The white carbon black industry welcomes new opportunities in the field of new energy

With the vigorous development of the new energy vehicle industry, the white carbon black industry has ushered in new market opportunities. In new energy vehicles, each electric vehicle requires 5-8kg of high-end white carbon black (mainly used for tires and batteries), which has driven an annual demand increase of over 100000 tons for white carbon black. In addition, the 5G and semiconductor industries have also generated a huge demand for high-purity electronic grade white carbon black, with an annual growth rate of up to 25% and a unit price of 3-5 times that of ordinary products.

Dual wheel drive of policy and technology, accelerating the transformation and upgrading of the white carbon black industry
In recent years, the dual drive of policies and technology has become an important force for the transformation and upgrading of the white carbon black industry. In 2024, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology released the "Action Plan for High Quality Development of Inorganic Silicon Materials", which clearly stated that by 2026, the self-sufficiency rate of high-end white carbon black should be increased to 50%, and the energy consumption per unit output value should be reduced by 20%. At the same time, many local governments have also introduced supporting policies such as tax incentives. In terms of technology, the industry is accelerating its transformation towards intelligence and greenness, such as the "rice husk ash extraction white carbon black" technology developed by Black Cat Co., Ltd., which not only reduces raw material costs but also reduces carbon emissions.


The regional pattern of China's white carbon black industry presents the characteristic of "strengthening in the east and gradually expanding in the west"
The white carbon black industry in China shows a significant trend of being strong in the east and gradually expanding in the west. The East China region (such as Shandong and Jiangsu) relies on its chemical industry foundation and port advantages, accounting for 35% of the country's production capacity. Leading enterprises such as Quecheng Corporation and Jinneng Technology gather here. The South China region (such as Guangdong and Fujian) benefits from the demand for new energy vehicles and the electronics industry, with a leading growth rate in high-end white carbon black production capacity. The central and southwestern regions, on the other hand, rely on abundant quartz sand resources and have significant cost advantages, but their products are mainly in the mid to low end and urgently require technological upgrades.
