Market Overview   For the Quarter Ending March
2021   North America   The US freezing storm
disrupted industrial activities of the US Texas
region for almost two months. Most of the plants
were down amidst this winter freeze, it is
estimated that, more than 7.37 of LNG output was
totally halted due this extreme cold. Hence the
production of Hydrogen was also reduced with
shortage of feedstock Methane, across the region.
Although the domestic demand for Hydrogen
remained high, tight supply further supported the
prices of LNG. Get more info https//www.chemana

Asia Pacific   Reduced cargoes from the USA amid
bad weather conditions created a global supply
shortage of Potassium chloride. In India, key
fertilizers manufacturers hiked the prices
steeply ahead of the upcoming kharif season.
Overall, the region observed robust demand due to
tight supplies which struggled to keep pace as
agricultural activities ramped up after the
vaccine rollout. The FOB Shanghai prices for
April deliveries were surged to USD 400/MT.    
        Europe   MOP supplies in Europe were
stable during the first quarter, as plant
operations were reported sluggish throughout the
quarter due to the extreme weather conditions and
suppressed agricultural output. Around 3.2 MTPA
capacity addition of Potassium Chloride capacity
is estimated to come onstream in the upcoming
quarter that raised the buyers sentiments.
Demand remained largely suppressed as the
offtakes from the agricultural market declined
due to unsuitable cold weather. Some stocks were
redirected to United States due to stronger
demand. How we can help ChemAnalyst addresses

• About
• Potassium chloride, also known as Sylvite or
  potassium salt, it is a metal halide salt
  composed of potassium and chloride. It is
  colorless and odorless or somewhat of white
  crystalline solid it is readily soluble in water
  and its solutions have a salt like odor. As it
  generally occurs as the mineral sylvite and in
  combination with sodium chloride it is known as
  sylvinite. It is generally used in making
  fertilizers, called potash, there are generally
  two types of potash one is muriate of potash
  (MOP) and another one is sulphate of potash. It
  can be used as a salt substitute for food, but
  due to its weak, bitter, it is often mixed with
  ordinary table salt (sodium chloride) to improve
  the taste to form low sodium salt. Complaints of
  bitterness or a chemical or metallic taste are
  also reported with potassium chloride used in
  food. It is also used in medicine, t is used as a
  supplement in animal feed to boost the number of
  nutrients in the feed, It is sometimes used in
  water as a completion fluid in petroleum and
  natural gas operations, as well as being an
  alternative to sodium chloride in household water
  softener units.
