Market Overview

For the Quarter Ending March 2021

North America

Alkyl Amines market in the North American region witnessed constraint supplies of feedstock and was unable to cater the demand from downstream agrochemical and pharmaceutical market. Amines plants in DOW and BASF were forced to shut down amid the severe freeze weather conditions in the USA Gulf region. The region witnessed steep uptrend in the feedstock Ammonia prices which led to a multifold hike in the prices of Alkyl Amines as well. Imports from the Asian suppliers surged as the domestic buyers became more flexible towards the Asian market for feasible procurement.

Asia-Pacific (APAC)

During the first quarter of 2021, the Asia pacific supplies of Alkyl Amines remained tight due to the reduced inventories levels amid the Chinese Lunar New Year holidays, and the delay in ammonia cargoes due to congestion and high shipment freight charges in prime trading routes. Demand surged from the pharmaceutical sector, whereas enquiries from agrochemical sector hiked amid the seasonal demand. The diversion of shipments towards USA on back of hiked seasonal demand surged the prices, especially in Southeastern region with Ex-depot Mumbai prices of n-Butyl Amine and Mono-Methyl Amine settling at USD 2029 per ton and USD 914 per ton in early March.     

Europe

In the European region, supplies of Alkyl amines showcased mixed sentiments. Plants were heard operating at sluggish rated due to the shortage in key feedstock Methanol and Ammonia. The transportation lag occurred in the Northwest European region, as the routes between Amsterdam –Rotterdam-Antwerp were closed due to the extreme cold weather. Demand from the downstream market surged as the offtakes improved from the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sector.

Alkyl Amines is a large class of nitrogen-containing organic compounds used across a plethora of chemical industries. Amines are generally produced through hydrogen-reduction reactions using metals as catalysts under high pressure. Amines are generally produced from Ammonia (NH3), by displacement of Hydrogen molecule in the Ammonia molecule with alkyl radicals (R) such as Methyl, Ethylene, Propanol etc. Structurally, three types of alkyl amines are produced-Primary, Secondary or Tertiary, based on the number of hydrogen atoms displaced. Alkyl Amines have wide-ranging applications in the rubber processing chemicals, agrochemicals, surfactants, and solvents. The key end-use markets that they serve include explosives, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, animal/poultry feed additives and water-treatment. Globally, the Alkyl Amines industry is an oligopoly with two-three producers catering to the majority demand. Eastman Chemical Company and BASF are the largest players globally among the top six players having a greater hold of the global Alkyl Amine capacities.
