Quarterly Update on Global Hydrogen Peroxide Market

For the Quarter Ending December 2020

Asia

The Asian Hydrogen peroxide supplies remained affected in Q4 2020 due to temporary shutdown of some of the manufacturing units in the north west Asian countries. The resumption of industrial activities and resumed international trade prompted steep rise in the consumption of Hydrogen Peroxide which ultimately affected its prices. Demand remained high from the downstream industries like healthcare and textiles for disinfectant purposes. Furthermore, spike in the rates of feedstock and energy values resulted in surge in the regional prices. Since the end of Q3, Hydrogen Peroxide had been witnessing an uptrend with rates settling around USD 340 per MT CFR India.

Europe

The European Hydrogen Peroxide market remained somewhat tight during the fourth quarter with significant reduction in the volumes of Hydrogen Peroxide traded in the region. Buying activity remained bullish from the downstream disinfectant sector amid surging COVID-19 cases. The disturbance in Imports due to tight container availability and exponential surge in freight rates kept the prices unreasonably high. Some spot buyers are expected to fill in their inventory in Q1 2021 from the Asian imports to meet the regional demand.

North America

Hydrogen Peroxide supplies in the North American region improved as major plants in the gulf coast restarted production after temporary closures observed in Q3. Due to increase in the price of Natural gas observed towards the end of the quarter, some producers revised their offers rates later in the quarter. Also, downstream plant operating rates gradually improved under the hope of recovery from the pandemic-induced slowdown in the textile and pulp and paper industries.

About

Hydrogen Peroxide (H₂O₂) is widely used in industries in its pure form. It is a colorless liquid with mild smell and as compared with water it is highly viscous. Hydrogen Peroxide decomposes in the presence of light; hence it is stored in dark colored bottles with weakly acidic solution and stabilizer. The anthraquinone process is used to produce Hydrogen Peroxide. In the presence of oxygen, anthrahydroquinone undergoes autoxidation process in which hydrogen atoms of the hydroxy group attached with the oxygen molecules and produce hydrogen peroxide and reproduce anthraquinone. Hydrogen Peroxide is a bulk chemical that can be act as both bleaching agent and oxidant to serve diverse group of industrial applications such as disinfectant, key ingredient in cosmetics and healthcare industry, environmental and industrial areas, and production of Propylene Oxide (used majorly in Polyurethane industry).
