Methylpyrrolidone or N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is an organic chemical compound that finds a wide range of applications in various industries. It is widely used as a reaction intermediate in the preparation of various pharmaceutical drugs. Moreover, the compound also finds its application in natural and synthetic gas purification and gas desulfurization. It is often utilized in the production of plastics, resins, and polymers, such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), etc., due to its stability at high temperatures. Additionally, it is also employed as a solvent in paint and coating strippers, degreasers, engineering plastic coatings, and industrial cleaning.

The market of Methylpyrrolidone is largely led by its various industrial applications because the compound is highly polar and miscible with most of the organic solvents that contribute to its demand as a sought-after commodity. Its wide usage as an intermediate in the manufacture of various pharmaceuticals and agricultural chemicals further promotes its demand in the medical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical industries. Moreover, its employment as an industrial solvent in paint and coating removal, plastic coatings, polymers, and industrial/domestic cleaning remarkably accentuates its demand in the paints & coatings, plastics, polymers, and manufacturing industries.

Additionally, its utilization in recovering pure hydrocarbons in petrochemical processing further enhances its demand in the petroleum and oil & gas industries. Furthermore, several factors influence industrial methylpyrrolidone procurement, such as the availability of raw materials (methylamine, etc.), cost and pricing, compliance with pharmaceutical regulations, quality standards, technological advancements, environmental considerations, sustainability practices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, safety standards, etc.

Raw Material for Methylpyrrolidone Production

According to the Methylpyrrolidone manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Methylpyrrolidone production include γ-Butyrolactone- Methylamine.

Manufacturing Process of Methylpyrrolidone

The extensive Methylpyrrolidone production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

  1. Production from Methylamine: This method of production is initiated by the exothermic reaction of γ-butyrolactone (C4H6O2) (produced practically exclusively from 1,4-butanediol) with methylamine (CH3NH2), with their mole ratio usually 1 to 1.2–1.3 at temperatures of 250-400 °C and pressure 60-120 bar in adiabatically operated tubular reactors, which results in the formation of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or Methylpyrrolidone as the final product. Further, the product obtained is depressurized and separated through distillation to obtain a high yield (97%) of Methylpyrrolidone.

Methylpyrrolidone is a colorless yellowish liquid with an amine-like odor that is miscible with water and most organic solvents. The compound is hygroscopic and is also sensitive to light. Its molecular formula is C5H9NO, and its molar mass is 99.13 g/mol. Moreover, the compound is also known as 1-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone or N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP). The melting point of the compound is -23 °C, and its boiling point is 202 °C. Additionally, the density of the compound is 1.033 kg/l. The compound is non-corrosive and is chemically and thermally stable. It also catalyzes the synthesis of carboxylic acid chlorides. The IUPAC name of the compound is 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one.
