Their major customers include Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. Anhydrous HF prices have already risen approximately 40% since the beginning of the year.
The Strait of Hormuz shipping disruption has cut global sulfur supplies by over 30%, driving up sulfuric acid prices and consequently raising costs for hydrofluoric acid production.
