4-Decanol Market Challenge

Fluctuating Raw Material prices:

Price fluctuations in raw materials used in making 4-Decanol are a significant concern for the 4-Decanol global market. Synthetic and natural methods are used to produce 4-decanol. Petroleum-derived feedstock is the primary source in the synthetic method, while palm, palm kernel and coconut oil are the primary sources in the natural method. The price of petroleum in the synthetic process is always determined by the price of crude oil per barrel, which is volatile and unpredictable. According to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2021 report, crude oil prices have fluctuated quite frequently in recent years. For instance, the Brent crude oil price decreased from US$52.39/bbl in 2015 to US$43.73/bbl in 2016. Then it increased from US$54.19/bbl in 2017 to US$71.31/bbl in 2018 and then decreased to US$41.84/bbl in 2020. This results in a considerable increase in product prices, which drives up manufacturing costs and reduces manufacturers' profit margins. Thus, this price fluctuation limits the 4-Decanol Market growth.
