MA (Mono MethylAmine) Market Analysis
Methylamine(chemical formula CH₃NH₂) is a colorless gas with a strong ammonia smell and iseasily soluble in water and ethanol. It is the simplest organic amine and isoften stored in the form of anhydrous gas. It can also be transported and usedas an aqueous solution or methanol solution. In industry, monomethylamine ismainly produced by the gas phase reaction of methanol and anhydrous ammoniaunder the action of a catalyst. It can also be co-produced with dimethylamineand trimethylamine. Because its molecular structure contains active amino andmethyl groups, monomethylamine can be used as an important intermediate for thesynthesis of more complex compounds and is widely used in medicine, pesticides,dyes, rubber additives, and surfactants.
Themonomethylamine market has the characteristics of low technical barriers butstable and diversified downstream demand. As a basic chemical raw material, itcan be used as an end product (such as a bactericide or buffer) or in the synthesisof more complex amine compounds, quaternary ammonium salts or activepharmaceutical ingredients. In the pesticide industry, monomethylamine can beused to synthesize herbicides (such as promethazine) and insecticides (such asisothioate-methyl); in the pharmaceutical field, it is used to manufactureantibiotics, local anesthetics and psychotropic drugs; in cosmetics and finechemicals, it is used as a surfactant and pH regulator raw material. Benefitingfrom these stable downstream applications, the overall market demand growthtrend of monomethylamine is relatively stable.

Global MA (MonoMethyl Amine) Market: Competitive Landscape
Accordingto LookWhole Insight, the global production capacity of monomethylamine ismainly concentrated in China, India, the United States and Europe. TheAsia-Pacific region is currently the world's largest consumer market for nailglue. China is the world's major producer and exporter of monomethylamine, witha complete integrated industrial chain from raw materials methanol and ammoniato monomethylamine. Due to the developed pharmaceutical and pesticidemanufacturing industries, India has strong domestic demand for monomethylamine,forming a market structure of self-sufficiency and partial imports; the UnitedStates and Europe are dominated by multinational chemical companies (such asEastman Chemical, BASF, and Balaji Amines), and their products are moreconcentrated in high value-added and pharmaceutical-grade uses. The globalmonomethylamine production capacity shows the characteristics of"Asia-led, European and American high-end markets leading". The topfive companies in the global market share are Eastman Chemical, Belle Chemical,BASF, Hualu Hengsheng, and LUXI Group, which together account for about 55% ofthe market share.
