Carbon black market analysis on October 19

1. Carbon black market analysis

Today, China's carbon black market is operating stably at a high level. As of now, the mainstream price of N330 in the carbon black market is between 9,600 - 10,400 yuan/ton.

Cost: Today, China's high-temperature coal tar market is mixed. Affected by the price drops in two auctions in Linhuan, Anhui Province, prices in East China showed a significant downward trend; supply and demand support in North China and Northwest China is still strong, driving the market upward. The current relatively high coal tar market price provides reasonable support for the cost of carbon black.

Supply: Carbon black enterprises in Shandong take turns to stop work for maintenance, and the overall operating rate of carbon black enterprises fluctuates within a narrow range.

On the demand side: There is an obvious shortage of best-selling models in China's tire replacement market, and companies have maintained a positive state when starting operations.
