(I) Industry Overview
In the past few years, my country’s chemical industry has developed rapidly, and exports have maintained a certain degree of growth. Customs data show that China’s total import and export trade of chemical products in 2019 was US$347.9 billion. There are many types of chemical products In many chemical fields, my country’s product output and export volume are far ahead. my country’s sulfur dyes are an important sulfur dye import base in Southeast Asia and other countries: pigments and dyes in Germany, Switzerland, Singapore, Egypt, Iran, Brazil, Bangladesh and other countries basically completely occupy the dye and pigment market in these countries.
The global economic growth rate has slowed down, and the support for the demand for the chemical market has weakened. The chemical industry faces a complex external environment, such as trade frictions, protectionism, rising energy prices, exchange rate fluctuations, etc. Experts pointed out that refining, olefins, aromatics, modern coal chemical industry, and new chemical materials will be important areas to support the development of the entire industry.
