According to the published "China p-aminophenol Market Research and Investment Value Report (2022 Edition)": p-aminophenol, also known as p-hydroxyaniline, is an important fine chemical raw material.
P-aminophenol is an important organic intermediate widely used in pharmaceuticals, dyestuffs and organic synthesis. The p-aminophenol industry is the first major industry downstream of p-nitrochlorobenzene, with a total industry capacity of about 115,000 t/a in 2020.
The main producers of p-aminophenol are: Bayi Chemical with a capacity of 60,000t/a, Taixing Yangzi Pharmaceutical & Chemical Co. The plant is purchased from outside.
Influenced by the increase in demand for cold and flu drugs due to the new pneumonia epidemic, the start-up rate of the p-aminophenol industry in 2020 reached 91.3%, the best level in many years.
Compared with foreign countries, China's p-aminophenol consumption structure is single, the Chinese units concerned should actively develop new products, increase the development of downstream products, especially in rubber additives and veterinary drugs, product development efforts to expand the scope of application of p-aminophenol and the amount of applications; in addition should also be eliminated as soon as possible the traditional production process, the use of more advanced catalytic hydrogenation of p-nitrochlorobenzene or nitrobenzene electrolytic reduction method of production to reduce production costs and improve product quality to meet China's consumption at the same time, should actively expand exports.
