Tungsten Oxide Price Forecasts & Market Foresight Q3 2026
Outlook: Bearish to Strongly Bearish
Confidence: High
Tungsten oxide prices are expected to face sharp correction during Q3 2026, pressured by weak specialty steel demand and comfortable global inventory levels. China’s domestic market likely witnesses deepest correction in July-August from reduced alloy production and summer industrial slowdowns, extending through Q3.
China’s export market anticipated to demonstrate bearish to strongly bearish sentiment from constrained international demand and inventory liquidation pressures. Global supply abundant from tungsten ore processing at underutilized refinery capacity. Limited support expected until autumn specialty steel demand accelerates substantially.

Tungsten Oxide Price Trend Q2 2026
In Q2 2026, global Tungsten Oxide prices have surged as severe Chinese processing constraints and robust chemical sector demand have created exceptional tightness across all major markets. Dual-Use Items Catalog implementation and environmental inspections severely limited output while concentrate availability tightened dramatically, disrupting supply chains through April and May.
Catalyst and specialty chemical demand has remained exceptionally firm throughout the quarter, adding further pressure on tight supply. The Tungsten Oxide Price Chart captured this steep upward trajectory during the first two months.
Toward the end of the quarter, speculative position liquidations and improved concentrate flows have started easing supply pressure. The Tungsten Oxide Price Index has begun reflecting correction, with June 2026 prices weakening though the quarterly advance remained substantial.
China: Tungsten Oxide Export prices FOB Shanghai, China; Grade- Purity: 99.95%min
In Q2 2026, Tungsten Oxide Price Trend in China has recorded a 24.97% increase, reflecting severe supply constraints and robust chemical sector demand. The Tungsten Oxide Price in China surged as China’s Dual-Use Items Catalog export controls and environmental inspections limited processing output during April and May.
Domestic catalyst and specialty chemical manufacturers sustained robust consumption. Concentrate feedstock availability tightened significantly, supporting oxide price floors. Export licensing delays limited international supply flows. Inventory levels at major consuming facilities trended sharply lower through the quarter.
However, in June 2026, Tungsten Oxide Prices in China have declined by 8.96%, as speculative position liquidations and improved concentrate flows started easing supply pressure, with market participants noting volatile but stabilizing sentiment through month end.
