The market development prospects of dodecyl alcohol esters are good. Runtai New Materials is the largest domestic manufacturer.

my country is a major producer of dodecyl alcohol esters. There are many domestic dodecyl alcohol ester manufacturers, including Jiangsu Runtai New Materials Co., Ltd., Shuanghong Chemical Co., Ltd., Puyang Hongye High-tech, Qilu Eastman, Huachang Zhidian New Materials, Dana Chemical, etc. Among them, Jiangsu Runtai New Materials is the leading company in domestic water-based coating film-forming additives and the largest manufacturer of dodecyl alcohol esters in my country. In recent years, Runtai New Materials has been laying out the domestic market. At the same time, it is also actively developing overseas markets.

Dodecyl alcohol ester is an alcohol ester compound, its chemical name is 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate, and its appearance is a colorless and transparent oily liquid. Dodecyl alcohol ester is an environmentally friendly, non-toxic new film-forming additive. Compared with traditional film-forming aids, dodecyl alcohol ester has good color development, good film leveling, good hydrolysis stability, It has the advantages of low toxicity and low film-forming temperature, and is suitable for water-based coating systems synthesized from various raw materials. At the same time, dodecyl alcohol ester can also be used as coating coalescing agent, flotation agent, plasticizer, etc., and is used in construction and decoration materials. , automobiles, petroleum, daily necessities and other fields.

In recent years, as residents’ awareness of environmental protection and green consumption has increased, the market demand for environmentally friendly water-based coatings has increased and has become a development trend in the coatings industry. With the rapid development of the water-based coating industry, the market demand for water-based coating film-forming additives has been released. As one of the most ideal water-based coating film-forming additives, dodecyl alcohol ester has been continuously expanded in its application scope. The industry Development also continues to improve.

According to the “China Dodecyl Alcohol Ester Industry Market In-depth Assessment and 2021-2025 Investment Feasibility Consultation Report released by the Industrial Research Center ” shows that my country’s production capacity of dodecyl alcohol esters is mostly concentrated in East China. In recent years, as the supply-side structural reform continues to deepen and the cost of raw materials rises, the operating pressure of backward enterprises of dodecyl alcohol esters has increased and they have gradually withdrawn from the market. The market concentration of carbon alcohol esters has increased. In the future market development, companies related to dodecyl alcohol esters should continue to optimize their processes, expand supply capabilities, and at the same time reduce product production costs and comprehensive energy consumption, thereby expanding their competitive advantages.

On July 1, 2021, the HG/T5801-2021 “Industrial 12-carbon alcohol ester” industry standard drafted by Jiangsu Runtai New Materials was officially implemented. The implementation of this standard will provide more reference basis for the production, inspection, use and evaluation of dodecyl alcohol esters, and help the dodecyl alcohol ester industry to upgrade in the direction of standardization, standardization and health.

Industry analysts said that in recent years, the water-based coating market has been developing well, which in turn has driven the growth in demand for film-forming additives for water-based coatings. Dodecanol ester is a new, environmentally friendly film-forming additive. Against this background, its market demand has been released. In the future, with the improvement of relevant standards and the optimization of production processes, the dodecyl alcohol ester industry will continue to develop in the direction of standardization, health, and high-end, and the development of the industry will continue to improve.
