Phenol and acetone markets have been steadily riding the waves since the economic recovery set in. Spurred by strong growth in Bisphenol A, phenol demand has been peaking. Will the global demand supply balance stabilize this quarter? How will phenol/acetone capacities balance out in the near term?

 

Worldwide phenol growth is expected to return to around 5%/year through 2015. Total demand is also expected to recover from 7.9m tonnes in 2009 to reach 10.6m tonnes by 2015. Will this bring on a fresh round of investments?

 

The Asian MMA market is forecasted to be tight as demand outweighs supply and the situation is further exacerbated by a spate of turnarounds. Will the tightness in supply ease when Asahi PTT and Thai MMA come on stream next year?

 

Polycarbonate markets have recovered with projected growth of 6% through 2010 and beyond. How will Saudi Kayan's polycarbonate project impact the demand and supply balance worldwide? With the shrinking of the optical media market, long-term Polycarbonate growth would have to come from the IT, automotive and construction industries. Come March 2011, the EU will ban BPA in infant feeding bottles. How would this further affect the PC market? What is happening in all these sectors that will drive the market in the near future?

 

With decline in the construction sector, phenolic resins markets face tough times though long term global growth of 3-4%/year is expected. Even as derivative markets mature in Asia there are concerns about the margins from phenolic and epoxy resins. What are the market sentiments driving these? Are there any new developments and applications that can lead to a shift in the phenol markets?

 

To get an answer to many such questions, attend CMT's 8th Phenol/Acetone & Derivative Markets Conference. You will learn about critical issues that shape the phenol acetone markets today.

 

The conference provides an excellent platform and opportunity for you to network with them and make important contacts.

23 Feb, 2011

Phenol and bisphenol A supplies is expected to remain tight in 2011 on increasing demand, resulting in high prices in the markets.

 

According to statistics in a business ezinemark article, phenol demand in Asia is expected to increase by 9% to 3.91 million tons in 2011. Specifically, China’s consumption levels are predicted to rise by 18% to 1.27 million tons, almost one-third of Asia. Additionally, seasonal demand over the Chinese Lunar New Year will contribute to the shortage situation.

 

The 8th Phenol/Acetone & Derivatives Markets held in Singapore on 2-3 March 2011 will address the phenol market outlook for Asia. Particularly, experts will provide growth forecasts and closely analyze the demand/supply situation in China and globally.

European phenol availability will remain tight on strong domestic and export demand for the petrochemical and its derivatives, market sources said.

 

Bisphenol A (BPA), which accounts for 30% of phenol demand, is expected to remain strong throughout 2011 and into 2012, largely in the key Chinese market but also in Europe, and this is expected to compound an already tight position for phenol globally.

 

Strong demand for polyamide feedstocks, caprolactam and adipic acid are also expected to remain strong in 2011, with double-digit growth expected in Asia, particularly for polyamide 6.

 

Owing to insufficient production in the key Chinese market and higher prices across the region, European caprolactam producers with flaking facilities will continue to export to Asia because the differential over benzene is far greater than in Europe.

 

A surprise turnaround for the phenol market has been the strong resurgence of demand for phenolic resins in 2010, a trend which looks set to continue into 2011.

With tighter Europe phenol supplies forecasted against stronger demand for various derivatives, how is the global phenol/acetone industry expected to play out in the year 2011?

 

Supported by an international panel of experts, the 8th Phenol/Acetone & Derivatives conference to be held in Singapore on 2-3 March 2011 will provide clarity into the above vital question and more. Expect critical updates on global market outlook and trends for phenol & acetone, as well as key reviews on derivatives including BPA, PC, MMA, epoxy, and phenolic resin and others.
