Highlights
In 2024, China's non-ionic surfactant market continued to face overcapacity, with the industry environment characterized by high costs and poor demand. On the supply side, the increase in new capacity slowed, and the capacity utilization rate remained low. In H1, 2024, only a portion of the switchable capacity was released. On the demand front, the total domestic demand was predicted to increase further in 2024, in line with the climbing of actual downstream consumption. In terms of exports, China’s non-ionic surfactant exports rose continuously because of the increase in domestic supply, a significant contradiction in overseas supply, and the ongoing development of the textile printing and dyeing industry. As for prices, from January to July 2024, the AEO-9 market prices railed, then fell, and then rose again, reaching a new high since 2023. At the beginning of the year, the market experienced a temporary small increase driven by feedstock prices and demand, but starting from late April, the market gradually declined. The market has been trending upward since the second part of June, owing to an increase in fatty alcohol prices. Non-ionic surfactant consumption is predicted to rebound in the third and fourth quarters, given the approaching peak season.
In the future, the non-ionic surfactant industry is expected to develop steadily, with an increase in overall demand driven by rising downstream consumption and export volume. However, addressing the oversupply will be challenging in the short run. Non-ionic surfactant is mainly used in the field of daily chemicals. China, one of the world’s largest consumers, contributes steadily to the advancement of this industry. Regarding exports, it is anticipated that the export volume will continue to increase, and net exports may begin to stabilize. SCI has been engaged in professional commodity market analysis for 20 years.
