(April 23, 2026) Today, the domestic silica market has operated relatively smoothly. The price adjustment cycle triggered by the increase in raw material costs earlier in the year has come to an end, and the prices of all product categories have stabilized at a high level.


As of the latest quotes, the benchmark price for general-purpose silica produced by the precipitation method is 6066.67 yuan per ton, while the mainstream quotes for rubber-specific grades range from 6300 to 7000 yuan per ton. The prices of high-end products produced by the gas-phase method remain strong, and market supply is somewhat tight. The prices of upstream raw materials such as sulfuric acid and soda ash remain high, providing sufficient support for costs.


The demand from downstream industries such as tires and silicone rubber is stable, and the domestic procurement pace is even. Orders for high-end products for export continue to increase, indicating a positive trend in export demand.


Industry experts predict that there will be no significant price fluctuations in the short term. The structural differences among products will remain evident, with the market for high-end, specialty silica showing greater vitality. The pace of green industrial upgrading is also continuing to accelerate.
