Aminomethyl Propanol Prices, Demand and Supply Overview

Aminomethyl Propanol prices in Germany, the highest-cost reporting region, rose 6.0% in H1 2026, climbing from USD 3.626/KG in Q1 to USD 3.843/KG in Q2 as isobutylene and formaldehyde feedstock cost firming and recovering waterborne coatings and personal care sector procurement drove consistent buying, extending the two-quarter recovery from the Q3 2025 seasonal dip. Globally, the average rose from USD 2.702/KG in Q1 to USD 2.864/KG in Q2, a 6.0% gain. For H2 2026, a global average of USD 2.88-3.25/KG is expected, with continued support from waterborne coatings pH adjuster and personal care formulation demand and specialty amine feedstock cost firming.

Aminomethyl Propanol (AMP), commercially offered as AMP-95 at approximately 95% purity, is produced by condensation of formaldehyde with nitroethane followed by catalytic hydrogenation, yielding a clear colourless liquid with high water miscibility and strong alkalinity, and low volatility. Commercial production requires controlled reaction conditions and vacuum distillation purification to meet the low colour, low odour, and residual aldehyde specification required for sensitive waterborne coatings and personal care applications. The largest pull comes from waterborne coatings neutralisation, where AMP-95 acts as the pH-adjusting amine for acid-functional acrylic and polyurethane emulsion resins, providing effective carboxyl group neutralisation with low volatility, low VOC contribution, and minimal flash point impact versus ammonia and conventional amine neutralisers in automotive, industrial, and architectural coating formulations. Personal care and cosmetics formulation for cream, lotion, and hair care product pH adjustment, pharmaceutical suspension and emulsion formulation, and industrial cleaning product applications consume further volumes. Formaldehyde and nitroethane feedstock costs, waterborne coatings production demand, and personal care sector activity all feed into the price.

Aminomethyl Propanol Price Forecast for 2026

The balance of supply and demand for Aminomethyl Propanol through H2 2026 leans moderately firm. Waterborne coatings neutralisation and personal care sector procurement maintained consistent buying. Formaldehyde and nitroethane feedstock cost firming continued to support the specialty amine production floor.

The main upside risk is a formaldehyde or nitroethane cost surge raising AMP production economics above the forecast range. The main downside risk is weaker waterborne coatings or personal care demand softening procurement below the forecast.

Region 2026 Price Range (USD/KG) Outlook
Global Average 2.88 - 3.25 Coatings and personal care demand and feedstock support
United States 3.21 - 3.62 Waterborne coatings demand holds firm buying
China 2.18 - 2.46 Large capacity keeps China most affordable
Germany 3.87 - 4.37 Energy and feedstock costs maintain premium
India 3.02 - 3.41 Coatings and personal care demand supports middle

Key Questions Answered in the Report

Waterborne coatings neutralisation takes the largest share globally. AMP-95 acts as the pH-adjusting amine for acid-functional acrylic and polyurethane emulsion resins in automotive, industrial, and architectural coating formulations. Personal care and cosmetics pH adjustment, pharmaceutical suspension and emulsion formulation, and industrial cleaning product applications also consume significant volumes.

The Q2 2026 average was USD 3.179/KG in the United States, USD 2.162/KG in China, USD 3.843/KG in Germany, and USD 2.993/KG in India. Germany carries the highest cost due to energy and specialty amine feedstock input premiums.

The global average rose from USD 2.702/KG in Q1 to USD 2.864/KG in Q2, a gain of about 6.0%. Recovering waterborne coatings and personal care sector procurement and firmer formaldehyde feedstock costs drove the Q2 gain, extending the three-quarter recovery from the Q3 2025 dip.

Seasonal waterborne coatings and personal care procurement moderation reduced buying urgency. Formaldehyde feedstock cost softening eased the production floor. Buyers drew down contracted inventory before Q4 restocking, softening the market to USD 2.597/KG before the Q4 recovery.

The global average is expected in the USD 2.88 to 3.25/KG range for H2 2026, with support from waterborne coatings neutralisation demand, personal care sector procurement, and formaldehyde and nitroethane feedstock cost firming across Asian and European producing markets.

Germany holds the highest cost on energy and specialty amine feedstock input premiums. The United States and India hold a firm middle, and China prices lowest on large domestic production capacity and lower feedstock costs.

This report is updated monthly. For real-time pricing intelligence, contact the Expert Market Research team directly.

Prices respond mainly to formaldehyde and nitroethane feedstock cost, waterborne coatings neutralisation demand cycles, personal care sector procurement seasonality, and specialty amine purification energy cost.

The United States (Angus Chemical, Dow) and European producers hold the longest AMP production heritage, with Chinese capacity growing. Any formaldehyde cost shift or coatings sector demand change ripples across all regional markets.

Buyers can use quarterly trends and forecasts to time coatings amine neutraliser contracts around spring and autumn coatings season cycles, monitor formaldehyde cost as the primary production floor signal, and build forward coverage ahead of Q2 and Q4 peak waterborne coatings formulation demand periods.
