Sodium chlorate in China was mainly used to produce potassium chlorate in early days. The process for sodium chlorate production was outdated in the years before 1986. Graphite cationic electrolyzer, lead dioxide cationic electrolyzer and traditional metal cationic electrolyzer developed by China itself were used. These electrolyzers had many defects and restricted to a great extent the development of the sodium chlorate industry in China.Sodium chlorate prices have risen in recent weeks, fueled by tight supply and strong demand from the pulp and paper sector.Increased use of pulping and deinking chemicals will result from increased use of recycled paper fiber, because recycled materials need to have dyes, inks, and contaminants removed. Increased recycling will also boost demand for specialty additives. Wet-strength resins and sizes, which enhance paper strength and printability, and biocides and chelating agents, which remove contaminants from the final product, will all benefit from increasing use of recycled fibe |
