DMAPA Price Trends and Forecast Report 2025 Edition

The EMR pricing report on DMAPA provides insights into the top 10 leading trading countries and regions.

In 2024, Dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) price trends witnessed fluctuations, with factors such as demand-supply dynamics, raw material price fluctuations, and macroeconomic policies contributing to this. Different price trends were observed in major markets, North America, Asia-Pacific, and Europe, reflecting diverse business and trade environments. In 2025, global DMAPA prices are anticipated to remain relatively stable, with moderate fluctuations driven by steady downstream demand from key industries and stable production.

In China, ex-works prices of DMAPA declined in the last quarter of 2024 compared to the previous year, with factors such as weakening downstream demand, oversupply in the domestic market, and easing feedstock costs exerting downward pressure on prices. Additionally, a surge in competition from regional manufacturers in China, expanding their presence in late 2024, also contributed to this price decline.

DMAPA Price Forecast

In 2024, Dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) price outlook exhibited primarily a downward trend, with a modest recovery observed in late 2024. In China, a consistent decline in prices with minor short-term fluctuations was seen from January to September, owing to variation in input costs and a fall in consumption. While stability in prices was observed in India, the USA observed moderate growth in the second half of 2024. In October 2024, prices recovered in key regions, with increases recorded in Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe due to rising demand from key end-use industries and higher raw material costs.

For 2025, prices are expected to show mixed trends across regions. Factors affecting the DMAPA price forecast for 2025 in North America include demand from the personal care and water treatment sectors, which could lead to modest price increases and stability. However, subdued demand and improved efficiency are expected to exert downward pressure on prices. In Asia Pacific, price stability is expected to be seen in China and India following the recovery of prices at the end of 2024, while higher exports and an intensified competitive landscape might push prices downward. While short-term volatility is expected in Europe, it is impacted by raw materials costs and economic demand.

Global Trade and Supply Chain Implications

In 2024, supply chain disruptions and trade routes had an impact on DMAPA prices. In the second half of 2024, adverse weather conditions and geopolitical tensions led to supply shortages and transit delays, aiding in price fluctuations in key regions.

However, despite international tensions and logistical issues at the end of 2024, DMAPA prices remained stable due to steady demand from key downstream industries such as personal care and water treatment. Its role in adhesives and as a surfactant also drove consumption across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.

Feedstock Analysis

Changes in key feedstocks, such as acrylonitrile, dimethylamine, and propylene oxide (which plays a crucial role in synthesizing DMAPA), significantly impacted global DMAPA pricing trends in 2024. In the second half of 2024, short-term fluctuations in upstream costs in North America caused volatility in DMAPA pricing despite stable demand. Additionally, the downtrend in DMAPA prices in China was primarily driven by lower feedstock costs, which reduced production costs.

By October, rising feedstock stocks, particularly of ethylene oxide, pushed prices up, leading to a price recovery in Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific. However, a decline in raw material costs in Europe by the end of the year, along with stabilizing production trends, exerted downward pressure and resulted in softer pricing in the region. In conclusion, the price trend of DMAPA is influenced mainly by key input costs, while economic factors such as demand and supply, supply chain efficiency, and the global business environment also play a significant role in shaping overall pricing trends.

Demand and Supply Outlook for DMAPA

In 2025, the demand forecast for DMAPA is anticipated to show moderate growth, driven by strong consumption across the personal care, water treatment, and agrochemical industries. Emerging markets such as India, Southeast Asia, and Latin America are expected to contribute significantly to this growth, owing to ongoing urbanization and industrial development. An increasing focus on sustainable practices and green chemistry is also set to enhance DMAPA adoption, particularly in North America and Europe, where eco-friendly processes in the cosmetics and chemical sectors are gaining prominence.

On the supply side, production capacities are likely to remain stable, with some moderate expansions expected in Asia-Pacific. However, volatility and availability of feedstock prices, especially propylene oxide, and tightening environmental regulations in Europe may pose occasional supply challenges. While manufacturers in China and India are expected to maintain steady output, possible capacity reductions in the European Union and the United States of America could constrain regional supply, particularly under heightened emissions regulations and rising energy costs.
