Isopentyl Alcohol Price Trend for the Second Half of 2023

Isopentyl alcohol prices saw constant oscillations during the second half of 2023. The food, beverage, and alcohol industry supported the isopentyl alcohol market well during the early months of the third quarter; however, the situation quickly started reversing as the final quarter began.

Isopentyl Alcohol Price Trends

This price trend had a very close resemblance to the price trend of its feedstock, isobutylene. The crude oil prices also influenced the market run by impacting the upstream, production, and downstream costs. The freight disturbances because of the Red Sea issues caused international trade to slump after October, which pushed the isopentyl alcohol price graph down even faster.

Analyst Insight

According to Procurement Resource, the Isopentyl Alcohol price trends are likely to waver in a restricted manner going forward; much improvement is not anticipated, given the current market dynamics.

Isopentyl Alcohol Price Trend for the First Half of 2023

The price trend for Isopentyl Alcohol mimic that of its feedstock, isobutylene. Prices started on a strong, positive note in the first quarter of 2023. The high demands from consuming food, beverage, pharma, and chemical industries caused the prices to rise. Further, the production ramped up as the production costs stabilized with reduced freight and energy costs.

As the second quarter approached, the inventories started filling up, and demands started to decline. Hence, in the international markets, Isopentyl Alcohol prices started wavering towards the lower side in the second quarter. The existing inventories were well capable of catering to the existing demands. Overall, mixed price trend were observed in the Isopentyl Alcohol market, with prices mostly rising in the first quarter and declining in the second quarter.
