1.  Anthracene Oil Market Analysis

 

China's anthracene oil market fell this week. As of now, the market price in Shandong is 4,600 - 4,700 yuan/ton. The price of high-temperature coal tar has fluctuated and increased, and the pressure on the cost of anthracene oil has increased; the downstream carbon black market price has remained stable. Due to the low price of ethylene tar, the demand for anthracene oil by carbon black companies has dropped significantly, and they have purchased goods on a bargain price; The operating rate of the anthracene oil hydrogenation market is relatively stable, and most of the goods received in the market are just demand; terminal demand is still sluggish, dragging down the anthracene oil market and pushing down the anthracene oil market price. The anthracene oil market is operating in a weak position, and the pressure for negotiations on new orders is high.
