  • Why are plasticizers so popular?
  • By creating viscosity, flexibility, softness and other properties to finished products, plasticizers are in demand from multiple manufacturing sectors for everything from automotive components to medical equipment, packaging and toys.
  • 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 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.
  • Why have plasticizer prices eroded in 2023?
  • Prices have eroded throughout 2023 to date, although they have not fallen quite as steeply as they have in Europe. Competition for volume in the face of an increased interest in importing plasticizers from outside the US has been one of the factors driving the recent price erosion.
  • 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.
