Plasticizers Prices: Latest Price, Pricing, News, Market Analysis
Plasticizers prices rose sharply in Q1 2025 as a result of the sharp rise in crude oil prices and improved downstream demand. The price of dioctyl phthalate averaged 1875 USD/MT towards the end of first sector. The increase in upstream value prices and the strengthening domestic market demand were the main factors influencing this price shift.

Nonphthalate plasticizers are not based on phthalic acid, and have a different chemical structure and toxicological profile. These include terephthalates (the most common is dioctyl terephthalate [DOTP]), epoxy, aliphatics, trimellitates, polymerics, phosphates, and others.

- Are there phthalates and non-phthalate plasticizers in the coastal environment of Korea?
- Conclusions This is the first nation-wide survey of phthalates and non-phthalate plasticizers in the coastal environment of Korea. Phthalates and alternative plasticizers were detected in all sediment samples from the coastal zone of Korea. DEHP and DEHT were the dominant phthalates and NPPs, respectively.
- Which countries manufacture poly vinyl chloride phthalate based plasticizers?
- Korea, India, Southeast Asian countries, Russia, USA, etc Based on the price competitiveness of Phthalic Anhydride (PA), the base raw material for Plasticizers, OCI produces major Poly Vinyl Chloride phthalate-based Plasticizers (DINP, TINIM, and DINA).
- How much does dioctyl phthalate cost in India?
- In India, the price of dioctyl phthalate ( a commonly used plasticizer) averaged 1681 USD/MT CFR JNPT during the first quarter. The prices saw an increase of 5% during the second quarter in India due to the strong demand from construction and automobile sectors. Europe
- What is plasticizer phthalate based?
- Plasticizer is a chemical substance capable of making plastics softer, and phthalate is one of the most common materials to achieve it. However, phthalate-based plasticizer has often been blamed for disrupting the hormone system and thus been restricted from toys and furniture.
- How are phthalates and NPPs distributed along Korea's Coast?
- The spatial distribution of phthalates and NPPs along Korea's coast is governed by harbor-zone activities and sedimentary organic carbon. Significant correlations were observed among the compounds of phthalates and NPPs in sediments, suggesting similar sources and environmental behavior in coastal environments.
- Are phthalate plasticizers contaminating the environment?
- DEHA and DEHT were detected in almost all sediment samples (detection rate: 98%), also suggesting major contamination by non-phthalate plasticizers. The occurrence of phthalates in the environment is related to production and consumption in industrial markets ( Gao and Wen, 2016 ).
