The market demand for triphenyltin chloride is increasingly strong and the industry concentration is low

Triphenyltin chloride, also known as triphenyltin chloride, has the chemical formula (C6H5)3ClSn and is an organic compound. Triphenyltin chloride appears as white or light yellow powder crystals with a pungent odor. It is easily soluble in organic solvents such as xylene, benzene and ethanol, but insoluble in water. Triphenyltin chloride contains tin element and has antibacterial ability. It can be used as a broad-spectrum fungicide to prevent and control rice flax leaf spot, sugar beet brown spot, etc.

The metal sodium method is the main preparation method of triphenyltin chloride. It uses metal sodium as the main raw material, adds toluene and chlorobenzene, and reacts to obtain phenyl sodium, then adds tin tetrachloride, and undergoes displacement reaction, recovery, hydrolysis, Tetraphenyltin is obtained through filtration, drying and other processes. Finally, tin tetrachloride is added and the finished product is obtained through its own oxidation-reduction reaction. In recent years, with in-depth research, my country’s triphenyltin chloride preparation technology has continued to improve, and its production costs have continued to decrease, which provides favorable conditions for the development of the triphenyltin chloride industry.

The main raw materials of triphenyltin chloride include metallic sodium, toluene, chlorobenzene and tin tetrachloride. my country is the world’s largest producer of sodium metal. In 2022, my country’s sodium metal production capacity will reach 194,000 tons, accounting for nearly 80% of the world’s total production capacity. China Salt Chemical, Northern Copper, Xuetian Salt, Lily, etc. are the main manufacturers of sodium metal in my country. According to corporate data released by China Salt Chemical, the company’s sodium metal production capacity will reach 65,000 tons in 2022, accounting for 32% of global production capacity. The advantages of raw materials have laid a good foundation for the development of my country’s triphenyltin chloride industry.

According to the “2023-2028 China triphenyltin chloride industry market in-depth research and development prospect forecast report released by the Industrial Research Center 》 shows that as a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, triphenyltin chloride can be used to prevent and control crop diseases and insect pests. my country is a large agricultural country with rich types of crops and a huge planting area. Taking potatoes as an example, according to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, my country’s potato output will reach 18.309 million tons in 2021, and the planting area will reach 4,606,000 hectares. Triphenyltin chloride can be used to prevent and control potato late blight. With the rapid development of downstream industries, its market demand is increasingly strong.

There are many triphenyltin chloride manufacturers in my country. The market is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, and the industry concentration is low. Zhaoyuan Songhe Chemical Co., Ltd., Zhaoyuan Hongxin Chemical Co., Ltd., Shanghai Tuosi Chemical Co., Ltd., Qingdao Tianshi Chemical Co., Ltd., etc. are the main participants in my country’s triphenyltin chloride market. Among them, Hongxin Chemical’s annual production capacity of triphenyltin chloride reaches 600 tons.

         Industry analysts said that triphenyltin chloride has antibacterial capabilities and is widely used in the agricultural field as a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent. Driven by market demand, the development space of my country’s triphenyltin chloride industry continues to expand. Benefiting from the sufficient supply of raw materials and continuous technological advancement, the quality and output of triphenyltin chloride in my country have continued to improve. It is expected that companies with high-quality triphenyltin chloride production capabilities will occupy more market space in the future.
