In 2023–2024, China and the United States were the leading exporters of sodium chlorite (CAS 7758-19-2), collectively accounting for over 60% of global export value, while India, Germany, and South Korea ranked among the top importers. Sodium chlorite prices remained relatively stable during this period, supporting consistent procurement by water treatment and pulp & paper industries. Export volumes from China increased modestly year-on-year, while U.S. exports held steady, reflecting sustained demand in Asia and Europe amid flat-to-moderate growth in global sodium chlorite prices.
Sodium chlorite is a white or slightly yellowish crystalline solid, typically odorless and non-volatile, with a melting point of approximately 180 °C (decomposes before boiling). It is an inorganic chlorine oxyanion salt and a strong oxidizing agent. Sodium chlorite is primarily used as a precursor for chlorine dioxide generation in water treatment, pulp bleaching, and industrial disinfection systems. It serves as a key intermediate in the production of chlorine dioxide solutions and finds application in municipal and industrial water purification, textile processing, and food processing sanitation.
