甘氨酸中国产品研究报告

Glycine, including tech-grade, feed-grade, food-grade, pharmaceutical-grade, is widely used as raw materials for CMC, agrochemicals and surfactant. China is not only a major production base of glycine, but also a large consumer. Glycine has experienced strong growth momentum over the past few years especially after 2007, seeing a surge in demand at home, which pushes up capacity expansion and output increase. China’s glycine capacity is expected to reach 370,700t/a in 2010, and its output was over 150,000 tonnes in 2009. Besides production situation, this report also provides answers to the key issues in Chinese glycine industry as follows. (1) Chongqing Sanxia Yingli Chemical Company is the first and the only company adopting natural gas as starting raw material to produce glycine in China, and it has suffered a lot in its glycine business notably from unstable production, immature technology etc. What’s its current situation and how it will get out of the predicament to seek further development? (2) Glycine industry has encountered poor profit and low price in 2009, due to the sluggish glyphosate. What is the development trend in 2010 and even to 2014? How about the industry integration of glycine and its upstream products? (3) At present, in what field glycine is applied in China? Will other potential end-use segments be developed? You can also figure out the breakdown of drivers and barriers for Chinese glycine industry, as well as the forecast on glycine development in China in 2009~2013.
