Sulphuric acid
post
replies:
the acid was produced worldwide but China was the lead exporter.
"Last year, they exported close to 5 million tonnes for the first time," she said.
In 2025, about 73 million tonnes of sulphur were produced globally.
For context. China makes more than anyone else, but still only a minority of the world's supply.

Wouldn't that claim depend on how much they used domestically? Still, if they mostly produced it for domestic use and then exported the resulting products, then the world wouldn't really care much about the change. Except perhaps because raw sulfur exports have also suffered shortages over the last ~3 months.
Bah! I make this stuff in my stomach!
