Sodium Borohydride Market in China
Still, it's not easy for new entrants to get a foothold in the domestic market, since the top three producers have taken up the majority of the national output.
Sodium borohydride produced in China is mainly used within the country. As a selective reducing agent, sodium borohydride is mainly consumed in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, and these two fields accounted for the majority of the total consumption volume in 2020. Other fields, such as intermediates & fine chemicals and electronic products, consumed small volumes of the product.
Yet, sodium borohydride faces competition from substitutes, especially potassium borohydride, which has the same properties but has a lower price. In this report, more comprehensive information is provided.

Market dynamics
During 2010-2013, there were no new entrants into the sodium borohydride industry in China. In fact, the number of producers reduced, as some producers quit the market. The supply was slightly tight in 2013, which is claimed by the top four producers. As predicted, the tight supply will relieve after April or May of 2014.
The production of sodium borohydride in China is concentrated in the top xx producers, whose output accounted for about xx% of national total in 2013.
China's import volume of sodium borohydride has been small, with only about xx tonnes in 2013. China's export volume has been increasing in the past few years, mostly exported by Shandong Guobang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. The export volume usually takes up about xx% of the national output. India is the main export destination.

Production situation, 2009-2013
On the whole, the production capacities of sodium borohydride producers in China are small. Only the top three producers have production capacities of xx t/a or above.
The top three producers accounted for xx% of the total output in China in 2013. They are Shandong Guobang, Shanghai Shenyu and Jiangsu Jinyuan. Together with Jiangsu Zhangjiagang Aixin Chemical Co., Ltd., they are well-known major producers in China, and are referred to as the major sources of sodium borohydride by many domestic end-users. Other small producers with a capacity around xx t/a can only grab very small market shares, and their production lines are idled most of the time.
