Sodium Thiocyanate Prices, Demand and Supply Overview
Sodium Thiocyanate prices in Germany, the highest-cost reporting region, rose 6.0% in H1 2026, climbing from USD 1.588/KG in Q1 to USD 1.683/KG in Q2 as acrylic fibre spinning bath procurement recovered following the Q1 2026 seasonal dip and sodium cyanide feedstock costs firmed across European producing markets. Globally, the average rose from USD 1.172/KG in Q1 to USD 1.242/KG in Q2, a 6.0% gain that built on steady firming through Q3 and Q4 2025. For H2 2026, a global average of USD 1.25-1.40/KG is expected, with continued support from acrylic fibre sector procurement recovery and sodium cyanide feedstock cost firming across Asian and European producers.
Sodium Thiocyanate (NaSCN) is produced commercially by reaction of sodium cyanide with elemental sulphur, or by the Desulco process combining carbon disulphide, ammonia, and sodium hydroxide, yielding a white crystalline solid with high water solubility and strong thiocyanate anion coordination chemistry properties used across multiple industrial and specialty chemical applications. The largest pull comes from acrylic fibre manufacturing, where sodium thiocyanate aqueous solution serves as the primary solvent in the wet spinning bath process for polyacrylonitrile dissolution, dope preparation, and fibre coagulation, with fibre producers in Asia and Europe as the dominant buyers. Textile processing applications for acrylic fibre dyeing bath auxiliaries, pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis including thiocyanate salt chemistry for active ingredient production, and photographic chemical manufacture add further demand. Specialty chemical synthesis uses in analytical reagent preparation, metal surface treatment, and electroplating bath formulations consume smaller but consistent volumes. Sodium cyanide or carbon disulphide input cost, acrylic fibre production output, and textile sector capacity utilisation all feed into the price.
Sodium Thiocyanate Price Forecast for 2026
The balance of supply and demand for Sodium Thiocyanate through H2 2026 leans moderately firm. Acrylic fibre spinning bath procurement maintained consistent buying across Asian and European fibre producers. Sodium cyanide input cost firming supported the production floor.
The main upside risk is a sodium cyanide or sulphur supply tightening raising production economics above the forecast range. The main downside risk is weaker-than-expected acrylic fibre production output or textile sector demand softness, which would ease spinning bath procurement and soften buying interest.
