Zinc sulphate monohydrate market research report

Zinc sulphate is the raw material of lithopone and zinc products. We also call it zinc sulfate or zinc alum, and its appearance is achromatic needle shape or powder crystal. Molecular formula : ZnSO4•7H2O, CAS No.：7446-20-0 molecular weight:287.56,density,1.957g/cm3, melting point: 100℃. And it easily soluble in water and dissolve lightly in ethanol and glycerin, but zinc sulphate will air slake gradually in the dry air. ZnSO4•7H2O will loss a water of crystallization and turn to ZnSO4•6H2O when the temperature reaches 39℃.

It has been more than 40 years since the pioneering production of Zinc sulphate in China. Until the end of 2007, the throughput reaches 200,000 MT in our country. Throughout the research, we found that the home market demand of zinc sulphate is 90,000 MT/ year in 2007, estimated that the upcoming several years the speed with 10% or so is increased. Arrived 2105, the total production of zinc sulfate in Chinese home market is nearly 1500000MT/YEAR.

The demands of zinc sulphate increase rapidly in Chinese owing to the merger of American industry and rationalization layout of factories .The import rate of zinc sulphate in America speed at 18% during 2000-2005, but it only satisfy 50% of the total demands. It is counted the requirement of zinc sulphate in American market is 64753 MT in 2004 and 67807MT in 2005. It is estimated that will arrive at 6%/a in 2009 .And the import volume is 32376 mt in 2004,34558 mt in 2005.The annual increase rate is 12.1%/a. The cosumering proportion of zinc sulphate in America is fertilizer 72%, animal feed 10%, water-treat 8%,(and also the manufacture of chemical. mineral flotation, and nylon -production)
