Ethyl cyanoacrylate is a fast-acting adhesive best known as the main ingredient in "super glue." Its ability to quickly bond a variety of materials makes it widely used in consumer products for household repairs, arts and crafts, and model building. Industrially, it is employed for assembling electronics, automotive parts, and appliances. In medicine and veterinary care, it functions as a wound closure agent and is used in dental and surgical procedures, although alternatives are preferred for direct skin contact. Other notable applications include forensic fingerprint development, cosmetic adhesives for nails and eyelashes, and specialized uses in aquariums, microscopy, and aerospace.

Feedstock for Ethyl Cyanoacrylate

The feedstock involved in the production process of ethyl cyanoacrylate consists of ethyl 2-cyanoacetate and formaldehyde. The changes in demand for ethyl 2-cyanoacetate in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and specialty chemicals impact its pricing. Ethyl 2-cyanoacetate production depends on the availability and cost of upstream raw materials such as cyanoacetic acid (the costs of its primary raw materials, such as sodium cyanide and chloroacetic acid affects its pricing) and ethanol (the cost of raw materials such as corn, sugarcane, or molasses determines ethanol pricing).

Formaldehyde is utilized as another major raw material for the production process of ethyl cyanoacrylate. The primary raw material for formaldehyde production is methanol. Fluctuations in methanol prices, driven by factors such as energy prices, feedstock availability (natural gas, coal, or biomass), and geopolitical tensions, directly impact formaldehyde production costs and pricing. Additionally, changes in downstream demand from industries such as construction, automotive, textiles, and healthcare impact its pricing. Formaldehyde is subject to stringent environmental and safety regulations due to its classification as a volatile organic compound (VOC) and potential health risks. Regulatory changes, such as stricter emission standards (e.g., EPA rules or REACH regulations), increase compliance costs for producers, affecting both pricing and procurement strategies.
 

Market Drivers for Ethyl Cyanoacrylate

The market demand for Ethyl cyanoacrylate is driven by its application in medical settings for wound closure, tissue adhesion, and surgical incisions, offering a less invasive and faster-healing alternative to traditional sutures. The global rise in the number of surgical procedures boosts its demand, as medical adhesives are in high demand for efficient and safe patient care. Its utilization for structural bonding in vehicle subassemblies, electric vehicles, advanced driver-assistance systems, and filter manufacturing (e.g., bonding rubber gaskets to filter base plates) fuels its market expansion. Its usage for bonding components such as assemblies in aircraft and spacecraft manufacturing, contributes to its demand in the aerospace industry.

Its function for assembling and repairing electronic devices, circuit boards, and components propels its demand in the electronics industry. Its utilization for general-purpose bonding, sealing joints, repairing and reinforcing structures, and assembling fixtures with materials like metals, ceramics, plastics, and rubber drives its demand in the construction industry. Additionally, continuous improvements in adhesive formulations, such as enhanced environmental resistance, reduced cure times, and lower toxicity, expand the applications of ethyl cyanoacrylate.

The availability, production rate, and cost of major feedstocks such as ethyl 2-cyanoacetate and formaldehyde directly impact industrial ethyl cyanoacrylate procurement. The capital expenditure (CAPEX) required to set up an ethyl cyanoacrylate manufacturing plant covers costs such as land acquisition, civil construction, plant and machinery such as reaction kettle, stainless steel vessels, process tanks, vacuum systems, multi-stage distillation units, filters, etc., utility infrastructure, and auxiliary equipment. The operating expenditure (OPEX) for ethyl cyanoacrylate manufacturing primarily includes the costs of raw materials (such as cyanoacetic acid esters and aldehyde), consumables, utilities (power and water), labor and wages, maintenance, packaging, transportation, and overheads like administration and sales.
 

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Ethyl Cyanoacrylate manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Ethyl Cyanoacrylate manufacturing.

• Production from ethyl 2-cyanoacetate: The feedstock required for the industrial manufacturing process consists of ethyl 2-cyanoacetate and formaldehyde.

The manufacturing process of ethyl cyanoacrylate occurs via a condensation reaction. The process starts with the reaction of ethyl 2-cyanoacetate with formaldehyde in the presence of a catalyst. The catalyst used in the process is P4VP/Al2O3-SiO2, which catalyzes the formation of a methylol derivative as an intermediate. In the final step, the intermediate undergoes thermal decomposition to produce ethyl cyanoacrylate as the final product.
 

Properties of Ethyl Cyanoacrylate

Ethyl Cyanoacrylate has a molecular formula of C6H7NO2 and a molecular weight of 125.13 g/mol. It is a clear, colorless liquid chemical having a sweet, ester-like odor. It has boiling and melting points of 214 degree Celsius and -22 degree Celsius, respectively. It has a flash point of 75 degree Celsius, and its density is 1.06 g/cm3 under normal conditions. It is soluble in solvents such as toluene, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, acetone, nitromethane, etc. It decomposes on heating, degrading into formaldehyde. It emits highly toxic fumes of hydrogen cyanides along with oxides of carbon and nitrogen into the air. It can readily polymerize in moisture or any weak basic chemicals.
