The increasing prosperity of the environmentally friendly heat stabilizer industry will drive the growth of dibenzoylmethane (DBM) market demand

Dibenzoylmethane (DBM), also known as dibenzoylmethane and 1,3-diphenyl-1,3-propanedione, has a molecular formula of C15H12O2 and is a chemical substance. Dibenzoylmethane appears as colorless rhombic flake crystals. It is soluble in sodium hydroxide, diethyl ether and chloroform, but insoluble in sodium carbonate. Dibenzoylmethane has the advantages of good photostability, high transmittance, and non-toxicity, and can be used as analytical reagents and heat stabilizers.

The preparation methods of dibenzoylmethane include solid sodium methoxide catalysis method and solid sodium hydroxide catalysis method. The sodium methoxide catalytic method is a traditional preparation method for dibenzoylmethane. This method uses solid sodium methoxide as a catalyst, methyl benzoate and acetophenone as raw materials, and obtains the finished product through a condensation reaction. This method has the characteristics of low safety factor and high consumption. Disadvantages such as high energy; the solid sodium hydroxide catalytic method is an emerging preparation method for dibenzoylmethane. This method uses solid sodium hydroxide as a catalyst and has the advantages of short reaction time, low production cost, and full utilization of raw materials.

According to the “2023-2028 China Dibenzoylmethane (DBM) Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report span>》shows that dibenzoylmethane can be used to prepare analytical reagents and heat stabilizers. The products are widely used in fields such as plastic packaging and metal element content measurement. Dibenzoylmethane heat stabilizer can effectively improve the service life and thermal stability of polymer materials by eliminating hydroxyl radicals and capturing free radicals. As the development of downstream industries accelerates, the scale of my country’s dibenzoylmethane market will further expand.

In recent years, driven by national environmental protection policies, the development space of the environmentally friendly heat stabilizer industry has continued to expand. Dibenzoylmethane can be used to produce calcium-zinc composite heat stabilizer. This product has the advantages of non-pollution, anti-oxidation, good lubricity, and low operating cost. It is an environmentally friendly heat stabilizer that has been researched by many chemical companies and scientific research institutions in my country. One of the stabilizers.

As the prosperity of the environmentally friendly heat stabilizer industry increases, the number of companies in my country’s dibenzoylmethane industry continues to grow. The main manufacturers of dibenzoylmethane in my country include Anhui Jiaxian Functional Additives Co., Ltd., Lianyungang Xingang Chemical Co., Ltd., Shanghai Yuanye Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Shandong Jianxing New Material Technology Co., Ltd., Shenxian Shuiyuan New Energy Technology Ltd. etc. The production technology of Jiaxian Co., Ltd. has reached the world’s advanced level and it is the largest supplier of dibenzoylmethane in my country.

Industry analysts said that dibenzoylmethane has the characteristics of good photostability, high transmittance and non-toxicity. Widely used in many fields. In recent years, with the in-depth research and technological progress of local enterprises, the production and quality of dibenzoylmethane in my country have been continuously improved. It is expected that in the future, as the market demand for environmentally friendly heat stabilizers grows, the development speed of my country’s dibenzoylmethane industry will further accelerate.
