhesive properties allow it to bond well with other materials, while its water-resistant nature protects underlying structures from moisture damage. Additionally, asphalt can be modified with additives to enhance its properties for specific applications. For example, polymers can be added to improve asphalt's flexibility and resistance to cracking, while certain minerals can be used to enhance its fire resistance.
According to our publisher’s latest study, the global Petroleum Asphalt market size was valued at US$ 65290 million in 2023. With growing demand in downstream market, the Petroleum Asphalt is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 104500 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 7.0% during review period.
The research report highlights the growth potential of the global Petroleum Asphalt market. Petroleum Asphalt are expected to show stable growth in the future market. However, product differentiation, reducing costs, and supply chain optimization remain crucial for the widespread adoption of Petroleum Asphalt. Market players need to invest in research and development, forge strategic partnerships, and align their offerings with evolving consumer preferences to capitalize on the immense opportunities presented by the Petroleum Asphalt market.
What's Inside a Bonafide Research`s industry report?
A Bonafide Research industry report provides in-depth market analysis, trends, competitive insights, and strategic recommendations to help businesses make informed decisions.
Petroleum asphalt is a sticky, black and highly viscous liquid or semi-solid that is present in most petroleum crude oils and in some natural deposits. Petroleum crude oil is a complex mixture of a great many different hydrocarbons. Petroleum asphalt is defined as that part of crude oil which is separated from the higher-boiling hydrocarbons in crude oil by precipitation upon the addition of lower-boiling hydrocarbon solvents such as propane, pentane, hexane or petroleum asphalt. The precipitated material consists of asphaltenes which have an average molecular weight of about (800 - 2500 g/mole) and exist in the form of flat sheets of polyaromatic condensed rings with short aliphatic chains.
Global Petroleum Asphalt key players include ExxonMobil, CNPC, Sinopec, Cnooc, ConocoPhillips, etc. Global top five manufacturers hold a share about 30%. North America is the largest market, with a share about 30%, followed by China, with a share about 20 percent. In terms of product, Paving Petroleum Asphalt is the largest segment, with a share about 85%. And in terms of application, the largest application is Paving, followed by Roofing, etc.
