Abstracts

China has become the biggest titanium dioxide production country since 2009. From 2009 to 2013, domestic capacity of titanium dioxide increased from 1,766,000 t/a to 3,037,000 t/a, with a CAGR of 14.52%. China is one of the largest consumers of titanium dioxide in the world. Titanium dioxide made in China is mainly for domestic use. In 2013, its apparent consumption volume was about 1,782,062 tonnes. China has been a net exporter of titanium dioxide since 2010. From 2010 to 2013, the relevant export volume increased from327,308 tonnes to 449,224 tonnes, with a CAGR of 11.13%.

To help the development of chlorination process technology is a big opportunity in China's titanium dioxide industry. Facing the PEST factors in the outer environment, manufacturer respondents believed that technological factor plays the most important role in 2014- 2016. It is forecasted that domestic capacity of titanium dioxide will reach 3,150,000 t/a, while its output will hit 2,374,938 tonnes in 2018. To the downstream industries, the business of titanium dioxide is more popular in ink industry and plastic industry in the future.

Overall, China's titanium industry is worth expecting in the future.

Industrial affairs: In recent years, the consumption of titanium dioxide has been increasing in China. It's estimated that the consumption of titanium dioxide reached 1,782,062 tonnes in 2013. Meanwhile, its output increased to 1,987,300 tonnes.

China's position: Since 2009, China has become the biggest titanium dioxide production country. But the process technology still limits the high- end product production of titanium dioxide.
