HEAVY ALKYL BENZENE PRODUCTION COST ANALYSIS REPORT

Heavy Alkyl Benzene Market Overview:

The market for heavy alkyl benzene is experiencing steady growth, driven by the extensive demand for HAB in the production of linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LABS) which is widely used as a surfactant in detergents. The growing demand for household and industrial detergents, especially in developing countries, significantly drives the market growth. For instance, in October 2023, at the SEPAWA Congress in Berlin from October 25 to 27, BASF presented the company’s latest solutions for home care and industrial & institutional (I&I) cleaning and personal care markets. These offers are part of BASF’s Care Chemical Initiative Care 360° solutions for sustainable life, the division’s cross-business and holistic approach to cover all topics impacting the future of key markets and industries: sustainability, digitalization, innovation, and new approaches to working together. BASF shares booths 137-139,154-155, 142, and 151-152 with its European sales organization, BTC Europe.

Heavy Alkyl Benzene Market Trends:

Expanding Lubricants Sectors

The rising use of HAB as a lubricant base oil in several applications such as automotive, marine, and industrial lubricants is acting as a major growth-inducing factor in the market. The expansion of these sectors, especially in regions with growing industrial activities and vehicle usage is propelling the demand for HAB. For instance, in March 2023, ExxonMobil invested nearly INR 900 crore (USD110 million) to build a lubricant manufacturing plant at the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation’s Isambe Industrial Area in Raigad.

Similarly, in October 2023, Chevron’s subsidiary and state-led Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) launched the US energy giant’s lubricant brand Caltex in the Indian market. The long-term agreement with Chevron Brands International LLC, a unit of Chevron, allows HPCL to license, market, manufacture, and distribute Caltex-branded lubricants in the country.

Growth in Chemical Industries

The rising chemical industry is boosting the consumption of HAB, especially in the Asia Pacific region such as China and India. These regions are witnessing rapid industrialization and urbanization which is leading to increased demand for chemicals where HAB is used as an intermediate. According to Invest India, exports of chemical and chemical products (excluding pharmaceutical products and fertilizers) contributed 11.7% of total exports in the year 2021-22 compared to 12.9% in the year 2020-21. It contributed 10.8% of total exports in the year 2022-23 (end up two September 2022). The CAGR for the export of total chemicals and chemical products (excluding pharmaceutical and fertilizer products) during the period 2017-18 to 2021-22 was 13.86% while the CAGR for total national exports was 12.62%.

Latest Industry News:

  • In July 2023, Cepsa Quimica announced building the world’s largest first plant in Huelva for the sustainable production of isopropyl alcohol (IPA), a product used in hydroalcoholic gels as well as in other industries such as the medical-pharmaceutical, electronic and automotive industries.
  • In November 2023, KBR announced the signing of a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Korea-based ISU Chemical for a commercial ammonia cracking project to be based in Ulsan, Republic of Korea. The project will employ KBR’s innovative technology, H2ACT, which has rapidly emerged as the industry’s leading ammonia cracking technology.
