There are few diisopropylbiphenyl manufacturers in the world and industry competition has eased.
Diisopropylbiphenyl (DIPB) is a high-purity single synthetic aromatic hydrocarbon compound. It has the high thermal stability, excellent fluidity and heat transfer performance necessary for synthetic thermal oil high-temperature applications (Max. 350°C), as well as unique The performance of preventing solid particles and coke scale can meet the low-pressure safe operation requirements of liquid heating systems. At the same time, as an aromatic synthetic compound, diisopropylbiphenyl is colorless and odorless, has suitable viscosity, high boiling point, and is difficult to volatilize. It also has good wettability for dyes and coatings, and can increase compatibility. It is also known as It is increasingly used in dyes, coatings and other fields. In addition, diisopropylbiphenyl, as a kind of biphenyl derivative, can be mixed with triisopropylbiphenyl to form a new type of dye solvent for carbonless copy paper, which is colorless, odorless, has suitable viscosity, and is effective against dyes. It has the characteristics of strong dissolving ability, cheap price, low production cost, easy product availability, reliable technology, etc. It can be used to prepare carbonless copy paper microgel and pressure-sensitive copy materials.
At present, in industrial production, biphenyl, propylene, etc. are often used as raw materials to react under the action of a catalyst to generate diisopropylbiphenyl. However, the different selection of catalysts will cause certain differences in the purity of the diisopropylbiphenyl product. Diisopropylbiphenyl is mainly used in synthetic thermal oil, dyes, coatings, carbonless copy paper microcapsules, capacitor insulating oil and other fields. Based on this, the upstream of the diisopropylbiphenyl industry chain is in the field of raw and auxiliary materials such as biphenyl, propylene, and catalysts, and the downstream is in the fields of synthetic thermal oil, dyes, coatings, carbonless copy paper microcapsules, insulating oil, and other fields.
The released “2023-2028 China Diisopropylbiphenyl Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospects Forecast Report” shows that due to The application field of diisopropylbiphenyl is relatively narrow, and its main application field-synthetic heat transfer oil product types are diverse, which has a certain impact on the development of the diisopropylbiphenyl heat transfer oil market, resulting in the diisopropylbiphenyl heat transfer oil market. The market volume of benzene thermal oil and its upstream raw material diisopropylbiphenyl is small, and the overall development trend is relatively sluggish. Investors and related companies are not very enthusiastic about entering the diisopropylbiphenyl industry. Existing companies are expanding their production scale. There is no strong will, which in turn leads to fewer diisopropylbiphenyl manufacturers in the world. The main company is the German Lütger Company. The company also uses its own diisopropylbiphenyl for its heat transfer oil products, and some of them are exported to the outside world. Sale.
Investment analysts pointed out that with the development of China’s biphenyl industry, some Chinese companies have mastered the production of diisopropylbiphenyl technology and have industrialized production capabilities. Representative companies include Jiangsu Zhongneng Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. Generally speaking, due to the small market size, there are few diisopropylbiphenyl manufacturers in the world, the scale of production capacity is extremely limited, and industry competition is relatively relaxed.
