H1 2023: The major producers of Alkyl Amine in H1 2023 were Huntsman Corporation, BASF Company Ltd., and Eastman Chemicals. Alkyl Amine prices were observed to be fluctuating in the Asia Pacific region in H1 2023. The volatile pricing of the feedstock ammonia was the main source of this price variation. As feedstock prices rose in January 2023 and downstream industries continued to demand Alkyl Amine, the product's price jumped in India. However, the product's price dropped in February and March as a result of high product availability in the Asian market and weak demand in India. Additionally, the price of feedstock ammonia decreased in March 2023 which had an impact on alkyl amine's pricing trend. In the European market, Alkyl Amine's price fluctuated in the European market. Imports from other countries, particularly those from the United States was the main cause of the price swings. Alkyl Amine's price rose in January 2023, but fell sharply in February and March 2023 due to a drop in demand from downstream sectors. The high inflation rate also played a role in the reduction in buying activity of alkyl amine in Europe. In the US, prices of feedstock ammonia reduced sharply in March 2023, which resulted in lowering the production cost of alkyl amines and in turn impacted the prices of alkyl amine in the US and regions importing the product from the US which included Europe.
The global Alkyl Amine market stood at approximately 2000 thousand tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.29% during the forecast period until 2030.
Amines are the derivatives of Ammonia. When one or more than one hydrogen of Ammonia is replaced with alkyl substituents, then the compound is called Alkyl Amine. Alkyl amines are used widely in manufacturing pesticides, surfactants, solvents, and reagents for the manufacture of rubber. Alkyl amines find their applications in multiple such as in explosives, chemicals, water treatment, medicines, and agriculture. Other uses of alkyl amine include its use as solvent, polymerization inhibitor, components of paint removers, rocket propellant and in the making of various specialities chemicals like methamphetamine.
The smallest member of Alkyl Amine group is methylamine. It is further classified into MMA (monomethylamine), DMA (dimethylamine) and TMA (trimethylamine) based on the number of methyl group replaced by Hydrogen of ammonia. They are produced by reacting Ammonia with methanol over a fixed bed silica-alumina catalyst. Another alkyl amine, Methyl amines find applications in the making of pesticides, explosives & surfactants. It is used for tanning purposes in dying industry. Ethyl amines find applications in the making of lubricants and fuel additives, epoxy hardeners, wet strength resins, carbamate fungicides, chelating agents, bleaching agents & many more. It is a chief ingredient of crop protection chemicals.
The increasing demand for Alkyl Amines in various industries to produce Pharmaceuticals, & Agrochemicals is driving the market around the world. The increasing usage of methyl & ethyl amines in the pharmaceutical sector for making drugs and formulations like Ephedrine & Remdesivir. By considering these reasons, the global Alkyl Amine market is anticipated to reach approximately 3000 thousand tonnes by the forecast period of 2030.
Based on type, the global Alkyl Amine market is divided into Methyl Amine, Ethyl Amine, and Higher Alkyl Amines (Isopropyl Amine, Hexamethylinediamine, etc). As of 2022, Higher Alkyl Amines are the leading segment with a market share of 34% followed by Ethyl Amine. Ethyl amines find applications in the making of lubricants and fuel additives, epoxy hardeners, wet strength resins, carbamate fungicides, chelating agents, bleaching agents & many more. It is a chief ingredient of crop protection chemicals. Isopropyl amine, a higher amine is a weak base and finds application in hair removing products, insecticides, and pesticides. Hexamethylenediamine has a significant industrial application in the textile and polymer industries to synthesize nylon 6,6, a polyamide which is widely utilized in plastics and textiles.
Based on region, Asia Pacific is dominating the Alkyl Amine market. Asia Pacific consumed about 65% of the global Alkyl Amine market in 2022. The increasing consumption of Alkyl Amine in growing populated regions of China, India, & Southeast Asian nations due to increased demand from end-use industries such the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and paint and solvent industries, the Asia Pacific markets are anticipated to expand quickly over the next few years. Followed by the Asia Pacific region, North America & Europe holds the second and third largest share of Alkyl Amine in terms of demand. Majority of the Alkyl Amine manufacturing sites are located in the Asia Pacific with China being the leading producer of alkyl amine.
Based on the end-user industry, the Alkyl Amine market is segmented into Pharmaceuticals, Agrochemicals, Water Treatment, Rubber chemicals, and Others. Among these, the Pharmaceuticals industry is the leading segment and accounted for around 51% of the share of total Alkyl Amine demand in 2022 and is expected to maintain its dominance in the anticipated period as well. The agrochemicals segment is also expected to witness robust growth in the next few years, which will further boost the demand for Alkyl Amine in the future.
Significant players in the Global Alkyl Amine market are Anyang Jiutian Fine Chemical Co. Ltd., Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc., Tosoh Corp., Alkyl Amines Chemicals Ltd., Huntsman Corporation, Dow - Du Pont, Delamine, Eastman Chemicals, US Amines, Methanol Chemical Company, Balaji Amines Ltd., and Others.
