Carbon black market analysis on December 12

1. Carbon black market analysis

Today, the price of carbon black in China is stable. As of now, the mainstream price of N330 in the carbon black market is 8,000 - 9,000 yuan/ton.

Cost: Today, China's high-temperature coal tar market prices are operating smoothly. Due to poor terminal demand, the prices of coal tar asphalt and carbon black, the main downstream products are still falling. There are no eye-catching products in the downstream industry. Therefore, when coal tar is purchased on demand, the coal tar market will still be weak in the short term, which will affect the cost of carbon black. Poor support.

Supply: Today, the start-up of the carbon black industry has not changed much, and the overall start-up load of carbon black enterprises is relatively stable.

Demand: Recently, terminal demand in the tire industry has been weak, and corporate inventories have continued to increase slowly. Some tire companies have carried out equipment maintenance to reduce production burden.
