From 2025 through mid‑2026, the global carbon dioxide market demonstrated steady growth amid seasonal fluctuations and regional supply variations. The global market was valued at approximately USD 11.90 billion in 2025, with projections reaching USD 16.30 billion by 2034 at a CAGR of 3.60%. In China, the world‘s largest CO₂ market, prices oscillated between 310‑340 RMB/ton in H1 2025, softened to 321 RMB/ton in Q4, and hit lows of 310 RMB/ton in early 2026 before recovering to 329 RMB/ton by mid‑June as summer demand for dry ice surged and intensive plant maintenance tightened supply. Regional price disparities remain significant, with Northeast China commanding the highest prices. Emerging applications — including EV battery cleaning and semiconductor manufacturing — are creating new demand drivers alongside traditional uses in food, beverage, and metal fabrication. The Asia‑Pacific region dominates with 46% market share. Looking ahead, seasonal strength and structural industrial grow

As a by-product of air separation, argon demand is mainly driven by metallurgy, PV and semiconductors. Regional supply-demand differentiation exists, with high-purity electronic argon remaining tight. Energy costs and plant maintenance cause periodic price volatility. The industry will shift toward high-purity localization, bringing steady long-term growth amid energy and carbon policy constraints.

With the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) officially implemented in 2026, China’s chemical exports face severe cost restructuring. High carbon tariffs not only squeeze profits for traditional products like fertilizers but will also impact high-value-added sectors such as organic chemicals. This article analyzes CBAM's impact and explores industry solutions: through energy decarbonization, regionalized supply chain layouts, and establishing robust carbon data management systems, Chinese chemical enterprises must accelerate their shift from "price competition" to "low-carbon competition." Embracing this green transformation is essential to crossing trade barriers and reshaping global competitiveness.

Nitrogen gas, comprising 78% of Earth‘s atmosphere, is a colorless, odorless inert gas with critical industrial importance. Its chemical inertness makes it invaluable across diverse sectors. In agriculture, nitrogen is the foundation of ammonia production via the Haber-Bosch process, supporting global fertilizer output; China alone produced over 77 million tons of synthetic ammonia in 2025. In food preservation, nitrogen displaces oxygen in modified atmosphere packaging to extend shelf life and prevent spoilage. The electronics industry relies on ultra-high-purity nitrogen as a protective and carrier gas in semiconductor manufacturing. Metal processing uses nitrogen as a shielding gas to prevent oxidation during welding and cutting. Pharmaceutical and healthcare applications include blanketing and cryopreservation. The global nitrogen gas market was valued at USD 47.4 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 81.2 billion by 2035, growing at 5.5% CAGR, driven by rising industrial o

Despite global challenges, China's chemical exports grew in 2026 amid structural divergence. Polyester and high-value intermediates lead the market, while traditional fertilizers shift focus. Exports mainly target Asia and Europe, though trade barriers persist. Competitiveness stems from massive scale, cost advantages, and filling overseas supply gaps. However, enterprises must navigate compliance risks, geopolitical uncertainties, and avoid price wars by enhancing technological innovation and brand value to sustain global growth.

The market will grow steadily amid energy and carbon policy risks.

Sodium hypochlorite (NaClO) is a versatile, high-efficiency inorganic disinfectant and bleaching agent, widely recognized as the core active ingredient of commercial bleach and disinfectant products. With broad-spectrum bactericidal performance, low cost and flexible application, it has become one o

From 2025 to the first half of 2026, the global potassium hydroxide (KOH) market displayed a clear trend of structural divergence. While raw material costs — particularly potassium chloride — rose significantly, the transmission to KOH prices varied by grade: 90% solid KOH saw an average annual increase of approximately 8.4%, whereas 48% liquid KOH recorded only a 0.5% rise. Industrial-grade KOH faces persistent overcapacity and weakening traditional demand in soaps and detergents, yet emerging sectors — including new energy batteries, electronics, and liquid fertilizers — are driving rapid growth in high-purity grades. Capacity expansions continue across key regions, especially China, while trade policies such as Japan’s anti-dumping review add complexity. By 2032, the premiumization trend between industrial and high‑purity KOH will intensify. For buyers, securing consistent quality and supply from a reliable partner is essential. HISEACHEM delivers high‑purity KOH, competitive pricin
