In 2020, China's titanium dioxide market has experienced two days of ice and fire
For 2021, industry insiders believe that the supply and demand side of the titanium dioxide industry is tight, the price will gradually rise, the average market price will increase by 28% to 35% year-on-year, and the industry boom is expected to continue to pick up
For 2021, industry insiders believe that the supply and demand side of the titanium dioxide industry is tight, the price will gradually rise, the average market price will increase by 28% to 35% year-on-year, and the industry boom is expected to continue to pick up
Capacity growth is limited Capacity growth is limited
According to relevant statistics, in 2020, there will be 40 full-process producers above designated size with normal production conditions in China's titanium dioxide industry, with a comprehensive effective production capacity of 3.
According to relevant statistics, in 2020, there will be 40 full-process producers above designated size with normal production conditions in China's titanium dioxide industry, with a comprehensive effective production capacity of 3.
It is understood that due to the relatively large pollution in the titanium dioxide project, especially the sulfuric acid method has been listed as a restricted level in the national industrial policy, the environmental protection approval is extremely strict, and it is difficult for new plants to pass the approval, which basically eliminates enterprises other than existing manufacturers.
It is worth noting that the development trend of titanium dioxide chlorination method is more obvious in the future, but due to the constraints of technology and other factors, it will still be in the exploratory development stage in the next two years, and it is difficult to form a large-scale industrial supply
On the whole, the domestic titanium dioxide market will be in short supply, and this situation may continue for 2 to 3 years until the new production capacity is implemented
New apps are coming New apps are coming
The downstream of titanium dioxide is mainly coatings, plastics and paper industries, and the terminal driving force comes from real estate and automobile industries

It is understood that the proportion of mid-to-high-end shipments of all enterprises producing architectural decorative coatings, that is, interior and exterior wall coatings (latex paint), has increased year by year, and the proportion of titanium dioxide in the formulation of high-end architectural decorative coatings has increased significantly
It is worth noting that new application fields also open up space for titanium dioxide market demand
When nano-titanium dioxide is used together with mica pearlescent pigments (or aluminum pigments), as effect pigments, it can produce a very charming two-color light effect, which can increase the fullness and color beauty of metal topcoats.
In addition, high-performance titanium dioxide, especially nano-scale titanium dioxide, has great imagination space for high-capacity capacitor materials, solar materials, new energy battery materials, military camouflage materials, and temperature-reducing and energy-saving materials
The export market is growing steadily The export market is growing steadily
According to customs statistics, China's titanium dioxide export volume will exceed 1.
According to customs statistics, China's titanium dioxide export volume will exceed 1.
According to the statistics of the General Administration of Customs, the cumulative import volume of titanium dioxide in China in 2020 was 168,300 tons, an increase of 0.
71% over the previous year
.
The price difference of titanium dioxide imported and exported in China is huge, the average import price is 47% higher, and the export is usually low-grade products
.
Industry insiders believe that it can be seen from the year-on-year increase in exports that the capacity utilization of overseas giants has reached the limit, and it is a foregone conclusion that demand exceeds supply in 2021
.
.
In terms of international demand, under the background of the strong economic recovery after the epidemic in the United States and Europe, the demand for titanium dioxide is expected to increase significantly.
After 2010, there is basically no net new capacity overseas, and the capacity utilization rate is close to the limit
.
Some domestic small and medium-sized enterprises withdrew from competition due to the relatively sluggish industry in the early stage.
After the domestic environmental protection policy was tightened, the route of the sulfuric acid method was limited, resulting in limited actual release capacity in 2021
.
Driven by the upgrading of domestic consumption, strong demand in new fields and export demand, it is impossible to further increase the capacity utilization rate of the whole industry, and the market price trend is established
.
If the price in December 2020 is maintained, it is expected that the apparent domestic consumption of titanium dioxide in 2021 will be around 2.
7 million tons, while the export demand will be around 1.
4 million tons

In addition, titanium dioxide raw material titanium ore prices are currently at relatively high levels, and real prices are expected to increase by at least 3% per year over the next 10 years or more
.
Under the support of high cost, it is expected that the price of titanium dioxide in China will rise all the way in 2021
