  • What is the ICIS pricing methodology for plasticizers?
  • This is the ICIS pricing methodology for plasticizers. ICIS quotes plasticizer prices in Europe, Asia-Pacific and the US Gulf. ICIS continuously develops, reviews and revises its methodologies in consultation with industry participants. Previous versions of this methodology can be found under Archived Documents.
  • How volatile is the plasticizers market?
  • With such a diverse range of applications, the plasticizers market can be volatile as it reacts to consumer trends, seasonality and regional supply. Buyers, sellers and traders must act quickly to make the most of market opportunities. This means constant access to the most current prices and data is key.
  • Why do PVC compounders use low-priced plasticizers?
  • Some PVC compounders were opting for lower-priced plasticizers - such as DOTP - in certain cable applications (where workable). Their sacrifice of some of the high-performance elements of these plasticizers came at the expense of DPHP and DIDP markets.
  • How have plasticizer imports impacted the oxo-alcohol industry?
  • Imports of all general-purpose plasticizers have been competitive, as freight rates fell and the local markets in Asia failed to show any demand improvement, particularly China on which hopes had been pinned. As gas prices and propylene costs have gradually come down, oxo-alcohol producers have been less squeezed.
  • How will global demand for plasticizers affect the plasticizer market?
  • Continued global demand for flexible PVC will lead to continued growth for plasticizers. Demand for most downstream plasticizer markets is greatly influenced by general economic conditions. As a result, demand for plasticizers largely follows the patterns of the leading world economies.
  • Why are plasticizer prices going down?
  • Competition for volume has been strong amongst domestic players and in response to imports. TOTM (tris (2-ethylhexyl)trimellitate) - an alternative plasticizer for PVC medical devices - saw very sharp price erosion early in the year. But TOTM was not alone and all plasticizers markets saw prices moving down substantially.
