Industrial Chemicals
The industrial chemicals industry is one of the largest economic sectors in Argentina. There are significant business opportunities for U.S. exporters, especially in the area of agricultural chemicals and fertilizers, paints, its components and additives, and specific under-exploited products.
Market Overview
Importers of chemicals are constantly searching for alternate sources of the quasi-commodities demanded by local industry. The best opportunities are in areas not currently developed in Argentina. For example, there is no production of potassium and phosphorous derivatives in Argentina. Likewise, in the mining industry there are opportunities related to explosives, flotation agents, and surface-active agents used in the processing of by-products related to gold and copper mining. Additional opportunities can be found in glycols (ethylene derivatives) and many types of synthetic rubber.
