Dimethyl sulfoxide industry in China after 2021 driven by the dual factors of export and domestic demand rapid development

It can be used as organic solvent, reaction medium and organic synthesis intermediate. It is widely used. This product has a high selective extraction capacity, and is used as the polymerization and condensation solvent of acrylic resin and polysulfone resin, the polymerization and extraction solvent of polyacrylonitrile and acetic acid fiber, the extraction solvent for the separation of alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons, the extraction of aromatic hydrocarbons and butadiene, the spinning of acrylic fiber, plastic solvent, and the reaction medium of organic synthetic dyes, pharmaceuticals and other industries. In medicine, dimethyl sulfoxide has anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, and has strong penetration to the skin. Therefore, it can dissolve certain drugs, so that such drugs can penetrate into the human body to achieve therapeutic purposes. This carrier property of dimethyl sulfoxide can also be used as an additive of pesticides. A small amount of dimethyl sulfoxide is added to some pesticides to help them penetrate into plants and improve their efficacy. Dimethyl sulfoxide can also be used as the dyeing solvent, dye remover and dyeing carrier of synthetic fibers, as well as the absorbent for recovering acetylene and sulfur dioxide, as well as the modifier of synthetic fibers, antifreeze, capacitor medium, brake oil, rare metal extractant, etc.
　　Dimethyl sulfoxide industry in China is developing rapidly driven by both export and domestic demand factors
　　Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is a sulfur-containing organic compound with characteristics of flammability, high hygroscopicity, high boiling point and high polarity, and is known as a "universal solvent". DMSO is used as a solvent and reaction reagent with high selective extraction ability, and can be used as an extraction solvent for the separation of alkanes and aromatic hydrocarbons; as a solvent for polyurethane synthesis and filament extraction; as a solvent for the synthesis of polyamide, fluorochloroaniline, polyimide and polysulfone resins, etc.
　　DMSO can be classified into topical grade, industrial grade, pharmaceutical grade, reagent grade, electronic grade, etc. DMSO itself has certain medical effects and can be used in topical medicine to reduce swelling, pain and stasis; in industry, it is mainly used as a reactant for organic chemical synthesis and pharmaceutical intermediates synthesis, which can improve the yield of reactants and shorten the reaction time; pharmaceutical grade DMSO is used as a reaction solvent for pharmaceutical and intermediate synthesis; it is also used as a solvent for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and intermediates. DMSO is used as a solvent for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and intermediates; reagent grade DMSO is used for chemical analysis; electronic grade DMSO is mainly used for the cleaning of electronic circuit boards after etching and the production of rare earth metals for users.
　　According to the "China Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Market Analysis and Development Prospects Research Report 2021-2025" released by the NewSI Industry Research Center, as far as the global market is concerned, the main production units of dimethyl sulfoxide in the world are Alkema (France), Gaylord (USA), TFC (Japan), etc., among which the products produced by TFC (Japan) are of high quality and can be applied in The electronic material field has, in the field of the market accounted for a relatively high. China is the world's leading producer of dimethyl sulfoxide, with more than ten large-scale enterprises, such as Panjin Far Eastern Xinxing Chemical, Shandong Yanmarine Lunan Chemical Fertilizer Plant, Xingfa Chemical, etc., of which Xingfa Group has an effective capacity of dimethyl sulfoxide in 40,000 tons / year.
　　In terms of the current market development, dimethyl sulfoxide market demand continues to climb with the development of downstream industries due to the wide range of applications of dimethyl sulfoxide. And with the further development of chemical and pharmaceutical industries in India, South Korea, Japan and other Asian countries, the demand for DMSO will further grow, providing space for China's DMSO exports. In previous years, Asian countries for DMSO demand mainly rely on imports from the United States and France and other countries, but with the improvement of China's DMSO production technology, domestic products have quality, price, geographic location and other competitive advantages, becoming the main export countries of DMSO in Asia. In addition to the export market, by the development of the third generation of quinolone antibacterial drugs, as well as the development of carbon fiber and electronics industry, the domestic DMSO market demand is also growing, the future of the DMSO industry as a whole to the good.
　　New industry analysts said, dimethyl sulfoxide as a "universal solvent" a wide range of applications, and with its production, application technology innovation, its application areas are still expanding, the industry has good prospects for development. In terms of production, China has become a major producer and exporter of dimethyl sulfoxide, and the products can not only meet domestic demand, but also be exported to South Korea, India and other countries. In the future, driven by both export and domestic demand, China's dimethyl sulfoxide industry will be rapidly developed.
