December China bismuth trioxide exports retreated [SMM data]

Published: Feb 9, 2026 15:25
According to customs data, China's bismuth trioxide exports in December 2025 were 570.97 tons, while the export volume in November was 720.17 tons. Compared with November, the export volume in December decreased significantly. Market participants pointed out that based on the overall trend in export volumes, monthly exports of domestic bismuth oxide showed an upward trend from September to November. In October and November, exports returned to over 600 tons, basically reaching normal levels. Although exports in December declined somewhat, they remained above 500 tons. This indicates that bismuth oxide producers are still actively exporting, and overseas demand has not significantly decreased.

Titanium Market Diverged After the Holiday, Titanium Dioxide Leads the Gains While Titanium Products Steadily Recover [SMM Titanium Weekly Review]
[SMM Titanium Weekly Review: Titanium Market Diverged Post-Holiday, Titanium Dioxide Led Gains While Titanium Products Steadily Recovered] This week, the titanium industry chain showed divergent performance. Titanium concentrate operated steadily, with mines awaiting new March orders. Sentiment for titanium dioxide price hikes remained strong, led by the chloride process; high sulphuric acid costs supported expectations for price increases, though actual implementation still depends on demand follow-through. Titanium slag was in the doldrums, under cost pressure, with prices consolidating at the bottom. Sponge titanium saw weak supply and demand, prices held steady, and future performance relies on downstream restocking to boost recovery. The titanium products market recovered steadily, mainly driven by rigid demand restocking, and is expected to stabilize next week.
