Asia
Ammonium persulfate is primarily produced by the electrochemical oxidation of ammonium sulfate using sulphuric acid as a catalyst. Therefore, the price trajectories of both ammonium persulfate and its feedstock ammonium sulfate show a close alliance with each other.
Consumption by the downstream polymer industries greatly influenced the price trajectory for ammonium persulfate during the said period. Since the feedstock ammonium sulfate prices fluctuated at the lower end of the curve, ammonium persulfate did not have much upstream cost support for the said duration. The consuming sector was also underwhelming for the most part. Therefore, ammonium persulfate prices were found to be fluctuating in a confined manner during Q1’24. Overall, dull market sentiments were found for ammonium sulfate throughout the said period.
Europe
Ammonium sulfate price trend in European markets resembled its Asian counterparts during the said time period. The economic and industrial activities in the region were already struggling as the long stretched Russian war was taking a serious toll on the region’s economy. Amidst all this, another war front opened in the Middle East with an escalation of the Israel and Hamas conflict. Thereby, the supply chains crumbled even more for European suppliers. Unsustainable upstream costs amidst a gloomy geopolitical outlook took a serious hit on the market’s confidence. Stakeholders acquired a wait-and-watch approach. Conclusively, an overall weak market performance was witnessed.
North America
The American market situation for ammonium persulfate was not much different from other major global markets since the price outlook struggled to sustain its momentum here as well. Sluggishness in the international markets also pulled the prices in the American markets down. The rise in the crude and petroleum prices did push the upstream costs marginally; however, a weaker demand dynamic dominated the market. Overall, a tepid price trajectory was witnessed for ammonium persulfate during Q1’24.
Analyst Insight
According to Procurement Resource, the current sluggishness in the global ammonium persulfate market is likely to persist in the coming months as well since the current inventory stock is sufficient for estimated demands. A similar price performance is expected in the coming quarter as well.
