Today, China's sulfuric acid market has temporarily stabilized. As of now, the factory price of 98% of smelting acid in Yunnan is 460-550 yuan/ton, and the price of 98% of sulfuric acid in Shandong is 260-390 yuan/ton. Recently, the sulfuric acid market has been operating relatively stable. Companies have delivered early orders, but there is no pressure on inventory; acid prices in some areas have been continuously adjusted, downstream companies have a strong wait-and-see attitude, market procurement is more cautious, and the sulfuric acid market is weak and stable.
2. Sulfuric acid price index
According to Tuduo data, the sulfuric acid market price index on April 19 was 349.42, which was the same as yesterday.
3. Future outlook forecast
This month, the main acid factories in some regions took turns for maintenance. The overall market supply shrank, the demand for downstream phosphate fertilizers weakened, and the supply and demand of the sulfuric acid market were both weak. The market supply and demand were in a game. Sulfuric acid prices were expected to fluctuate, and the transaction price was negotiated on a single basis. However, as the maintenance companies resumed production in the later period, the supply of sulfuric acid is expected to increase, and the acid price may have downward expectations.
