2. China Ethylene Oxide Market
At present, manufacturers can adjust the production proportion of ethylene oxide (EO) and ethylene glycol so as to
achieve optimal economic benefit by adopting cooperative production devices for producing ethylene oxide and
ethylene glycol. Subjecting to ethylene oxide’s characteristics and the restrictions of storage and transportation, so
products must sell out timely with little inventory.
As for EO downstream industries in 2012, ethylene glycol accounted for 49% of market shares, non-ionic surface
active agent 20%, water reducing agent 11%, polyether 7%, ethanolamine 8%, glycol ether 3%, choline and others
accounted for about 2% of market shares.
Consumption characteristics of ethylene oxide in China: 1) the production volume of ethylene glycol is far higher
than that in Japan and America, while the demand for high value-added EO downstream products are strong,
because there is no abundant supply in China, so it mainly depends on import; 2) as for varieties, there are more
than 5000 varieties of EO downstream products while only about 300 varieties in China. China just starts to
research and develop EO varieties in the sphere of medicine, spice, dyestuff, coating and special chemical fiber oil;
3) ethylene oxide is short of supply in the long run, objectively, which restrict the development of downstream
industry. Currently, the scale of most ethanolamine devices are 40～80kt/a in foreign countries, but in China the
scale of most devices are less than 20kt/a. At the same time, there are many weaknesses such as backward
technology process, low quality, high cost, weak competitiveness and insufficient supply in China.
