1. Compact structure: The pump body and impeller are designed in one piece, which makes the pump more compact, occupies a small area and is easy to install and maintain. Bin-Bridge General Machinery Co.,Ltd , https://www.castingpump.com
In the near future, environmental protection verification continues to advance, the rate of start-ups of enterprises has been reduced, and the supply of titanium dioxide has declined. In addition, the export market of titanium dioxide has maintained a good trend, and the inventory of large plants has continued to be tight. Statistics from the General Administration of Customs show that China’s titanium dioxide exports were 64,000 tons in June, a year-on-year increase of 44.48%; from January to June, a total of 348,500 tons of titanium dioxide was exported, a year-on-year increase of 28%, accounting for nearly 20% of the total domestic production. With the improvement of supply and demand, the profitability of the titanium dioxide industry will continue to increase.
From the perspective of industry fundamentals, titanium dioxide is currently the best performing white pigment, mainly used in coatings, plastics, papermaking and other fields. Last year, China's titanium dioxide production capacity was 3.52 million tons, and the titanium dioxide industry started at 67%. Due to overcapacity, the titanium dioxide market has continued to slump in recent years. At the end of last year, the price of titanium dioxide had fallen to historical lows, and the market price of rutile titanium dioxide had dropped to 9,000 yuan per ton. Many companies had their costs and prices upside down and were at a loss. At present, the mainstream tax-inclusive price of rutile titanium dioxide is between 12,500 and 13,500 yuan/ton, and the mainstream price of anatase-type titanium dioxide is between 10,500 yuan and 11,000 yuan/ton, which has already returned above the break-even point. Titanium dioxide company manufacturers shipped better, inventory is low.
At the same time, the concentration of the titanium dioxide industry is also accelerating. In recent years, the market for titanium dioxide in China has continued to slump, and environmental protection has gradually progressed. Some of the backward production capacity has opted out of the market. It is reported that during the “Thirteenth Five-Year Plan†period, titanium dioxide produced by the sulfuric acid process will be subject to reduction and replacement, and enterprises that fail to meet environmental protection, energy consumption, and safety production standards will be shut down in an orderly manner. According to the opinions on titanium dioxide pollution prevention and control, requirements will be put forward in areas such as clean production, air pollution prevention, water pollution control, solid waste disposal and comprehensive utilization. The titanium dioxide production process of the chlorination process is encouraged, with a single-line annual production capacity of over 30,000 tons, and a titanium-rich material with a titanium dioxide content of not less than 90% as raw material. There are only about 10 companies with domestic production capacity of 100,000 tons of titanium dioxide per year, and companies with less than 50,000 tons have a combined production capacity of nearly 500,000 tons. If this part of production capacity is eliminated, it will reduce the industry's total production capacity by about 20%, and the supply-demand relationship will be improved.
At present, although the titanium dioxide market is in the traditional sense of the demand off-season, from the overall market perspective, the downstream demand is gradually recovering, and the traders and enterprises are recovering their stocking attitude. The market trading atmosphere has also been significantly improved. With regard to upstream raw materials, the accelerated implementation of environmental protection policies has led to a tight supply of the current titanium ore market, which has brought support to the titanium dioxide market. In addition, the downstream real estate and automobile industries continue to pick up, and demand for titanium dioxide has also picked up.
The brokerage research report believes that the company’s main rutile titanium dioxide, the total production capacity of nearly 260,000 tons. The company announced last year that it intends to acquire the industry leading Sichuan Longsheng, and after the completion of the acquisition, the cumulative production capacity will increase to 560,000 tons, and the market share will be close to 15%, ranking first in China and fourth in the world, with strong domestic product pricing. Self-sovereignty and industry discourse rights, the current acquisition plan has been approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission. The company also has the advantages of titanium ore-titanium slag-titanium dioxide in the whole industry chain, with significant cost advantages. According to the company’s latest announcement, the sales price of rutile titanium dioxide has been raised since August 2. In addition, China National Nuclear Titanium Dioxide, Jinpu Titanium Industry, and Annada, titanium dioxide production capacity also ranked in the forefront of the industry, will benefit from rising product prices.
2. Corrosion resistance: The pump body and impeller are made of high-strength cast iron with special treatment on the surface, which has excellent corrosion resistance.
3. High efficiency and energy saving: The impeller is made of high quality wear-resistant material, which has the feature of high efficiency and energy saving and can greatly reduce energy consumption.
4. Safe and reliable: There are multiple protection measures during the operation of the pump, such as overload protection, overheating protection, etc., which ensure the safe and reliable operation of the pump.
5. Wide application: cast iron pumps are suitable for various industrial fields, such as petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, textile, etc., and can convey various liquid media.
Titanium dioxide market ushered in the ninth round of price increases
On August 2nd, Sichuan Dragonfly, the leading titanium dioxide industry, raised its price again. It increased the domestic direct customers by 500 yuan/ton, the domestic distributors by 300 yuan/ton, and the international customers by 50 dollars/ton. At present, the titanium dioxide industry is in an off-season demand. The price adjustment of this leading company indicates that the market supply and demand pattern is better. Thanks to supply-side reforms and rising demand, this year's titanium dioxide market has seen nine rounds of price increases, with a cumulative increase of more than 30%.
