N Propanol Petrochemicals Germany 1470 USD/MT


During the last quarter of 2024, the n-propanol prices in the USA reached 1270 USD/MT in December. As manufacturers continued to produce at a constant rate and consumers delayed their purchases, prices in the United States remained mostly unchanged. Instead of replenishing before the holidays, industries such as personal care, coatings, and pharmaceuticals withdrew and concentrated on stock reduction, influencing pricing patterns.

During the last quarter of 2024, the n-propanol prices in China reached 1250 USD/MT in December. As per the n-propanol price chart, prices increased in November as a result of aggressive purchases from important industries, particularly coatings and pharmaceuticals.

Product
Category Region Price
N Propanol Petrochemicals USA 722 USD/MT
N Propanol Petrochemicals China 125 USD/MT
N Propanol Petrochemicals Europe 335 USD/MT


The N propanol prices in the United States for Q4 2023 reached 722 USD/MT in December. The prices trended downward. Weak demand from herbicide and insecticide industries, reduced purchasing activities, and low manufacturing output significantly impacted the market. El Niño-related weather conditions affecting cargo rates also played a role, while improving ethylene supplies and lower crude oil prices reduced production costs, contributing to the bearish trend.

The price trend for N propanol in China for Q4 2023, reached 125 USD/MT in December. The prices saw varied movements. While the overall trend was downward due to high levels of inventory and reduced purchases from herbicide manufacturers, prices rose slightly towards the quarter end. This increase was driven by decreased production rates and mild purchasing activities, despite generally weak demand across the region.

The price trend for N propanol in Europe for Q4 2023, reached 335 USD/MT in December. The market showed a noticeable decline in prices due to sluggish demand and lower purchasing activities from key sectors like ink and cleaning products. Despite an initial inventory build-up and decreased ethylene costs, the ongoing economic downturn and reduced manufacturing output led to continued low consumption, keeping prices on a downward trajectory.

Europe N Propanol Price Trend

Q4 2024:

As per the n-propanol price index, the market saw a modest decline in Europe. There was little pressure on the supply side as production from domestic and international sources stayed stable. A seasonal slowdown hit industries like coatings, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, which made businesses postpone large purchases and exercise more cautious stock management. Holiday demand caused slight rises in a few consumer-facing industries, but not enough to have an impact on the upstream market. As a result, there was little change in price.

In Europe, N propanol prices fell sharply in late 2023 due to low demand and weakened buying from key industries. Weak interest from herbicide and ink manufacturers early in the quarter resulted in higher inventories. Mid-quarter, the decline in demand from cleaning agents and other end-users further pressured prices downward. Ethylene costs dropped as glycol industry demand softened, reducing n-propanol production costs. Moreover, the ongoing economic slowdown and a declining Eurozone manufacturing index dampened market activity, causing a lack of progress in demand, even as ethylene prices decreased due to higher inventories and weak uptakes from cleaning product manufacturers.

This analysis can be extended to include detailed N propanol price information for a comprehensive list of countries.

North America N Propanol Price Trend

Q4 2024:

The market in North America held stable. Imports continued unabated, and manufacturers maintained steady output levels. Instead of making big purchases, downstream industries, including personal care, coatings, and pharmaceuticals, concentrated on reducing inventory in time for the year-end slowdown. Moderate price was the outcome of balanced availability and constrained procurement. Throughout the last few months of the year, prices were stable due to a general climate of stable supply and low consumption.

During Q4 2023, the North American N propanol market saw a downward trend in pricing, primarily driven by weak demand from end-user sectors and limited buying activities. Herbicide and insecticide industries operated at moderate levels, reducing demand for n-propanol. El Niño’s impact on weather led to a drop in water levels of Panama Canal, lowering cargo rates, and a reduction in the production activities further diminished demand for cleaning agents. Despite improved supply conditions with enhanced ethylene availability and reduced costs of production due to lower crude oil prices, the market faced sluggish demand from personal care products manufacturers, leading to a continued price decline.

Asia Pacific N Propanol Price Trend

Q4 2024:

Prices in Asia showed regional variations. In China, prices rose in November due to a significant increase in purchasing activity, especially from the coatings, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. Aggressive stockpiling was motivated by the expectation of high year-end demand. In contrast, market players in South Korea reduced their purchases and concentrated on reducing their inventory. Demand was delayed by a decline in consumer and automotive goods activity, which helped to soften prices.

The Asia Pacific N propanol market experienced a steady decline in prices through the end of 2023, largely due to reduced buying activity and high inventory levels. Buyers in sectors such as floor cleaners, coatings, and insecticides showed little interest, impacting prices negatively. Early in the quarter, decreased use in agricultural applications led to sluggish sales. Lower costs for ethylene and reduced crude oil prices also played a role in decreasing production costs. As the quarter progressed, mixed market signals were observed: China's reduced production rates caused slight price increases, while adverse weather conditions and influenced trading activities in Southeast Asia continued to pressure prices downwards.
