Aluminum diethyl hypophosphite (ADP) is a new phosphorus flame retardant and market demand continues to increase
Aluminum diethyl hypophosphite (ADP) product appears in the form of white powder, has good fluidity, and is insoluble in water and organic solvents such as acetone, methylene chloride, methyl ethyl ketone, and toluene. Aluminum diethyl hypophosphite is a type of phosphorus-based environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardant. It has excellent properties such as high heat resistance, good dispersibility, efficient flame retardant, non-toxic and low smoke, and good compatibility. It is a halogen-based flame retardant. An excellent alternative to agents.
As a new flame retardant, aluminum diethyl hypophosphite can be used for flame retardant modification of PA, PBT, epoxy resin, high-temperature nylon, SEBS, thermosetting plastics and elastomers, etc., and is widely used in electronic appliances, wires and cables, and electronic packaging. , new energy vehicles and leather coating and other fields. In recent years, as environmental protection supervision has become increasingly strict, the market demand for new, environmentally friendly, efficient, and non-toxic flame retardants has increased. Against this background, the market attention of aluminum diethyl hypophosphite has increased, and the scale of the industry has continued to expand.
According to the “2021-2025 Global Aluminum Diethyl Phosphate (ADP) Industry In-depth Market Research and Key Area Research Report》 shows that aluminum diethylphosphinate is a new, environmentally friendly phosphorus-based flame retardant. In recent years, with the release of market demand, the number of companies entering the market has increased. At this stage, the companies engaged in the research and production of aluminum diethylphosphinate in my country include Jiangsu Liside New Materials, Puer Chemical, Fujian Xin’an Technology, Qingdao Opuri New Materials, Weihai Hairun New Materials, Zhejiang Xinhua Chemical, etc.
The aluminum diethyl hypophosphite market is highly concentrated. In the international market, Clariant is the largest aluminum diethyl hypophosphite manufacturer, with a market share of nearly 80%. The company’s aluminum diethyl hypophosphite trade name is Exolit®. OP series, Clariant’s Exolit® OP series is currently relatively mature, with representative products including OP1230, OP1240, OP1400, etc.
In 2021, due to the implementation of the production and electricity restriction policy, my country’s yellow phosphorus, red phosphorus and other production will decline, and for a long time, yellow phosphorus production and inventory will remain at low levels. Due to the mismatch between supply and demand, the market price of yellow phosphorus continues to rise. Yellow phosphorus is the main source of phosphorus in phosphorus-based flame retardants. Affected by this, the prices of phosphorus-based flame retardants such as aluminum diethylphosphinate and ammonium polyphosphate have continued to rise. It also rose accordingly. At the same time, the supply of raw materials has decreased and prices have increased, which has also had a certain impact on the production of aluminum diethylphosphinate. For example, Clariant announced that during this period, the supply of Exolit® OP, Hordaphos and other phosphorus-containing chemicals will be significantly reduced.
Industry analysts said that my country has a large number of aluminum diethyl hypophosphite production companies, but compared with international companies, domestic companies There are still certain gaps in production technology, R&D investment, production scale, brand building, etc. As an excellent substitute for halogen flame retardants, aluminum diethyl hypophosphite has the characteristics of non-toxic, low smoke, and good compatibility. As environmental protection supervision becomes increasingly strict, the aluminum diethyl hypophosphite market has broad room for development.
