Isopentyl Alcohol Price Trend for the First Half of 2023
The price trends 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 trends were observed in the Isopentyl Alcohol market, with prices mostly rising in the first quarter and declining in the second quarter.
