The specifications of captan technical exported in H1 2013 included 92% captan technical, 95% captan technical and 97% captan technical. Of the three specifications of captan technical, the export volume of 95% captan technical was much larger than the others, reaching about 187.25 tonnes and accounting for 57.22% of the total export volume of captan technical.

The export price of captan formulations was USD6.27/kg in H1 2013, much higher than the USD4.71/kg in H1 2012, mainly boosted by the large export volume of 80% captan WDG (its price was higher than 50% captan WP). The export price of 80% captan WDG remained at USD7.5/kg in early 2013, but it declined to USD5.8/kg in June.
