The import of aminohydroxynaphthalenesulphonic acids and salts to Brazil has seen a significant decline over the past five years, from 170.66 thousand kilograms in 2017 to 14.5 thousand kilograms in 2021. This represents a remarkable reduction, with an average annual decline (CAGR) of approximately 39.6%. The year-on-year variations show consistent decreases, indicating an ongoing downward trend.

Future trends to watch for include:

The impact of Brazil's industrial policies on import substitution, which might further decrease dependence on imported chemicals.
Potential shifts in global trade dynamics that could alter Brazil's sourcing strategies and import volumes.
Technological advancements in local industries potentially reducing the necessity for imports as domestic production capacities improve.
