  • Resumen
    • The TiO 2 market has been volatile in the past two years: "I would say that 2011 was definitely a year of almost panic buying on the side of the customers and I think that 2012 was a year of massive destocking from the customers, [when] the world didn't come to an end," said Huntsman.

      "While the company has experienced some moderation in the cost of feedstock ore procured in 2013 as compared to 2012, the company's results in the first quarter of 2013 will continue to be adversely impacted by the higher cost of feedstock ore procured in 2012," Kronos said.

      "Chloride slag hasn't moved much at all either - it's about $1,500/tonne and sulphate slags are lower than chloride slags by about $200/tonne, roughly. Rutile is the one that really has come down quite a bit. You remember, it was $2,200-3,200/tonne a year ago and right now, you're seeing it at parity with the chloride slags on a contained-titanium basis," said Huntsman.
