Production and Market of Ethanolamine in China

China’s ethanolamine industry has changed much in the past three years, especially in 2011. As the second largest producer and consumer of ethanolamine in the world, China will play a more important role in global market.

Attracted by growing demand in domestic market, more enterprises are engaged in the production of ethanolamine in China. At the end of 2011, there are 22 active ethanolamine producers. Both capacity and output of ethanolamine witness high growth rate from 2007 to 2011. Among these active producers, who boosted the fast growth of ethanolamine production in the past five years? And why do foreign enterprises start to newly build plant in China? And whether some new projects or capacity expansion are planned in China by the end of 2011?

Since the domestic supply of ethanolamine can’t meet the demand in China, besides the quality of domestic products fails in the requirement of some downstream products, such as glyphosate and taurine, a large quantity of ethanolamine is imported annually to China before 2011. With the commissioning of large ethanolamine production lines at the end of 2010 and in 2011, the import volume of ethanolamine in China has dropped in 2011. What is the situation of ethanolamine import in the past years, and how about the detailed import situation of ethanolamine in 2011?

In China, ethanolamine is mainly used in the production of cement grinding aid, agrochemicals, organic synthesis, surfactant, polyurethane, etc. In the past years, driven by cement grinding aid and organic synthesis, the ethanolamine consumption grows rapidly in China. With the development of each downstream industry, the consumption pattern of ethanolamine is changing. What changes have happened for ethanolamine consumption pattern in China? How about the detailed consumption situation of ethanolamine including each ethanolamine product in each downstream industry in China in 2011?

In this report, it will give the answers to the above questions and show the truth to penetrate into China’s ethanolamine market. Besides, other points in China's ethanolamine industry are covered:

- Production technology from major suppliers
- Raw material supply situation
- Price change of ethanolamine in 2007-2011
- Involvement and achievement of multinational corporations
- Competitive landscape in ethanolamine industry
- Forecast on supply and demand to 2020 and the trend of major downstream industries
- Introduction to key active ethanolamine producers SHOW LESS READ MORE >
