The company is committed to providing high-performance, eco-friendly fluorochemical solutions for global customers. Changzhou Jiayuan Chemical will continue to deepen its fluorochemical industrial chain, advance technological upgrading and industrialization of green fluorosolvents, and boost the sustainable development of the whole industry. The boric acid market has maintained an overall steady and strong trend recently. Monitoring data indicates that as of July 13, the latest price of boric acid increased by approximately 4% compared with 30 days earlier, with a cumulative gain of over 6% over the past 60 days. Nevertheless, short-term technical indicators show that the negative spread between the 10-day and 20-day moving averages of imported boric acid continued to widen on July 13, signaling periodic adjustment pressure after a sustained price rally.In terms of imports, China’s total imports of boric acid hit 35,663.935 tons in March 2026, rising 24.6% month-on-month and surging 57.6% year-on-year. Cumulative imports from January to March reached 89,363.733 tons, representing a year-on-year growth of 21.7%. Imports climbed further to 39,140.641 tons in April, bringing the total import volume for January–April to 128,504.374 tons, up 16.7% year-on-year. Industry analysts forecast that as demand from multiple downstream sectors continues to expand, China’s average selling price of boric acid will maintain a steady upward trajectory throughout 2026.From the perspective of industry background, boric acid is a vital inorganic chemical raw material, commonly known as "industrial monosodium glutamate". The global production of boric acid is highly concentrated, with major producing countries including Turkey, the United States, Russia, Chile, China, Peru and Argentina. A mining firm in Turkey controls approximately 73% of the world’s economically mineable boron reserves.As of 2024, the global output of boric acid stood at around 1.5089 million tons, while global demand reached roughly 1.4521 million tons. The global boric acid market size was valued at USD 1.15–1.26 billion in 2025, and is projected to expand to a range of USD 1.6–2.0 billion between 2030 and 2035.For China, domestic boric acid output hit about 276,000 tons in 2024, whereas domestic demand amounted to 595,100 tons, resulting in a high reliance on imports. Imports totalled 322,300 tons that year, a year-on-year increase of 25.9%, mainly imported from Turkey, the United States, Russia and Chile. China’s boron resources are primarily distributed in Liaoning, Qinghai, Xizang and other regions, and domestic output is expected to rise by around 3.1% year-on-year in 2026. In terms of downstream applications, boric acid boasts an extremely wide range of uses, covering multiple key sectors of the national economy including industry, agriculture, pharmaceuticals and nuclear energy:  Glass and fiberglass are the largest downstream market of boric acid, accounting for 36.18% of global boric acid demand in 2025. Boric acid can enhance the heat resistance, chemical stability and mechanical strength of glass in glass manufacturing. Typical products include: borosilicate glass (such as laboratory utensils, heat-resistant kitchen utensils, optical glass), boric acid can reduce the melting temperature of glass and improve processing performance; fiberglass, boric acid reduces energy consumption during melting and improves the thermal insulation performance and flame retardant properties of finished products; liquid crystal display glass, high-purity boric acid is used to improve the durability and transparency of glass; in addition, it is also used for high-grade glass products such as optical glass, acid-resistant glass and organoboron glass.The ceramic and enamel industries represent another important application field. As a flux and network former in ceramic glazes and enamels, boric acid can lower the melting temperature and viscosity of glazes, reduce thermal expansion, prevent cracking and glaze peeling, and boost the gloss, fastness and mechanical strength of finished products. Meanwhile, boric acid also serves as a key raw material for lead-free glazes.In the flame retardant sector, boric acid and its derivatives (such as zinc borate) feature excellent thermal stability, low toxicity and outstanding smoke suppression performance, so they are widely applied for flame retardant treatment of plastics, rubber, coatings, textile fibers, wood and other materials. Borates can alter the oxidation reaction of materials and facilitate the formation of a carbonized layer on the surface to achieve effective flame retardancy.The electronics and semiconductor sector is one of the fastest-growing market segments, with a projected compound annual growth rate of 6.51% by 2031. Boric acid is adopted to produce high-purity borosilicate glass and acts as a critical raw material for manufacturing semiconductor devices and display panels. It also functions as a flux and dielectric stabilizer in electronic components. High-purity boric acid is additionally applied in the new energy battery industry, and the explosive growth of new energy vehicles has driven up demand for boric acid in energy storage batteries.In agriculture, boron is one of the essential trace elements for crops. Applied directly as boron fertilizer, boric acid replenishes boron in soil, prevents boron deficiency in crops such as rapeseed and fruit trees, and can raise the oil content of rapeseeds. It is commonly used as seed fertilizer, foliar spray or a component of water-soluble fertilizers.In the medical and health field, boric acid is a mild antiseptic and disinfectant with inhibitory effects on bacteria and fungi and low irritation. It is widely used for irrigation and wet compresses on the skin, nasal cavity, oral cavity and other parts, and also for preparing external preparations such as boric acid ointment and boric acid lotion.The nuclear industry represents a high-end application direction for boric acid. Enriched boric acid (with boron-10 abundance increased to over 96%) acts as a neutron absorber in nuclear power plants. It chemically controls the chain reaction in reactor cores and serves as a stabilizer to guarantee nuclear safety. China has realized independent research, development and domestic production of nuclear-grade boric acid, with the localization rate rising to more than 60% in 2025.Other application fields include: additives and fluxes in the metallurgical industry for manufacturing high-hardness boron steel; bleaching agents and mordants in detergents and cleaners; insulation treatment of flame-resistant fibers and fabric finishing in the textile industry; as well as wood preservation, cosmetics, photographic chemicals and more.Industry insiders predict that with the continuous surging demand from high-end sectors including semiconductors, new energy and nuclear industry, high-purity and special boric acid products will become the major driving force of market growth. Jiayuan Company supplies high-purity boric acid with purity above 99.9%, with abundant stock availability, rich export experience and reliable quality.
