Iso butane is a colorless gaseous compound, majorly associated with chemical and petrochemical industries. It serves as a refrigerant and is utilized for cooling operations. The compound can also be used as a fuel alternative to power engines. It acts as an aerosol propellant, fluids that are used in aerosol cans. Moreover, isobutane can be used to produce rubber varieties, specifically synthetic rubber that can be used to produce engine bearings, conveyor belts, and clutches etc. Similarly, it is used as a liquified gaseous compound along with propane in energy generation applications.

The demand for isobutane as an isomer of butane in the petrochemical and chemical industries strengthens its market growth. Its strong demand as a fuel variety, along with propane, etc., drives its demand in the petrochemical sector. Similarly, its usage as an aerosol propellant in aerosol cans, refrigerants, etc., fuels its demand in the chemical industries. Moreover, its applications in the preparation of certain synthetic rubber varieties boost its demand in the rubber and polymer industries.

Industrial iso butane procurement is strongly influenced by the changes observed in its demand as an isomer of butane in the petrochemical and chemical sectors. Other factors, such as its market prices, supply, trade, and transportation, also impact its procurement across various regions. Hence, these factors such as its demand in the petrochemical and chemical industries, along with the changes in its market prices and supply etc., have a prominent impact on its procurement in the global market.

Raw Material for Iso butane Production

According to the isobutane manufacturing plant project report, the key raw material for isobutane production includes butane or n-butane.

Manufacturing Process of Iso butane

The extensive iso butane production cost report consists of the major industrial manufacturing process:

• By Isomerization Method: The manufacturing process of isobutane is initiated by the isomerization of n-butane in the presence of a catalyst or a mixture of catalyst.

Iso butane is the isomerized form of butane, with a chemical formula C4H10, and its molecular weight is 58.12 g/mol. It is a colorless, gaseous chemical compound with a faint petroleum-like odor. It is a highly combustible gaseous compound with a density of 0.55 g/cm³ at a standard temperature of 25 °C. Its flash point is measured approximately at -82.99°C. Its vapors are heavier than air and have a vapor density of 2.06 relative to air. The melting and boiling point of isobutane is -159.6 °C and -11.7 °C, respectively. It easily vaporizes under atmospheric pressure and normal temperature.
