Guangzhou, Guangdong -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/25/2011 -- Sodium hypophosphite is mainly used for Electroless Nickel (EN), chemical intermediate like hypo phosphorous acid, reducing agent, analytical reagent, polymerization catalyst, polymer stabilizer and flame Retardant, etc.

Factors influencing the development of sodium hypophosphite are mainly: price of yellow phosphorus, related resources and environment policies, technology and supply-demand relation.

The price of yellow phosphorus fluctuated in the past few months, which would have some impact on the price of sodium hypophosphite since yellow phosphorus is the major raw material of sodium hypophosphite.

China’s phosphorus resource is the second largest in the world, only next to Morocco. However, as phosphorus resource is irreplaceable and nonrenewable and the awareness of low-carbon prevails, government has set limitations on exploitation of the resources.

Advanced countries has applied the technology of electroless plating while China still applies the traditional technology of electroplating and coating which produces lots of waste. The application of sodium hypophosphite in overseas countries is mainly in high-end industry with stable demand. Major demand is come from domestic market. Both the demand and the environment ask for the advancement of the technology.

How will sodium hypophosphite develop with those changing factors? Please refer to CCM’s new report - Global Consumption of Sodium Hypophosphite in 2010, which is good reference of market intelligence, for both upstream and downstream buyers, sellers, traders and market participants who want to keep abreast of the latest dynamics of Sodium Hypophosphite.

The report probes into the reserves and exploitation of phosphorus ore, International trade, related policies, demand and end use markets, production and consumption of Sodium Hypophosphite. It also introduces yellow phosphorus consumption in major countries, pricing trends, supply and demand and import-export situation and make a forecast to the next five years.
