Propylene Prices December 2023
Product | Category | Region | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Propylene | Feedstock | Mexico | 964 USD/MT |
| Propylene | Feedstock | South Korea | 801 USD/MT |
| Propylene | Feedstock | Germany | 833 USD/MT |
| Propylene | Feedstock | Saudi Arabia | 605 USD/MT |
The price of propylene in Mexico for Q4 2023 reached 964 USD/MT in December. Mexico's economic activities were affected by high inflation and a slowdown in the manufacturing sector, impacting the operations of the chemical industry. The propylene polymer grade CFR Manzanillo in Mexico witnessed a 43% increase in prices from the previous quarter, with a -7% price decline in the second half of the quarter as compared to the first half.
The price trend for propylene in South Korea reached 801 in Q4 of 20223. The market witnessed a moderate supply, which was ample enough to satisfy domestic and international demand, but the demand was low from downstream plastic industries.
In Germany, propylene market prices reached 833 USD/MT in Q4 of 2023. During October, the market stood out with a slight increase in prices despite low demand from the downstream propylene glycol sector, driven by expensive imports from overseas and the influence of an optimistic market situation.
Saudi Arabia’s propylene prices accounted for 605 USD/MT in December 2023. There was a notable 6.7% decrease in prices during November. The decline in prices was parallel to the drop in crude oil prices, which played a crucial role in driving market growth.

- There is a rise in the employment of propylene in the automotive sector due to its enhanced chemical and heat resistance properties. It is used in bumpers, chemical tanks, cable insulation, and gas cans. It serves as a thermoplastic binder component for natural fiber composites. It is also used with a variety of vehicle applications, such as door panels, console, seatbacks, and trunk liners. Apart from this, manufacturers are adopting propylene to decrease the weight of vehicles to make them more economically appealing while lowering the carbon footprint. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of vehicles among the masses worldwide due to rapid urbanization is catalyzing the demand for polypropylene. According to the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (ACEA), around 85.4 Million motor vehicles were produced across the globe in 2022, an increase of 5.7% as compared to 2021.
- Propylene finds applications in the construction sector. It is thermally stabilized, ultraviolet (UV)-resistant, acid rain-resistant, and has a non-reflective surface. Its UV stability prevents color fade and brittleness. It is suitable for roofing sheets and insulation and can be easily molded to form roofing products. It is durable and can withstand daily wear and tear. Additionally, building wraps and air and moisture barrier membranes enhanced with propylene can decrease air intrusion and heat transfer, thereby increasing the energy efficiency of buildings. Besides this, there is a rise in the construction of residential and commercial spaces around the world.
- Moreover, propylene-based materials are widely utilized to produce adhesives. They can be used to repair all kinds of plastics. The rising demand for plastic materials in numerous sectors is contributing to the market growth.
- The propylene demand is further propelled by its utilization to produce polypropylene, a thermoplastic polymer that is widely used in food packaging due to its durability, heat resistance, and resistance to water and chemicals. In addition, there is an increase in the need for convenient and durable packaging solutions among individuals.

Product Description
Propylene is a colorless gas with a faint petroleum-like odor. It is shipped as a liquefied gas under its own vapor pressure. It is produced by the cracking of propane or higher hydrocarbons in the presence of steam under conditions very like those outlined for ethylene. It is also recovered as a by-product of other refinery operations, principally from the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) of gas oils and, to a lesser extent, from the volatile products of co*king. It is a building-block chemical base for more complex chemicals, such as propylene oxide, acrylonitrile, cumene, and acrylic acid.
Apart from this, propylene is used across various industries, such as the petrochemical industry, where it serves as a raw material during production. It is utilized as a feedstock for the manufacture of polypropylene.
