Mono Ethylene Glycol Purchase Price

The price of this material in the domestic market is influenced by several factors:

  • Exchange rate: Since part of the market demand is met through imports, fluctuations in the dollar exchange rate have a direct impact.
  • Global oil prices: As a petrochemical-based product, MEG prices are influenced by global crude oil and ethylene prices.
  • Supply from domestic petrochemical companies: Producers such as Marun Petrochemical, Shazand Petrochemical, Amir Kabir Petrochemical, as well as imported sources from China and India, play a role in market supply.
  • Seasonal demand: During winter, higher consumption in antifreeze production causes prices to increase.

On average, during the first half of the Iranian year 1404, the price of this material fluctuated between 75,000 and 95,000 Tomans per kilogram. For the latest daily MEG prices, it is recommended to contact the sales department of Sepidestan Tejarat.

This material is a transparent, odorless, and sweet-tasting organic compound widely used in various industries, especially in polyester and antifreeze production. Its molecular formula is C₂H₆O₂, and it belongs to the diol alcohol group. Its high boiling point, suitable viscosity, excellent water solubility, and thermal performance make it an ideal choice for industrial processes.

In the Iranian market, MEG is generally supplied in two main forms:

  • 220-liter metal or plastic drums, equivalent to approximately 230 kilograms net weight
  • Bulk tanker shipments for large-scale consumers and factories

Sepidestan Tejarat offers both packaging options with guaranteed quality and fast loading.

Applications

1. Polyester Resin Production

One of the largest consumers of this material is the polyester manufacturing industry. In the production of synthetic fibers, PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate), and thermoplastic resins, MEG is used as the primary diol source for polymerization.

2. Antifreeze and Coolants

Due to its low freezing point and anti-corrosion properties, it is widely used in automotive antifreeze, HVAC systems, cooling towers, and power plants. When mixed with water, it provides excellent thermal stability under varying temperature conditions.

3. Paint, Ink, and Adhesive Production

In many paint and ink formulations, MEG is used as a solvent and stabilizer. It helps pigments disperse properly while improving durability and stability.

4. Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic Industries (Non-sensitive Applications)

In some cases, MEG is used as a carrier or solvent in industrial cosmetic and hygiene products, provided there is no direct skin contact or ingestion. Its direct use in skincare or food-related products is limited, and safer alternatives are preferred in those applications.

5. Moisture Absorption in Industrial Processes

In industrial operations such as gas sweetening and natural gas production, MEG is used as a dehydrating agent due to its moisture absorption properties. This feature is especially important in petrochemical and gas industries.

Global Price Fluctuations

Internationally, MEG prices also experience significant fluctuations. Major global producers include:

  • SABIC (Saudi Arabia)
  • Reliance (India)
  • MEGlobal
  • Shell Chemicals
  • Sinopec (China)

In recent years, due to the energy crisis, the Ukraine war, and changing demand in Asia and Europe, global MEG prices have fluctuated between 500and500 and 950 per ton. Changes in ethylene feedstock prices are also a major influencing factor.

Global Market and Growth Outlook

With the continuous growth of plastics, synthetic textiles, and automotive industries, demand for MEG is expected to rise steadily through 2030. China, the United States, India, and Southeast Asian countries are among the largest consumers.

In Iran, increasing petrochemical production capacity is boosting domestic supply, and dependence on imports is expected to decline, although supplementary imports may still be necessary at certain times.
