In the period January-August of this year, the production of chromium anhydride increased by 1.7 times, which is due to the restoration of production of Aktobe Plant of Chromium Compounds JSC (AZKHZ JSC) and an increase in exports of products (by 40.1% from 6443 tons in January-July 2020 to 9027 tons in January-July 2021).
The main domestic manufacturer of these products is JSC "AZHS".
It should be noted that in connection with the accident in May 2020, JSC "AZHS" suspended production. After major repairs and the launch of a new workshop for the production of chromium pigment oxide, the plant's capacity was increased in 2021.
Chromium anhydride is a strong oxidizing agent, has a wide application in industry. For example, it is used to produce highly purified electrolytic chromium, to create superhard materials and other purposes.
