Decanoic Acid Methyl Ester Production Cost Breakup By Esterification Reaction

Details: Germany - based plant Q1 2024  | From $ USD

This report entails the detailed cost evaluation of decanoic acid methyl ester production by esterification reaction. The preparation of methyl decanoate is prepared by the chemical reaction between capric acid, which is also known as decanoic acid, with methanol. The reaction leads to the esterification of methanol and results in the production of methyl decanoate ester, or decanoic acid methyl ester, as the final product.

Feedstocks for Decanoic Acid Methyl Ester

Decanoic acid methyl ester is a chemical ester obtained by using decanoic acid and methyl alcohol as its primary feedstocks. The procurement of decanoic acid methyl ester and its feedstocks is influenced by different factors that are related to its market dynamics. Some of the crucial factors, such as the market prices, cost of production, activities in the upstream market, availability of its raw materials (including coconut, natural gas, etc.), and commercial activities, play a vital role in its procurement on a large scale. Moreover, other factors, such as the demand from the downstream industries (including chemical, pharmaceutical, plastic, cosmetics, and other industries), along with stability in the supply chain, logistics, and governmental policies altogether, can influence its overall procurement in the global chemical industry.
