In the past two years, my country's n-propanol production capacity has expanded rapidly, and the problem of overcapacity has gradually emerged

n-Propanol, also known as 1-propanol, is a colorless and transparent liquid obtained by oxo synthesis of propionaldehyde from ethylene and then reduced. It is miscible with various solvents such as water, alcohol, ether, and hydrocarbons. n-Propanol has a wide range of applications. As an intermediate, n-propanol can be used to produce n-propylamine, propyl ester, propionamide and other products. As a solvent, n-propanol is also used in cosmetics, fungicides, coatings, paints, adhesives and other fields. widely used. In recent years, with the growth of my country’s economy, the market demand for n-propanol has been continuously released.

From the perspective of the domestic market, due to the impact of imported products, the overall production capacity of my country’s n-propanol industry showed a downward trend from 2015 to 2019. From July 2019 to September 2020, the Ministry of Commerce conducted multiple rounds of anti-dumping investigations against n-propanol. With the advancement of anti-dumping work, my country’s n-propanol supply pattern has been greatly improved. Against this background, new domestic n-propanol production capacity has gradually increased.

According to the “2022-2026 China n-Propanol Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report released by the Industrial Research Center , from 2019 to 2021, in order to fill the supply gap caused by the reduction of imported goods, my country’s n-propanol industry production capacity has grown rapidly. In 2021, the n-propanol industry’s production capacity will reach about 200,000 tons. Under the influence of anti-dumping, my country’s n-propanol production capacity has expanded rapidly. However, because the growth rate of production capacity is higher than the growth rate of market demand, the overcapacity situation in the n-propanol industry has become increasingly serious.

The global n-propanol market is mainly concentrated in China, Germany, the United States and other regions. In the international market, n-propanol suppliers mainly include Dow Chemical, Odia, Taiwan Dalian Chemical, South Africa’s Sasol Company, etc. In terms of production technology, n-propanol production technology mainly includes three categories: allyl alcohol by-product method, propylene by-product method and ethylene method. my country mainly uses ethylene method and allyl alcohol by-product method. The largest n-propanol production companies in my country include Ningbo Juhua Chemical Technology, Sandian Chemical, Nanjing Nuo New Materials, Nanjing Rongxin Chemical, Luxi Chemical, Changchun Chemical, etc.

In the international market, n-propanol is mainly used in the solvent field. In the domestic market, n-propanol is mainly used to produce n-propyl acetate, accounting for more than 60% of the demand. Compared with n-butanol, isopropyl alcohol, acetate and other solvents, n-propanol has obvious application advantages. As the environmental protection requirements of coatings, inks and other industries increase, n-propanol is expected to gradually replace the above solvent products in the future. The expansion of application fields and the upgrading of market demand may bring broad development space to the n-propanol market.

Industry analysts said that driven by anti-dumping policies, my country’s n-propanol production capacity has expanded rapidly in the past two years. The problem of overcapacity in alcohol production is also becoming increasingly serious. Against this background, finding new development opportunities has become the focus of domestic enterprises. As a low-toxic and environmentally friendly solvent, n-propanol has broad application prospects in coatings, inks and other fields. In the future, with the expansion of application fields and the improvement of environmental protection requirements, the problem of overcapacity of n-propanol is expected to be alleviated.
