Sulfates Price Trend for the First Half of 2022

The salts, peroxides and acid derivatives of sulfates or sulphate ions are commonly used in the surfactant industries. The sulfates ions are obtained via sulfuric acid, metal oxide and even palm/coconut oil. Hence, the market prices of the above-mentioned feedstock govern the price trends for sulfates. The Russian invasion of Ukraine unleashed a staggering worldwide energy crisis.

The high crude oil prices, trade restrictions, heightened freight costs and journey time caused the prices of commodities to rise in the market giving way to double-digit inflation. In Europe, the price of feedstock sulfuric acid averaged 230 USD/MT FOB Hamburg while in the USA it averaged 264 USD/MT. These raised quotations were further supported by the strong downstream demand.

The prices of feedstock palm oil skyrocketed during the said period due to the absence of sunflower oil in the global market. With the Indonesian government announcing a ban on palm oil exports coupled with the floods in Malaysia, the supply lines for palm oil constricted further. The prices of the Bursa Malaysia derivative palm oil averaged a staggering 1942 USD/MT on March 1, 2022.

However, the prices relaxed towards the end of the second quarter with the removal of the export ban averaging 1554.50 USD/MT in June. Hence, owing to the inflated feedstock prices and robust demand from the personal and home-care industries the price trends for sulfates stood firm throughout the said period.

About:

sulfates are polyatomic anions. They are found in nature as well as synthesised for industry. They can be found in the products of everyday use. Also, sulfates are the salts and esters of sulphuric acid, from which they can be produced. They can also be obtained from coconut or palm oil.

These compounds play a significant role in many industries because they are good emulsifiers, detergents, and foaming agents. Further, they are surfactants and their addition to products make them more effective cleaners. Sodium lauryl and sodium laureth sulphate are the most common sulphate-based ingredients in personal care products.
