Feedstock for Isopropyl Amine

The direct raw materials required in the production process are isopropyl alcohol and ammonia. Thus, the fluctuations in the prices and availability of these raw materials directly affect the overall supply chain of Isopropyl amine.

Various factors determine the prices and availability of isopropyl alcohol. The demand for isopropyl alcohol from various downstream industries and sectors, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care, and industrial applications, influences its prices. The fluctuations in the upstream crude oil and propylene prices impact the prices and production of isopropyl alcohol. The surge or decline in global freight costs, trade disruptions, weather conditions such as storms, and geopolitical tensions in major producers affect the overall supply of isopropyl alcohol.

Ammonia is also an important raw material utilized to produce isopropyl amine. The prices of ammonia are majorly affected by fluctuations in the cost of key feedstocks, mainly natural gas, as well as geopolitical tensions in major natural gas-producing regions. Additionally, factors such as reduced export availability and high demand for ammonia-based fertilizers in India, one of the largest importers, further strain supply. Persistent adverse weather conditions, such as hurricanes and thunderstorms, also raise concerns regarding the stability of the supply chain.
 

Market Drivers for Isopropyl Amine

The market demand for Isopropyl amine is majorly driven by its application in various downstream industries and sectors such as agrochemical, pharmaceuticals, industrial applications, cosmetics and personal care products, metalworking, and lubricants. Its utilization in the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and various medications elevates its demand in the pharmaceutical industry.

Also, the Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) for the compound includes expenses like the initial setup cost for the equipment and machinery required for the manufacturing process, such as a stirred tank reactor (STR) or a continuous flow reactor, fractional distillation column, shell and tube heat exchanger, cooling tower, and storage tanks. Other costs, such as plant construction and technological investments, are also included in the CAPEX for Isopropyl amine. Additionally, the Operational Expenditure (OPEX) for the chemical consists of the cost of raw materials (isopropyl alcohol and ammonia), labor costs, utilities, maintenance and repair costs, and waste management.
 

Manufacturing Process

This report comprises a thorough value chain evaluation for Isopropyl amine manufacturing and consists of an in-depth production cost analysis revolving around industrial Isopropyl amine manufacturing.

• Production via catalytic amination reaction: The feedstock required in the industrial manufacturing process consists of isopropyl alcohol and ammonia.

The production process of isopropyl amine occurs via the catalytic amination reaction. The process is initiated by the chemical reaction between the corresponding alcohol and ammonia in the presence of a catalyst. In this reaction, isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol is reacted with ammonia in the presence of a metal catalyst such as nickel or copper to produce isopropyl amine as the final product.
 

Properties of Isopropyl Amine

Isopropyl Amine is a clear, colorless chemical compound, having the molecular formula of C3H9N and a molecular weight of 59.11 g/mol. It is a combustible and flammable liquid with a melting and boiling point of -76 °C and 32.5 °C, respectively. It is less dense than water, with a density of 0.73 g/cm³ at a standard temperature of 25 °C. It is a soluble liquid that is miscible in water and alcohol. It is highly soluble in chemical solvents, such as acetone. Also, it is soluble in benzene, chloroform, and ether. It is stable under normal conditions; however, it is combustible in nature, and its autoignition temperature is 400 °C. It decomposes upon heating to release toxic fumes of nitrogen oxides in the air.
