Who is the customer group of inorganic chemical suppliers?

The main customer groups for suppliers of inorganic chemicals include the following three categories:
manufacturing
Inorganic chemicals are widely used in basic industries such as plastics, textiles, metallurgy, and building materials, and the production enterprises in these industries are the main customer groups. For example, inorganic acid chemicals such as sulfuric acid and nitric acid are mainly used in fertilizer production, while soda ash is used in glass manufacturing.  ‌
R&D institutions
Laboratories and research institutions need to use inorganic chemicals as reagents or raw materials when developing new products, and these customers have high requirements for product purity and stability. For example, inorganic salt chemicals are commonly used in drug synthesis in pharmaceutical research and development.  ‌
Energy and Resources Industry
The energy industries such as coal and petroleum require the use of inorganic chemicals (such as sulfuric acid for mineral processing) in their mining and processing processes, and major commodity importing countries (such as Brazil and Australia) are also important customers for inorganic chemicals.  ‌
