Isohexadecane Production Cost Breakup By Petroleum

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

This report proffers the thorough economics of isohexadecane production from petroleum. The production process is initiated by the hydrogenation of a mixture of isomers of C16 olefins derived from petroleum in the presence of a catalyst. The mixture of isomers of C16 olefins includes 1-hexadecene, 2-hexadecene, etc., and are hydrogenated in the presence of a catalyst such as Lindlar's catalyst and H2. The process results in the production of isohexadecane as the final product.

Top Producers of Isohexadecane

  • R.I.T.A
  • Presperse (Sumitomo Corporation)
  • The Innovation Company
  • Vantage Specialty Ingredients
  • Elementis

Feedstock for Isohexadecane

Isohexadecane is a petrochemical compound that is prepared by using a mixture of C16 olefins as its primary feedstock. The procurement of isohexadecane is determined by different factors that are mainly associated with its market dynamics. Some of the major factors, such as the availability of its raw materials (including crude oil, ethylene, etc.), manufacturing cost, logistics, and trading activities, play a vital role in influencing its procurement on a large scale. Additionally, factors including its demand from the downstream industries (such as cosmetics, chemicals, pharmaceutical, etc.), sustainability, environmental concerns, along stability in its supply chain altogether help in governing its overall procurement in the global market.
