Northeast Asia Nitrobenzene Prices Movement Oct 2025:
In October 2025, Nitrobenzene prices in Northeast Asia declined to 1.20 USD/kg, showing a 2.1% decrease from the previous month. The downward movement was driven by sluggish demand from the aniline and polyurethane sectors. Stable benzene feedstock supply and lower operating rates at downstream plants further contributed to the price reduction.

Factors Affecting Nitrobenzene Supply and Prices – October 2025
- Feedstock Benzene Cost Fluctuations
Benzene remains the core raw material for nitrobenzene production, and its price movements significantly impact overall costs. In October 2025, slight declines in benzene prices, supported by stable crude oil values and sufficient inventories, helped ease production costs, resulting in marginal downward pressure on nitrobenzene prices.
- Downstream Aniline and Polyurethane Market Demand
Nitrobenzene demand is closely tied to aniline production, which is primarily used in polyurethane foams. A slowdown in construction and automotive manufacturing during October 2025 led to reduced consumption from downstream sectors, slightly weakening overall demand and contributing to softer nitrobenzene market sentiment.
- Production Rates and Plant Operations
Manufacturing facilities across major producing regions, particularly in Northeast Asia, operated at moderate capacity levels. Stable output, coupled with steady raw material availability, prevented major supply constraints. However, maintenance shutdowns at select plants caused short-term supply tightness in localized markets, balancing out the broader price decline.
- Energy and Utility Costs
Energy expenses play a crucial role in nitrobenzene synthesis due to its energy-intensive process. During October 2025, electricity and fuel costs remained relatively steady, providing cost stability for producers. This helped limit sharp fluctuations in market prices despite changing demand dynamics in key downstream industries.
- Trade and Logistics Conditions
Shipping routes and freight availability continued to improve after earlier disruptions. Adequate container supply and consistent trade flows ensured stable exports from Asia to Western markets. These logistics improvements supported market balance, although weak demand restricted any significant upward momentum in global nitrobenzene prices.
Market Index and Price Trend
The Nitrobenzene Price Index for October 2025 showed a mild decline, reflecting steady but subdued trading activity. Market confidence remained neutral, with prices softening slightly due to slower downstream consumption and steady raw material supply, keeping overall market dynamics relatively balanced across key regions.
Future Demand Outlook
Looking ahead, nitrobenzene demand is projected to strengthen modestly in late Q4 2025. Seasonal recovery in the construction and coatings industries may boost polyurethane demand, indirectly supporting nitrobenzene consumption. Any rebound in benzene or crude oil prices could also contribute to mild upward price adjustments.
Current Demand and Uses
Nitrobenzene serves as a vital chemical intermediate, primarily for aniline production, which is essential in polyurethane foams, dyes, rubber accelerators, and pharmaceuticals. Ongoing demand from the automotive, construction, and coatings sectors ensures its continued industrial relevance, with long-term growth expected from expanding infrastructure and manufacturing applications.
