Germany held the top of the four markets we track for the ethylamine through the first half of the year 2026 (H1 2026), with Q2 closing at a value of USD 2.20/KG, up 1.9% from the USD 2.16 in Q1. Worldwide, the average firmed to a value of USD 1.96/KG in Q2 2026, a gain of just a 2.1% percent over the Q1 figure of USD 1.92, as the agrochemical and the surfactant demand kept the pull steady.
The ethylamine, most often the monoethylamine, is made from the ethanol and the ammonia. It is an intermediate that feeds the herbicides and the agrochemicals, the water-treatment chemicals, the surfactants, the rubber chemicals, and the pharmaceutical routes. Its cost tracks the ethanol and the ammonia economics, and its demand rides the agrochemical and the industrial cycle.
Two things move the ethylamine price the most: the ethanol and the ammonia feedstock costs, and the agrochemical and the surfactant demand. For the second half of 2026 (H2 2026), a range of an amount of USD 1.90 to 2.10/KG looks likely worldwide, supported by the dependable agrochemical and the industrial offtake.
Supply and the demand look close to balanced through the H2 2026, with the ethanol and the ammonia costs setting the direction. The agrochemical and the surfactant buyers held their procurement steady through the H1, and that looks set to hold. China's large base will likely keep it the cheapest of the four, while the India, the United States, and the Germany track higher on the freight and the local costs.
The market sits set for a firm and a measured move. The bigger question for the buyers is how the ammonia cost moves, since that has set the direction for most of the quarters we have logged alongside the ethanol.
What could push the prices higher? An ammonia or an ethanol feedstock spike, or a firmer pull from the agrochemical side. What could pull them lower? Softer surfactant demand, or the expanded low-cost Chinese capacity outpacing the demand.
| Region | 2026 Price Range (USD/KG) | Outlook |
| Global Average | 1.90 - 2.10 | Broad agrochemical demand supports the floor |
| China | 1.58 - 1.75 | Large ethanol-ammonia base keeps China cheapest |
| India | 1.84 - 2.02 | Import-parity pull and firm agrochemical demand |
| United States | 2.06 - 2.26 | Agrochemical and surfactant demand commands a premium |
| Germany | 2.16 - 2.36 | Regulated demand holds the top |

The ethylamine is a broad intermediate. It feeds the herbicides and the agrochemicals, the water-treatment chemicals, the surfactants, the rubber chemicals, and the pharmaceutical routes, with the anhydrous monoethylamine grade carrying most of the volume.
In Q2 2026, it averaged a value of USD 1.63/KG in China, USD 2.10/KG in the US, USD 2.20/KG in Germany, and USD 1.89/KG in India, on a delivered basis. Germany sat at the top and China priced lowest.
The global average moved from a value of USD 1.84/KG in the Q1 2025 to the USD 1.87 by the Q4, a gain of about 1.6%. The broad agrochemical and the surfactant demand held the market firm, with only a shallow Q3 dip.
The steady, broad-based demand across the agrochemicals, the water treatment, and the surfactants kept the market firm, with the ethanol and the ammonia costs holding near their range.
We expect a global average in a range of an amount of USD 1.90 to 2.10/KG for the H2 2026, resting on the dependable agrochemical and surfactant offtake and the ammonia costs staying near their current range.
Germany sits at the top on the regulated demand and the import-linked freight. The United States holds a firm second on its agrochemical and surfactant pull. India occupies the import-parity middle, and China prices lowest on its large ethanol and ammonia base.
The ethanol and the ammonia feedstock costs matter most, followed by the agrochemical, the surfactant, and the industrial demand cycles that keep the demand base broad and steady.
China holds the largest production capacity on its integrated ethanol and ammonia base, with the United States, Germany, and India hosting the other established producers. The import-reliant regions carry a freight-adjusted premium over the Asian offers.
