Description:

Currently, China’s sodium borohydride industry is facing overcapacity. Although the capacity in 2015 declined by 16.95% compared with that in 2014, it's still superfluous to the current demand. During 2011 and 2015, some producers exited from the industry because of intense competition and strict environmental protection requirements. In 2015, there were only less than 10 active producers in the country.



Still, it’s not easy for new entrants to get a foothold in the domestic market, since the top two producers have taken up the majority of the national output and export volume.



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 2015.Other fields, such as paper making and electronic products, consumed small volumes of the product.



CCM predicts in this report that electronic industry will be a promising application field for the future. In the electronic industry, sodium borohydride is mainly used to produce hydrogen fuel cells and liquid crystals. The consumption volume in this field was about 44 tonnes in 2015. Though the present market of sodium borohydride is small, the growth rate of its consumption will be high in the distant future.



What’s more, the market size of antibiotic has expanded to USD29.9 billion (RMB186.1 billion) in 2015, up by 8.4% YoY. As sodium borohydride can be the reducing agent of such antibiotics as macrolide and fluoroquinolones, CCM holds an optimistic attitude to the growth of its consumption.



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.
