Cumene or isopropyl-benzene is a flammable organic compound. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon-based liquid with a boiling point of 305.6 Fahrenheit. It is used industrially as a base chemical to create cumene hydroperoxide in order to produce two commercially essential chemicals, phenol and acetone.

For cumene production, recently developed zeolite catalyst-based technology is the most widely used. However, some facilities still use older methods, which include technologies based on aluminum chloride and solid phosphoric acid catalyst.

The analysts forecast the Global Cumene market will grow at a CAGR of 4.29 percent over the period 2013-2018.

The Global Cumene market can be divided on the basis of application into two segments: Phenol/Acetone and Others.
