The global Nonyl Phenol market witnessed a declining price trend in Q2 2025, mainly influenced by softening downstream demand, oversupply, and falling feedstock costs. This aromatic compound, derived from phenol and nonene, is widely used in the production of surfactants, plasticizers, and epoxy resins, making its market sensitive to movements in construction, industrial cleaning, and polymer manufacturing sectors.
Despite minor supply disruptions in a few regions, the overall market faced a bearish sentiment due to weakened buying interest and cautious procurement activities.
