Entering 2017, the chemical
coatings
field is not meant to be calm, as a firm attraction to
paint factory
business eyes of the
titanium dioxide
once again ushered in the tide of price adjustment, the 2016 rise has not stopped the price of titanium dioxide surge.
Sept. First look at what enterprises in January price adjustment:
January 5, Henan Yulilian Chemical Co., Ltd. issued a price adjustment letter, the company's various types of titanium dioxide sales price on the basis of the original price for all types of domestic customers increased by 700 yuan / ton, for all types of international customers increased by 100 dollars / ton, price adjustment includes Sichuan Longyi Titanium Co., Ltd.
Shandong Dongjia issued a price adjustment letter, the company's gold-redstone titanium dioxide from January 6, 2017 domestic sales price increased by 1000 yuan / ton, foreign sales price increased by 150 dollars / ton.
Panzhihua Titanium Sea Technology issued a price adjustment letter, the company's gold-redstone titanium white powder domestic trade prices from January 6, 2017 to increase 1000 yuan / ton, foreign trade prices increased by 100 dollars / ton.
Jiangsu Town Titanium issued a price adjustment letter, the company's gold-redstone titanium white powder domestic sales price from January 6, 2017 to increase 1000 yuan / ton, foreign sales price increased by 100 U.S. dollars / ton.
Pinggui flying saucer issued a price adjustment letter, the company's sharp titanium-type titanium dioxide price from January 6, 2017 to increase 500 yuan / ton.
January 7, Anada issued a notice that the company's gold-redstone titanium dioxide domestic sales price on the basis of the original price increased by 700 yuan / ton, sharp titanium-type titanium white powder domestic sales price on the basis of the original price increased by 1000 yuan / ton, foreign trade sales base price increased by 100 dollars / ton.

. Titanium dioxide is the main component of titanium dioxide, chemical stability, in general, with most substances do not react. In nature, titanium dioxide has three crystals: plate titanium, sharp titanium and redstone. Plate titanium type is unstable crystal type, no industrial use value, sharp titanium type (Anatase) for short A type, and rutile type (Rutile) for short R type, have a stable lattiter, is an important white pigment and porcelain glaze, compared with other white pigments have superior whiteness, coloration, cover, weather resistance, heat resistance, and chemical stability, especially no toxicity.
Titanium dioxide is considered to be the world's best performance of a white pigment, widely used in coatings, plastics, paper, printing ink, chemical fiber, rubber, cosmetics and other industrial applications, including coatings accounted for 60%, plastics accounted for 20%, paper accounted for 14%, other (including cosmetics, chemical fiber, electronics, ceramics, enamel, welding rods, alloys, glass and other fields) accounted for 6%.titanium dioxide applications
coating industry is the largest user of titanium dioxide, accounting for 60%, especially the redstone type titanium dioxide, most of which is consumed by the coating industry. Titanium dioxide use a large number of major paint varieties:
latex paint
, collagen paint,
automotive paint
,
powder coating
and other sub-sectors. Paint made of titanium dioxide, colorful, high cover force, strong coloring force, low dosage, variety, the stability of the medium can play a protective role, and can enhance the mechanical strength and adhesion of the paint film, prevent cracks, prevent ultraviolet and moisture through, extend the life of the paint film.
, the price trend of titanium dioxide directly affects the cost of downstream coating manufacturers.
2016, China's titanium dioxide production capacity is about 3.7 million tons/year, or 2.2 million tons if 60% is used in the coatings industry. After a continuous price increase in 2016, the current average factory price of gold-redstone titanium dioxide is about 17,000 yuan / ton, has far exceeded the 2015 high price of 12,250 yuan / ton, after four years of downturn in the titanium dioxide industry to open the upward channel.
In terms of global production capacity distribution, China's titanium dioxide production capacity in 2016 was about 3.7 million tons, accounting for 44% of global production capacity, while the U.S. titanium dioxide production capacity was about 1.46 million tons, accounting for 18.89 percent of the world's titanium dioxide, ranking second. This was followed by Germany at 5.96 per cent and the UK at 4.97 per cent.2005-2019 global titanium dioxide production capacity growth forecast 2005-2019 China titanium dioxide production capacity growth forecast
Throughout 2016, titanium dioxide industry with a multi-round price increase atmosphere to stimulate the entire downstream procurement, titanium dioxide major production enterprises in the heart of undetone co-price adjustment, the implementation of hunger marketing, promote the overall price increase of titanium dioxide industry.
More importantly, due to the impact of foreign trade orders, titanium dioxide exports increased significantly, with total exports of titanium dioxide in January-November 2016 at 658,464.006 tons, up 36.38 percent year-on-year, with the top three export countries being India, the United States and South Korea.2012-2016 China's titanium dioxide import and export volume
export orders increased significantly, foreign trade has become the driving force of China's titanium dioxide industry price increases, in the face of irrational market, is the downstream industry suffering, and even
paint enterprises
big talk, do not hurt each other.
undoubtedly, the madness of titanium dioxide in 2016 will continue in 2017, with HC
Coatings Network
predicting that in 2017 the price of titanium dioxide, for example, is expected to break through the 20,000 yuan/tonne mark.
faced with rising raw materials, increasingly stringent environmental protection policies, paint manufacturers are like walking between ice and fire, one step heaven, one step hell.
"save" paint companies in 2017?
