The use of caustic soda involves many fields.
Caustic soda can be divided into flake soda, granular soda and solid soda according to its form. The use of caustic soda involves many fields, the following is a detailed introduction for you: 1. Refined petroleum. After being washed with sulfuric acid, petroleum products still contain some acidic substances, which must be washed with sodium hydroxide solution and then washed with water to obtain refined products. 2.printing and dyeing Mainly used in indigo dyes and quinone dyes. In the dyeing process of vat dyes, caustic soda solution and sodium hydrosulfite should be used to reduce them to leuco acid, and then oxidized to the original insoluble state with oxidants after dyeing. After the cotton fabric is treated with caustic soda solution, the wax, grease, starch and other substances ... -
Global PVC demand recovery depends on China.
Entering 2023, due to sluggish demand in various regions, the global polyvinyl chloride (PVC) market still faces uncertainties. During most of 2022, PVC prices in Asia and the United States showed a sharp decline and bottomed out before entering 2023. Entering 2023, among various regions, after China adjusted its epidemic prevention and control policies, the market expects to respond; the United States may further raise interest rates in order to combat inflation and curb domestic PVC demand in the United States. Asia, led by China, and the United States have expanded PVC exports amid weak global demand. As for Europe, the region will still face the problem of high energy prices and inflation recession, and there will probably not be a sustainable recovery in industry profit margins. ... -

Analysis of China’s caustic soda export market in 2022.
In 2022, my country’s liquid caustic soda export market as a whole will show a fluctuating trend, and the export offer will reach a high level in May, about 750 US dollars/ton, and the annual average monthly export volume will be 210,000 tons. The substantial increase in the export volume of liquid caustic soda is mainly due to the increase in downstream demand in countries such as Australia and Indonesia, especially the commissioning of the downstream alumina project in Indonesia has increased the procurement demand for caustic soda; in addition, affected by international energy prices, local chlor-alkali plants in Europe have started construction Insufficient, the supply of liquid caustic soda is reduced, thus increasing the import of caustic soda will also form a positive suppo... -
