Global Propargyl Butylcarbamate (CAS 76114-73-3) Market 2026 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2032

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Propargyl Butylcarbamate (CAS 76114-73-3) market size was valued at US$ 11.32 million in 2025 and is forecast to a readjusted size of US$ 16.71 million by 2032 with a CAGR of 5.2% during review period.
In 2025, global Propargyl Butylcarbamate (CAS 76114-73-3) capacity 900 Tons, sales reached approximately 810 Tons, with an average market price of around 13 USD/Kg, industrial gross margin 26%.
Propargyl Butylcarbamate is best understood as a specialty intermediate embedded in the IPBC value chain, rather than a standalone bulk biocide. The compound is also known as 2-propynyl butylcarbamate or N-butyl propargyl carbamate, with CAS No. 76114-73-3, molecular formula C8H13NO2 and molecular weight of about 155.19 g/mol. Commercially, it is supplied mainly as a research, reference-standard or custom-manufactured fine chemical, often at ≥95% purity, while the main industrial value is captured after iodination into 3-iodo-2-propynyl butylcarbamate. This distinction is material for market analysis: Propargyl Butylcarbamate sits upstream as an intermediate and related degradation product, while the iodinated derivative is the active material widely commercialized in coatings, wood protection, adhesives, sealants, textiles, metalworking fluids, polymers and selected personal-care preservation systems.
Process competitiveness in Propargyl Butylcarbamate is driven by impurity control, iodination selectivity, color stability and regulatory acceptability. A typical manufacturing pathway starts with propargyl alcohol and butyl isocyanate to form the carbamate intermediate, followed by controlled iodination using iodide salts and an oxidizing agent. Industrially relevant process windows include alkaline pH above 7, nonionic surfactant concentration of roughly 15%–20%, sodium hypochlorite addition at about 1.1–1.3 mol per mol of iodide salt, low-temperature addition, and a controlled iodination stage below approximately 20°C. The highest-value producers are those able to minimize di- and tri-iodinated impurities, maintain low moisture in the downstream wet cake, and deliver consistent color and assay performance. These requirements are important because downstream applications in architectural coatings, cosmetics-adjacent preservation, and wood protection are highly sensitive to discoloration, light stability and impurity profiles.
Demand for Propargyl Butylcarbamate is ultimately tied to the performance requirements of industrial preservation systems. The downstream IPBC product family is sold as high-purity powder, concentrated liquid products and water-based dispersions, with active contents commonly seen around 20%–40% in formulated products and about 98%–99% in technical powder formats. The application logic is clear: fungi, mold and microbial contamination reduce the service life and appearance of coatings, wood, adhesives, sealants, inks, plastics, leather, textiles and metalworking fluids. In China, market participation is concentrated in intermediates, custom synthesis, formulation support and export-linked supply, while high-end customers increasingly require full SDS/TDS documentation, impurity control, REACH/BPR awareness, customer audits and batch traceability. The upstream cost base is exposed to propargyl alcohol, butyl isocyanate, iodine, iodide salts, hypochlorite, solvents and surfactants, making iodine availability and quality control two central factors in supplier selection.
Future growth in Propargyl Butylcarbamate will be led by higher-regulation applications, controlled-release preservation technologies and regional supply-chain localization. The EU’s 2026 extension of the approval expiry date for IPBC in product-type 8 wood preservatives to the end of 2027 shows continued market dependence on this chemistry, while also keeping endocrine-disruption review, environmental toxicity and water-release concerns at the center of regulatory pressure. Technical differentiation is moving toward low-leaching dispersions, encapsulated systems, zero-VOC formulations, improved color stability and synergistic blends that reduce active loading while maintaining long-term dry-film or wood-protection efficacy. Chinese suppliers have an opening in high-purity Propargyl Butylcarbamate, traceable iodine-based intermediates, export-compliant documentation packages and co-development with domestic coatings and wood-protection customers; constraints remain iodine price volatility, hazardous-material logistics, isocyanate handling, wastewater management, overseas registration cost and long qualification cycles at multinational customers.
