Butynediol industry analysis: wide application field and relatively high market demand

2025-03-26

Butynediol is widely used in synthetic plastics, fibers, coatings, resins, pharmaceuticals, etc. Global economic growth and industrial development will drive the demand for butynediol.

Discovery and Extraction: Butynediol was first discovered by German chemist Paul Lebeau in 1894. He prepared ethylene glycol by reacting vinyl chloride with sodium hydroxide, followed by a dehydration reaction to obtain butynediol.

Industrial production: The industrial production of butynediol began in the early 20th century. Initially, butynediol was mainly used in coal mine explosives and synthetic rubber. The current status of the butynediol industry points out that in the 1930s, the German chemical company BASF began large-scale production of butynediol, and gradually developed in the following decades.

Application expansion: As time goes by, the application areas of butynediol continue to expand. It is widely used in synthetic plastics, synthetic fibers, coatings, resins, solvents, dyes, pharmaceuticals and other fields. Butynediol plays an important role in the production of polyacetylene and other polymers.

Technological improvements: With the continuous improvement of chemical processes and technologies, the production efficiency and quality of butynediol have been improved. The introduction of new catalysts, reaction conditions and process flows has made the production of butynediol more efficient and environmentally friendly.

 Market competition: There is a certain amount of market competition in the butynediol industry. Major manufacturers enhance their competitiveness by improving production efficiency, reducing costs, improving product quality, and conducting technological innovation. In addition, environmental regulations and safety standards also play a certain role in constraining competitors in the industry.

Technological Development: The production technology of butynediol is constantly developing and improving. New catalysts and production methods are introduced to improve production efficiency, reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. At the same time, the emergence of some substitutes and new materials may also have an impact on the butynediol market.

In general, butynediol is an international trade product, and the trend of globalization has promoted cooperation and trade activities among multinational companies. Factors such as international market price fluctuations, tariff policies and trade barriers will affect the trade of butynediol. Jiayuan invested in a factory with an annual output of 2,000 tons of propynyl alcohol and a co-production of 5,000 tons of butynediol. On this basis, Jiayuan still needs to keep up with international trends, do a good job in market research and risk prevention awareness, and strive to open up new development directions!
