As of now, the ex-factory price of 98% ore acid in Sichuan is 350-480 yuan/ton, the factory price of smelting acid is 200-300 yuan/ton, and the ex-factory price of 98% smelting acid in Chifeng is 20-100 yuan/ton; Affected by the Universiade in Chengdu, surrounding chemical companies have limited production of equipment, and market supply has shrunk. Coupled with the recent rise in raw material sulfur prices, the prices of individual sulfuric acid and ore acid have increased slightly; At present, demand for the downstream phosphate fertilizer industry in some areas of the market has rebounded, but overall demand is still relatively weak. Sulfuric acid prices are expected to operate firmly in the short term.
