Nonyl Phenol is an organic compound of the family of alkylphenols. It is widely known as a chemical additive in chemical, petrochemical, and other commercial processes. It is extensively utilized in household products, cosmetics, insecticides, and cleaners. It belongs to the group of alkyl phenols that serve as a solubilizer and additive in the production of detergent varieties that can be used for both household and industrial applications.

It helps in improving the texture of the prepared product, and can be utilized in the production of lubricants, as well. It acts as an additive and is used in formulating lubricating oils, waxes, and other petrochemical varieties on a large scale. It is added in the formulation of laundry and dish detergents in the chemical industry. Moreover, the compound is also utilized in the production of its derivatives with other chemical applications on a large scale.

The market for Nonyl Phenol is majorly driven by its demand in the downstream chemical and petrochemical industries. Its application as a chemical emulsifier in the production of lubricants and waxy products helps in boosting its demand in the petrochemical industry. Moreover, its usage as a chemical additive or as a solubilizer in the formulation of detergents and cleansers fuels its demand in the chemical manufacturing, household cleaning, and industrial cleaning industries. Additionally, its utilization in synthesizing its derivatives, especially phenol varieties, helps amplify its demand in the overall chemical market. Additionally, it is also used as a humectant in the manufacture of pesticides and certain antioxidants, which further accentuates its demand in the agrochemical and cosmetics industries. Furthermore, the availability and cost of production of nonyl phenol’s feedstock (2-nonene, phenol, etc.), nonyl phenol market prices, distribution (including trading and shipping), logistics, etc., are some of the elements that influence industrial nonyl phenol procurement.

Raw Material for Nonyl Phenol Production

According to the Nonyl Phenol manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Nonyl Phenol production include 1-nonene - 2-nonene – Phenol – Sulfuric Acid.

Manufacturing Process of Nonyl Phenol

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

• Production by Alkylation Process: In this process, a mixture of nonene compounds, such as 1-nonene and 2-nonene, is reacted with phenol in the presence of sulfuric acid, which results in the formation of nonyl phenol as the final product.

Nonyl Phenol is a corrosive chemical with a chemical formula of C15H24O. It comprises fifteen carbon atoms, twenty-four hydrogen atoms, along one oxygen atom, and its molecular weight is 220.35 g/mol. Nonyl Phenol is an organic chemical that is derived from a mixture of nonene on a large scale.

It belongs to the group of phenols with a pale yellow-colored liquid. Its melting and boiling point is measured approximately at 42 °C and 317 °C, respectively. Its flash point is measured at 113 °C.
