In the initial month of the quarter, the price increased due to a scarcity of supply in the country. However, the demand from the downstream agriculture sector and polymer industry was commendable.

Alkyl Amine. The decrease was in line with the trend of its feedstock Ammonia,

The Asian market experienced asignificant decrease in the price of Alkyl Amine during Q1 2023. The primary factor that caused this price fluctuation was the unstable price of feedstock Ammonia.

However, in February and March, the price of the product fell by 3.5% and 6.6%, respectively, due to ample product availability in the Asian market and low domestic demand.

Europe

During Q1 2023, the price ofAlkyl Amine in the European market experienced mixed sentiments. The major reason behind the price fluctuations was attributed to imports from overseas, particularly from the United States. While the price of Alkyl Amine increased in the first month of the quarter, it declined rapidly in the second and third months due to decreased demand from downstream industries. Additionally, the high inflation rate and cost of living contributed to the decline in demand for the product as businesses were forced to increase their prices in response to the high cost of production. This, in turn, further reduced demand for the product. The price of the product in these months was also influenced by the overseas prices as the price of the product declined in the global market.
