Competition in the methyldiethanolamine industry has eased and the future market prospects are broad

The molecular formula of methyldiethanolamine is C5H13NO2, CAS number is 105-59-9, and it is a colorless or slightly yellow viscous liquid. Methyldiethanolamine contains two hydroxyl groups and one amino group. It has the advantages of high selectivity, low solvent consumption, significant energy saving effect, and is not easy to degrade. It can be widely used in desulfurization and purification emulsifiers and acid gas absorbents and acid absorbers for oil field gas and coal gas. Alkali control agent, polyurethane foam catalyst. In addition, methyldiethanolamine can also be used as an intermediate for pesticides, emulsifiers, and the anti-tumor drug nitrogen mustard hydrochloride.

In recent years, my country’s methyldiethanolamine industry has made great progress, but there are still some shortcomings. In terms of production technology, there are few enterprises and scientific research units that conduct independent research and production of methyldiethanolamine. There is a certain gap in production technology compared with foreign countries. Moreover, the production technology adopted by most enterprises is relatively backward, and there are certain environmental pollution problems in the production process. . From the perspective of product types, the types of methyldiethanolamine products are relatively single, and there is not much difference in the methyldiethanolamine products produced by various companies. In terms of application fields, methyldiethanolamine products are mainly concentrated in the fields of desulfurization and decarbonization. They are rarely used in medicine, coatings and other fields, and there is still a large space for development. From the perspective of development prospects, the increase in downstream demand has caused the market size of the methyldiethanolamine industry to continue to expand.

According to 《China 2023-2028 released by the Industrial Research Center The methyldiethanolamine industry market in-depth research and development prospect forecast report》 shows that the global methyl diethanolamine industry Diethanolamine production companies are mainly concentrated in developed countries such as the United States, Germany and Canada, so these countries are the regions with the largest production capacity of the global methyldiethanolamine industry. In 2022, the global methyldiethanolamine industry production capacity will exceed 600,000 tons, and domestic production capacity will also exceed 100,000 tons.
