disinfection, animal husbandry, aquaculture, among others.
The product is recognized as a national essential new product by five
ministries and commissions, including the Ministry of Science and Technology of
the People's Republic of China.

novel coronavirus, Sinopec imminently instructed the Company to adjust
production and ensure a sufficient supply.
On January 24, 2020, Chinese New Year's Eve, Sinopec-SK Wuhan Petrochemical
Company dispatched eight 30-ton platform trucks to transport 200 tons of
