Price Problem Becomes Critical Rising costs continue to narrow profit-

margins on growing list of competitive chemical products

JLJEMAND FOR THE CHEMICAL INDUS­

TRY'S products continued at a high level in the first quarter of the year, with sales running 8.7% bet ter than the first three months of 1956. We may wit­ness some flattening of the economic growth curve, as some chemical execu­tives have predicted, but there were no indications of a serious setback in the early months of 1957.

Of more concern, perhaps, to chemi­cal manufacturers at the moment is the continued rise in prices resulting from advancing costs of production and dis­tribution. A machine going uphill in high gear can cause jitters as much as one going down. Chemical sales hit a new record of $24.7 billion 1956 and may reach $25.7 billion in 1957 (C&EN, Jan. 28 , page 70) . Some of the gain must be attributed to this in­flationary trend.

Prices of many of the industry's ton­nage inorganics and organics advanced during the first quarter. The more im­portant were methanol, formaldehyde, pure alcohol, vinyl chloride monomer, sodium, urea, calcium chloride, tita­nium pigments, stéarates, as well as the industry's products of more ad­vanced processing. Among the latter were rayon yarns, cellophane, tetra-ethyllead, and widely used pharma­ceuticals such as penicillin, bromides, and salicylates.

• Operating Costs. Raw materials which enter chemical manufacture are becoming more costly. Petroleum toluene and xylene advanced IV2 cents to 3 5 1 / 2 cents per gallon, and rock salt deliveries from the New York state producing area rose 3 cents to $1.07 per 100 pounds . Phosphate rock has been strengthening in Florida as the result of fuel oil costs. Fuel costs are higher for other chemical opera­tions, and the same is true for steel drums and other containers. Average weekly earnings in chemicals and re­lated products were $88.58 in Janu­ary this vear against S84.87 at the start of 1956.'

Transportation costs a re u p over a year ago; and because of the competi­tive nature of the chemical business, manufacturers must absorb freight charges in whole or in part . Monsanto says its freight bill for a year is more than $35 million, no t counting the pipelines, pumps, switch engines, trucks, barges, and warehouses which

are all necessary for moving its huge chemical output.

• Container Problem. Monsanto s situation with containers is probably typical for the industry. The company has about 100 basic containers, ranging from bottles holding a pound to barges for 1250 tons of styrene monomer or for 9000 tons of fertilizer. Costs may vary from a 2-cent kraft paper bag to a $175,000 insulated barge. Monsanto spends about $11 million a year for one-trip containers and operates a $1-million inventory of returnable con­tainers.

These are the reasons behind the current squeeze placed on manufac­turers by rising costs and prices for chemicals. Du Pont's president, Craw­ford Greenewalt, says the problem fac­ing his company and others lies in arriving at competitive selling prices that satisfy customers, contribute to expanding markets, and yield a reason­able return on investment. J. A. Woods of Commercial Solvents says almost the same thing. Benefits of increased business volume, he observes, are offset by narrowed profit margins on certain products. Costs continued to rise in 1956, but competitive condi­tions prevented corresponding price increases.

• Consuming Industries. For chem­ical consuming industries, the picture is not promising. However, one major industry which suffered a setback last year, the automobile, is doing better, and its leaders expect to sell 6.5 million cars in 1957, or 10 cc more than 1956.

Automobiles and aircraft, directly and indirectly, account for an increas­ing percentage of chemical consump­tion. The aircraft industry is expand­ing at die accelerated rate of 3 % per month as a result of government pur­chases of aircraft and guided missiles. The expansion will probably continue throughout most of 1957, whereas the auto industry has yet to meet its real test in the spring buying season. Both industries have become important con­sumers of plastics, synthetic coatings, and light and heavy metals.

Construction does not look promising as far as new homes are concerned, bu t this situation may be offset by a larger volume of industrial building and by federal and state spending for roads and other public works. Privately financed homes in 1956 totaled 1,097,-

droxide, sodium carbonate, and anhy­drous ammonia, and price changes in this group have been few. Barium car­bonate advanced $4.00 per ton, and the calcium chloride schedule recently was raised $2.00 per ton. Both increases reflect production costs. One of the outstanding price upturns in fertilizer materials was offered by urea. A large eastern manufacturer raised his sched­ule $5.00 per ton to $100 at t he plant, to become effective April 1. Other urea makers have not yet followed suit.

Crude sulfur continues at $26.50 per ton at the mines and appears to be stabilized a t that level despite Mexico's expanding shipments. One U . S. con­sumer is reported to have contracted for 100,000 tons over a 10-year period from Gulf Sulphur Corp., and increas­ing amounts of the Mexican product are said to be going to Europe. The current quotation for Mexican dark or blended c rude sulfur is $25 per ton. Refined sulfur in the U. S. advanced 50 cents per 100 pounds, establishing the bagged material (sulfur flowers) at $4.74 per 1O0 pounds at the plant.

• Metcit Derivatives Down. Metals, especially copper, came under great pressure in the first quarter, and marked price declines took place in their chemi­cal derivatives. Copper sulfate, some 63,000 tons of which were produced last year as an agricultural fungicide, went d o w n as much as $1.00 per 100 pounds t o $12.90. Copper cyanide came down 2 V 2 cents per pound to 72 cents, and reductions of 3 / 4 to 2 cents per pound were effected for the carbonate, chloride, and related items. Tin salts were given several reduc­tions as a result of the tin metal decline to within 1 cent of the $1.00 level, and lithium hydroxide receded 2 cents per pound to a range of SO to 8 1 1 / 2 cents.

• Sodium a n d TEL. Sodium came into the market spotlight with an ad­vance of 1 cent to 17 cents per pound as three leading producers announced plans for expanded capacity. Tetra-ethyllead is still the largest consumer of

200, one sixth less than the 1955 count. This lower rate continued during the early months of 1957.

• Synthetic Fibers. Textiles, one of the largest users of dyes and chemicals, did not have a good year in 1956, and the first two months of the current year brought little or no improvement. Some cotton fabric mills have gone on a five-day basis, and here and there you find cutbacks occurring in rayon and syn­thetic fabric production. Textile manu­facturers' sales dropped from $1,184,-000,000 last November to $1,095,000,-000 in January.

On the other hand, sales and uses for noncellulosic synthetic fibers con­tinue t o expand. D u Pont sold more nylon, Orion, and Dacron in 1956, and nylon met important new applications in such, things as tires and carpets. Current use of noncellulosic fibers to­day is slightly under 500 million pounds a year. Frank J. Soday of Chemstrand predicts that this figure will increase to around 1.1 billion pounds by 1965 and to some 4 billion pounds by 1975. The industry now has nine major synthetic fibers derived from polymers based upon chemical raw materials.

• Pharmaceu t i ca l s Out look . Chem­ical demands by the drug and pharma­ceutical industry are expected to run slightly higher than 1956. Antibiotics and vitamins should continue to lead sales at t h e manufacturers ' level, with hormone products and tranquilizers probably becoming the outstanding growth i tems. Prescriptions dispensed at retail last year rose 97<r to 629 mil­lion, according to the Medimetric Insti­tute, and made even larger gains in dollar volume because of higher prices. Dollar volume was placed at $1.3 bil­lion in another estimate.

Crop income and weather uncertain­ties render agricultural chemical fore­casts uncertain at best. Some in the industry look for bet ter results during the season ending next June than the 22,096,000 short tons of fertilizer con­sumed in 1955-56. Increased atten­tion will be given to anhydrous am­monia for direct application, nitrogen solutions, and high-analysis materials. Meanwhile , the over-all ammonia sup­ply situation has improved.

• A d e q u a t e Suppl ies . Generally, supplies of the heavy tonnage inor­ganics appear to be adequate. This is especially true for chlorine, sodium hy-

sodium, but the processing of titanium and zirconium offer the metal an ex­panding market. Tetraethyllead, both motor and aviation mix, was advanced by Du Pont and Ethyl Corp.

Among synthetic resins, firm and higher trends were noted among the urea and melamine surface coating products. A prominent manufacturer advanced the melamines V 2 cent per pound in the eastern area and urea resins 1 cent. In t he West, melamines were left unaltered, while ureas moved up a cent. A large supplier of resins for the coatings industry announced a 1 2-cent advance for all nonphthalic

resins, epoxy ester resins, and all alkyds. Vinyl chloride monomer is also in a

strong position. I ts production passed the 500-million-pound level long ago on increased capacity. However, spot quantities became difficult to round up early in the year, and leading sellers asked higher prices. The asking price for tank car deliveries has become 12 cents per pound, a n d contracts calling for shipments over 1957 are reported negotiating between 11 and 12 cents.

As against these developments, the resins market has witnessed a continued soft price situation for polyethylene. With production of high-pressure types reaching the marke t in large volume,

sales came at discounts of 10% from listed quotations, and more recently are reported to have been even lower at 35 to 36 cents. The earlier list price was 41 cents. Dow cut expanded polyethylene.

to 32V2 cents, tank cars, found reflec­tion in formaldehyde, p-formaldehyde, and hexamethylenetetramine. An up­turn of 1 cent in bromine to 32 cents per pound, the first change in this product in a long time, was followed by price advances of 1 to 5 cents in the bromides.

Medicinal chemicals and pharma­ceuticals on the whole have been more stable. Probably the outstanding de­velopment in this group was a reduc­tion of 60 cents in reserpine to $2.40 per gram, the result of improved pro­duction techniques and larger output. There was a drop of 10 cents in sali-cylamide, bringing the price to $1.15 per pound. The factor here was com­petitive selling. The story in vitamins in recent years has been one of constant reduction in price. One of the most recent changes takes B6, pyridoxine hydrochloride, from 37V3 cents per gram to a low of 2 9 1 / 2 cents.

Price trends in materials used in the paint and coatings industry were mixed. The cadmium lithopones were lowered anywhere from 35 cents to $1.15 per pound, while pigments based on tita­nium were higher. Both rutile and ana-tase grades of titanium dioxide were advanced a cent per pound, and frac­tionally higher quotations were effected for t i tanium calcium rutile pigment. Amyl acetate moved upward one-half cent per pound, and turpentine lost 1 V 4 cents after several increases total­ing 2 3 / 4 cents per gallon at Savannah. Cobalt driers and salts declined from l 3 / 4 to 5 3 / 4 cents per pound, and stéarates moved up 2 cents.

Paint sales set a new high record in 1956. Sales for the first 11 months amounted to $1,483,000,000, against $1,459,000,000 in the same period of 1955.

PRICES Quotations are all per pound unless otherwise stated and apply to quantities normally involved in commercial transactions. An effort has been made to confine the compila­tion to the basic quotations of manufacturers, such as tanks, carlots, and less than car-lots. Smaller quantities and shipments which involve special packing usually command prices higher than those listed.
