China and Germany are the leading exporters of copper chloride dihydrate, accounting for the largest shares of global shipments in recent years, while the United States, India, and South Korea represent the top importing countries. Trade volumes have remained relatively stable through 2023–2024, with modest regional shifts in sourcing and no significant volatility observed in copper chloride dihydrate prices.
Copper chloride dihydrate is a blue-green crystalline solid at room temperature, odorless and non-volatile, with a melting point of approximately 100 °C (with decomposition). It is an inorganic metal salt and a hydrated transition-metal chloride. Primarily used as a catalyst and precursor in chemical synthesis, it serves as a key intermediate in the production of other copper-based compounds, including copper oxide and copper-containing pigments. Its main application areas include electroplating electrolytes, wood preservatives, and as a reagent in organic synthesis—particularly in Ullmann-type coupling reactions—and in the manufacture of dyes and pigments.
