In the rapidly evolving landscape of clean energy and advanced metallurgy, Sodium Potassium Molten Salt (primarily a binary mixture of Sodium Nitrate and Potassium Nitrate) has emerged as the definitive medium for Thermal Energy Storage (TES). As a premier China Sodium Potassium Molten Salt supplier and exporter, we provide the critical chemical infrastructure required for 24/7 Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants, high-precision metal heat treatment, and next-generation nuclear reactor cooling systems.
The global industrial status of molten salt is currently experiencing an unprecedented surge. With international commitments to carbon neutrality, the shift from fossil fuels to renewable storage is no longer optional—it is a commercial imperative. Large-scale CSP projects across the Middle East, North Africa (MENA), and the Southwestern United States rely on high-purity molten salts to store solar thermal energy during the day and release it at night, bridging the gap that traditional photovoltaics cannot fill.
Enabling Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants to generate electricity around the clock with efficient thermal retention.
Widely used in chemical processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing for precise temperature control up to 600°C.
Essential for the heat treatment, tempering, and descaling of specialized alloys and automotive components.
Founded in 1974, Henan Yongchang Nitro Fertilizer has evolved over half a century from a debt-laden startup into a modern chemical industry leader with an annual production capacity exceeding one million metric tons. Our integrated industrial matrix combines:
Spanning from foundational chemical production to modern agricultural solutions, we deliver end-to-end value across industrial chains.
The global Sodium Potassium Molten Salt market is projected to grow significantly as industrial decarbonization accelerates. We are seeing three major trends: 1. Demand for ultra-high purity grades (99.9%+) to prevent corrosion in solar receivers; 2. The rise of "Solar Salt" blends (60% NaNO3 / 40% KNO3) as the industry standard for thermal stability; 3. Large-scale procurement by EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) companies looking for reliable Chinese manufacturers who can handle bulk logistics of 50,000+ metric tons per project.
Procurement departments in Europe and North America are increasingly focusing on supply chain resilience. As a China-based factory with vertically integrated nitric acid production, we mitigate the risks of raw material price volatility, offering a stable pricing model that few other global exporters can match. This stability is crucial for long-term renewable energy projects that operate on decades-long timelines.

Why is Henan Yongchang the preferred China Sodium Potassium Molten Salt exporter? It comes down to Scale, Speed, and Sophistication. Our massive production capacity allows us to fulfill orders that smaller regional players simply cannot. Furthermore, our proximity to major logistical hubs in China ensures that our export lead times are minimized, reaching global ports with maximum efficiency.
But it isn't just about quantity. Our investment in a "National-Level R&D Center" means we are continuously optimizing the molecular structure of our molten salts to increase heat absorption capacity and reduce the freezing point, extending the operational window of our clients' industrial systems.
Powered by our National-Level R&D Center, we lead through three innovation pillars:
● Proprietary Dual-Pressure Nitric Acid Process reduces energy consumption.
● Maintains Top 3 global production scale.
● Pioneered nitrogen-phosphorus delayed-release technology, boosting crop absorption.
● 100+ customized formulas.
● Full-cycle services from soil testing to precision fertilization.
For over five decades, we have accumulated extensive management expertise, developed a robust management framework, and secured both domestic and international accreditations including ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and FAMI-QS standards.
Implementing our "Localized Service + Global Footprint" strategy, we operate a worldwide sales network covering 20+ countries, ensuring high-purity molten salt reaches your facility exactly when needed.
Embracing the "Dual-Circulation" development paradigm, we are:
Investing substantially in a digital factory (fully operational by 2025) to automate molten salt blending and purity monitoring with AI precision.
Developing green nitric acid production targeting a 30% carbon reduction, ensuring our molten salts are truly "green" from the source.
With Chinese ingenuity at its core, Henan Yongchang is writing an Eastern legend on the global chemical map. We transcend borders with world-class quality and bridge continents through innovative solutions.
