According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Butynediol Propoxylate market size was valued at US$ 14.09 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 18.44 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 3.9% during review period.
In 2025, the global sales volume of Butynediol Propoxylate is estimated at approximately 1,850 tons, with the mainstream ex-factory average price at around USD 7.4/kg. The gross margin of major manufacturers is approximately 25%–40%.
Butynediol Propoxylate is an alkynol ether electroplating intermediate, commonly abbreviated as BMP, with CAS No. 1606-79-7. The product is typically a transparent to pale yellow liquid and is mainly used in nickel plating additive system. It helps extend the bright range, improve coating brightness, support leveling performance, and enhance the uniform appearance of the plated layer. Compared with butynediol itself, Butynediol Propoxylate is modified through propoxylation, giving it better water solubility, dispersibility and compatibility with electroplating bath formulation. It is commonly used as a long-life brightener, weak leveling agent and auxiliary additive, and is a relatively common functional intermediate in bright nickel plating and semi-bright nickel plating system.
Its upstream raw material mainly includes butynediol, propylene oxide, catalyst, solvent, refining auxiliary and packaging material. Key production requirements include control of the propoxylation reaction, stability of active content, color control, moisture control and batch-to-batch consistency. Downstream, it is mainly used in bright nickel plating, semi-bright nickel plating, composite nickel plating additive formulation and a small amount of ferrous metal corrosion inhibition system. Terminal application covers electroplating processing fields such as automotive part, hardware product, electronic connector, sanitary ware and home appliance, and mechanical protective component. Overall, Butynediol Propoxylate is not a final electroplating solution, but an important raw material used by nickel plating additive manufacturer to formulate brightener, leveling agent and auxiliary additive.
