China and Germany are the leading exporters of Potassium peroxymonosulfate (CAS 70693-62-8), accounting for the largest share of global shipments in recent years, while the United States, South Korea, and India represent the top importing markets. Trade volumes have remained relatively stable through 2023–2024, with modest growth in imports by Southeast Asian countries coinciding with upward pressure on Potassium peroxymonosulfate prices amid tightening supply chains for specialty oxidants.
Potassium peroxymonosulfate is a white to off-white crystalline solid, typically supplied as a stable triple salt (2KHSO₅·KHSO₄·K₂SO₄), with no significant odor and low volatility. It is an inorganic oxidizing agent, classified as a peroxyacid salt, and decomposes before melting (typically above 100 °C). It is widely used as a powerful, selective oxidant in chemical synthesis—particularly for epoxidation, sulfoxidation, and N-oxidation reactions—and serves as a key intermediate in the production of specialty chemicals. Its primary application areas include pharmaceuticals (e.g., active pharmaceutical ingredient synthesis), agrochemicals (e.g., pesticide intermediates), and fine chemicals for dyes and polymer modifiers.
