H1 2023: The major producers of Aniline in H1 2023 were Wanhua Chemical Group, Covestro AG, BASF SE, and Huntsman Corporation. Regionally, Asia Pacific was the region that consumed the most aniline in H1 2023. However, prices of aniline remained volatile in H1 2023 in this region. In January 2023, prices dropped as a result of low orders by the downstream methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) over the Lunar New Year holidays. Following a change in the price trend, prices rose in February 2023 due to improved demand for by the downstream MDI sector. Prices further rose in March 2023 as a result of an increase in inquiries and market trading activity in the Chinese market. The pressure on upstream costs increased at the same time due to shifting upstream costs and fluctuating crude oil prices in China. However, April onwards, aniline price fell in the Asian region. Due to poor consumption rates in downstream MDI sectors and a lackluster market for PU foam in the manufacturing sector amid abundant supply, there was low demand from regional and worldwide importers. Due to the stagnant construction industry, consumption rates from polyurethane elastomer industry were sluggish. Besides, US also experienced mixed Aniline market scenario in H1 2023. The price trend for aniline was bullish till May 2023 and prices moved up slightly during this period. Due to adequate supply, moderate production rates, and stable manufacturing sector activity, the orders for MDI by the Polyurethane industries remained mediocre. Prices fell in mid-May 2023 in the US as a result of low upstream prices, reduction of production costs and low consumption rates by the downstream industries.
H1 2022: During H1 2022, the total production of Aniline reached roughly 3.4 million thousand tonnes. The key players were Covestro AG, Wanhua Chemical Group, BASF SE, and Huntsman Corporation. Although, Covestro AG gained the highest rank in terms of producing Aniline. Regionally, Asia Pacific held the position of the biggest consumer of Aniline during H1 2022. In India, aniline prices have been on a dramatic upward trend during January 2022. It was due to limited shipments from China as production was halted due to the Winter Olympics and lunar calendar holidays. The aniline market grew substantially due to strong demand and low supply in the Asia’s market. In addition, due to of COVID-19 cases and the implementation of lockdowns further affected trade in China, which led to a turmoil. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions led to higher prices of crude oil and upstream commodities, which impacted aniline prices in the Asian nations. However, sluggish demand in the Indian market contributed to the price decline across India in June 2022. The decline in imports and weak purchasing sentiment had led to fall in aniline prices. There was abundance of raw material in China as they purchased raw materials at cheap prices.
H2 2022: During H2 2022, the total production of Aniline had reached nearly 3.6 million tonnes across the globe, which was comparatively higher than H1 2022. In Asia Pacific region, the price trend of Aniline fluctuated during H2 2022. In the beginning months of H2 2022, Aniline prices fell due to weak demand from downstream industries across Asia. As the summer heat wave occurred in China, major Chinese MDI manufacturers had to reduce their operating rates under government orders. Additional factors like the depreciation of the currency of China due to the economic slowdown due to repeated lockdowns also had a negative impact on the Aniline prices. However, aniline market was bearish in China during September 2022. In September 2022, aniline prices again picked up on the trend owing to increased product purchases in India. It was observed that the aniline prices rose again from October 2022 due to strong demand from importing nations due to lower supplies and rising crude oil and benzene feedstock prices. In November 2022, prices began to fall across APAC as the trading activity had slowed due to supply chain disruptions and the global freight rates fell. In Europe, aniline prices rose as production rates were impacted by raw material supply shortages due to the Beixi Pipeline explosion. The product price trends changed from November 2022, owing to abundance of inventories in Europe.
The global Aniline market stood at nearly 7 million tonnes in 2022 and is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of 5.30% during the forecast period until 2032.
Phenylamine, often known as aniline (C6H5NH2), is an organic molecule made up of an amino group and a phenyl group. It is an oily, combustible liquid that is either colourless or slightly yellow in hue. It is produced via catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene and has a high solubility in ether and alcohol as well as a low solubility in water. Aniline is an aromatic amine which is being popularly used as the key feedstock for manufacturing Methylene Diphenyl Diisocyanate (MDI), the key ingredient in polyurethane (PU) foams, which are widely used for insulation in construction, automotive, and plastic industries, the demand for Aniline is likely to witness robust growth in the forecast period.
Growing demand for rigid PU foam in construction and electronics industry and flexible PU foam in furniture and transportation sector is anticipated to propel the growth of the global Aniline market in the forecast period. Rising demand for innovative MDI materials for energy efficient insulating materials in buildings and refrigeration systems would accelerate the market growth in the forecast period. The consumption of aniline/MDI largely follows the patterns of the leading world economies and augurs well with growth in construction/remodeling activity, automotive production, and original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Other important application of Aniline is its use as a chemical intermediate in rubber industry where it is used in the production of vulcanization accelerators, activators, and anti-degradants. Other fields of Aniline application include dyes and pigments, agricultural chemicals, herbicides, dyes, photography and pharmaceuticals. Owing to these factors, the Aniline market is expected to reach 12 million tonnes in 2032.
Regionally, the Asia Pacific region is dominating the Aniline market followed by Europe. In 2022, Asia Pacific held a market share of approximately 55%. The reason for this is the expanding use of methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), which is made from aniline and used to make a variety of sealants and insulating materials for infrastructure purposes. One of the primary reasons favoring market expansion is the increase in residential and commercial building construction activities due to the expanding population in developing nations such as India, Japan, and China. China is the world's leading producer and consumer of polyurethanes and being the world’s largest automotive manufacturing hub, offers a humungous potential to the global Aniline market.
Based on the end-user industry, the global Aniline market is segmented into Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), Rubber-processing Chemicals, Dyes & Pigments, and Others. Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) manufacturing is the major consumer of the Aniline market and captured more than 74% of the market in 2022. Due to its expansive application, MDI manufacturing is expected to be the fastest-growing Aniline demand segment.
