Last week, the market price of chemical products in the Southwest China market was as follows:
The “triphenyl†market was highly volatile and prices continued to rise. The southwest ** market has a narrow range of fluctuations, the downstream demand is still acceptable, the market talks are generally in the atmosphere, buyers have a certain wait-and-see sentiment, demand-based buying is the main reason, traders are shipping normally, and prices are rising steadily; the toluene and xylene markets are affected by oil prices. With the upward push, sellers’ confidence has increased and they continue to push up prices. The current Southwest Market ** mainstream offer 7200 ~ 7400 yuan (ton price, the same below), toluene offer 7500 ~ 7700 yuan, xylene quote 7600 ~ 7800 yuan.
The phthalic anhydride market is quiet and the price is narrow. Recent phthalic anhydride manufacturers continue to offer higher prices, making the holding business mentality is very stable, inventory pressure is not obvious. However, the increase in downstream demand has been limited. Buyers are more cautious in receiving goods, and traders have been softer and the quotation has been consolidated. In the current period, the market price of phthalic anhydride in the Southwest was 9150 to 9350 yuan.
The phenol market has weakened and prices have gradually fallen back. The market is relatively well-stocked, and the downstream demand is generally low. Initiative talks are gradually reduced. Buyers can still request goods, but the volume of shipments is relatively small. At present, the upstream raw materials continue to support the cost of phenol, and the merchants' mentality is basically stable. Under the pressure of slowing shipments, prices have fallen slightly. In the current period, the mainstream price of phenol in the southwest market was 14800 to 15000 yuan.
** The market is operating steadily and price fluctuations have risen. The stock market is less than stock, traders are more active in asking for goods, and the upper raw material prices are running at a high level, which is conducive to stable prices. The overall chemical market is good. There is a certain degree of buying interest in the downstream market, but the trading volume is limited and traders are limited. The goods are still available, and the offer rises steadily. This period of the Southwest Market ** quoted 7200 ~ 7350 yuan.
The methanol plant was underemployed and the spot supply was tight, and prices continued to rise. Sichuan Jiangyou 100,000 tons/year methanol plant and Sichuan Lutianhua two 440,000 tons/year methanol plant are still in suspension, and the restart time is undecided; Chongqing Sinopec's 350,000 tons/year methanol plant operates well within the manufacturer's products. For sale, sales are not large. Driven by the continuous rise of domestic methanol, the local methanol manufacturers continue to increase prices, the mainstream factory price in the 3000 ~ 3100 yuan; northwest methanol supply railway transported to Chengdu-Chongqing region's offer rose sharply, the mainstream offer 3100 ~ 3200 yuan.
Formaldehyde has a good market atmosphere and prices remain strong. The current volatile methanol market continues to rise, continue to increase the cost of formaldehyde, formaldehyde manufacturers through pressure to transfer pressure, coupled with the active start-up plate companies, downstream demand has steadily increased, brokers and terminal buyers have access to goods, traders shipped smoothly The intention of pushing prices is obvious. In the current period, the mainstream price of formaldehyde in the southwestern market was 1450 to 1550 yuan.
The acetic acid market has a stable trend and prices have risen steadily. The main acetic acid plant in the region started to operate stably. Since there was a stop maintenance plan in mid-November, the manufacturers stocked their inventory and there was no shipping pressure. The price of raw materials in the upper reaches continued to rise, which strongly supported the price of acetic acid. At present, the market has a good atmosphere of trade. Traders are shipping normally and prices have steadily increased. In the current period, the price of acetic acid in the southwest market was 3,100-3,200 yuan.
The vinyl acetate market oscillated and prices softened. The local vinyl acetate manufacturers have normal production. The products are mainly supplied to contract users and sales are normal. Due to the relatively large price increase of vinyl acetate in the previous period, it has limited the buyer’s purchase intentions to a certain extent. The trader’s attitude has been cautious, the trading volume has been slowly declining, traders’ shipments have been slack, and prices have gradually declined. In the current period, the market price for vinyl acetate in the southwestern market was 8800 to 8950 yuan.
