  • What happened to plasticizer prices in 2023?
  • Operating rates for US-based plasticizer plants remained reduced but with the disappointing level of demand from the construction market – as well as the increasing presence of imports – the US market was still amply supplied. Prices have eroded throughout 2023 to date, although they have not fallen quite as steeply as they have in Europe.
  • Why did plasticizer prices rise sharply in Q1 2022?
  • Plasticizers prices rose sharply in Q1 2022 as a result of the sharp rise in crude oil prices and improved downstream demand. The price of dioctyl phthalate averaged 1875 USD/MT towards the end of first sector. The increase in upstream value prices and the strengthening domestic market demand were the main factors influencing this price shift.
  • What is China's DOTP market price?

  • 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.
