What is the current market situation for chlorobenzene in China?
Thread Content
I want to set up a benzene chloride production line with an annual output of 50,000 tons. What do you think are the market prospects? Should chlorobenzene be used alone, or should nitrochlorobenzene also be added to increase the added value of the product? Who can offer some advice?
1# caomeisky Benzene chloride is a product with a long-term demand; there is already an oversupply in China, so more factors need to be taken into consideration when introducing it into production
It’s better to use tetrachloroethylene, as there is a shortage of it in the domestic market, and import prices are rising steadily.
As for benzene chloride, I don’t know much about it. Isn’t nitrochlorobenzene a product that Yangnong Chemical produces on a large scale? I know its downstream applications include the pesticide and dye industries; in any case, the markets for downstream products such as o-/p-***amines and Red Base-B are all quite good. But I would like to remind the original poster that when using nitrochlorobenzene, o-nitrochlorobenzene and p-nitrochlorobenzene are produced in a 1:2 ratio; how do you manage this production ratio to meet downstream orders? After all, you don’t have an existing customer base.
