In 2025, domestic and foreign phenol and ketone enterprises will be in a long-term loss of profits. Devices in South Korea, Taiwan, China, Saudi Arabia and other countries and regions will be overhauled. In addition, domestic acetone prices will fall in the second quarter, which will inevitably attract the attention of exporters and boost the year-on-year growth of export volume, up 41.28%.
In 2025, the destinations for China’s acetone exports will be relatively dispersed, and there will be significant changes in the main destinations. In 2024, the majority of China’s acetone exports will be to Japan, while this year’s exports to Thailand will occupy the top position. According to the statistics of customs export data, from January to July 2025, China’s acetone exports to 48 countries and regions, accounting for 58.05% of the total exports to Thailand, Japan, Peru and Taiwan, China, accounting for half of the country. In addition, a total of 44 products were exported to other regions and countries, accounting for 41.95% of the total export volume.
Expected future export of acetone in 2025: Both South Korea and India have newly added phenol ketone units put into operation, thus increasing international export competition pressure. Some countries may have early inventory clearance operations in the fourth quarter, which will inevitably affect export prices. With the gradual increase in domestic acetone supply and the low price, seizing international market share has become a necessary path for acetone exports.
