Ferrous sulfate monohydrate and Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate is a byproduct of Titanium Dioxide in sulfuric acid method. Every ton of Titanium dioxide produces 3 ~ 4 tons Ferrous Sulfate, so the production and sales of titanium dioxide mirror the price of ferrous sulfate indirectly.
At 2015 year, Manufacturer of ferrous sulfate influenced by the lack of raw materials of titanium dioxide. The price of ferrous sulfate raise a lot compare to the price in 2012-2014. Our country produce titanium dioxide by ourselves; Chine become the biggest exporter of titanium dioxide this recent years, about half of this product depends on exporting from India, Vietnam, Indonesia, especially Vietnam.
In addition, as Chinese government strengthening the development of environmental protection and the iron series pigments industry, the price of ferrous sulfate also soars all the time. Five years ago, the price of ferrous sulfate is less than one hundred RMB per ton. And to the end of the second quarter this year, it has gone up to 600-700 RMB/ton; even high as 700-800RMB/ton. This rise, in some degree, partly makes up some lost of raw materials and energy in titanium dioxide production.
