The BIT market is highly concentrated. Chinese products are mainly exported.

BIT is called 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one. It is a new generation of important broad-spectrum preservatives. It has broad-spectrum and long-lasting ability to kill a variety of bacteria, fungi and yeasts, and is compatible with various Emulsifiers, surfactants and other ingredients have good compatibility and can be miscible with alcohol and water in any proportion. BIT fungicide has low toxicity, does not contain heavy metals and halogen compounds, is stable to amine compounds, does not contain formaldehyde, and has low odor.

BIT mainly uses halogenated benzonitrile as raw material and is synthesized through two steps of sulfidation and chlorination. The synthesis yield of Bio-Chemical’s production process has reached the industry’s advanced level, and the resulting product has high purity, light color, and extremely competitive quality. Advantage.

As a high-grade fungicide, BIT fungicide is widely used in water-soluble resin coatings (latex paint), latex products, acrylic polymers, polyurethane products, photographic lotions, oil products, papermaking, inks, etc. in developed markets such as Europe, the United States, and Japan. Among leather products and water treatment agents, the domestic market is relatively small. Therefore, most of the BIT fungicides produced in China are exported. According to the 《2022-2026 BIT released by the Industrial Research Center Industry in-depth market research and investment strategy recommendation report》 shows that China’s BIT fungicide production in 2021 Nearly 10,000 tons.

As an important global fungicide manufacturer, China has strong production capabilities in the field of BIT fungicides and has many manufacturing companies. Among them, Bio-Chemical, as the largest BIT fungicide manufacturer in China, has actively improved its production processes and Expand the industrial chain upstream and lay out the o-chlorobenzonitrile production line, making it highly competitive in the domestic and even global BIT fungicide market. In addition, companies such as Shouguang Xintai Fine Chemical Co., Ltd. and Foshan Lanfeng Auxiliary Co., Ltd. also have certain production capabilities, but their production scale is relatively small and their competitiveness is not strong.

Industry analysts said that industrial fungicides have good effects in killing and inhibiting the growth of microorganisms and are widely used in industrial water treatment , crude oil mining, papermaking, daily chemicals, coatings and other industries. With the continuous development of China’s economy, China has now become the world’s second largest industrial fungicide market. In the future, the domestic industrial market will continue to develop, and the requirements for safety and environmental protection will continue to increase, which will drive the rapid growth of demand for BIT fungicides.
