Carbon Black Market Analysis on July 6

1. Carbon black market analysis

Today, the price of carbon black in China is still strong. As of now, the mainstream price of N330 in the carbon black market is 7,600 - 8,400 yuan/ton.

Cost: Today, the price of high-temperature coal tar in China has temporarily stabilized. As of now, the market price of high-temperature coal tar in Shandong is 4105 yuan/ton. The high-temperature coal tar market is just in need of purchase, and the terminal demand is not ideal. The pressure on the market continues. Driven by the decline in Shandong's main producing areas, coal tar in other regions in East China has a downward trend, weakening support for the cost of carbon black.

Supply: Affected by the market, some carbon black companies have fallen into losses, and start-up expectations have dropped.

On the demand side: Profits in China's transportation industry have further shrunk, fleet tire replacement willingness has weakened, pressure on all-steel tires has increased, and there is no good news on the demand side of the carbon black market.
