China's anthracene oil market prices fell within a narrow range this week. So far, the market price in Shandong is 4,200 - 4,200 yuan/ton, and the market price in Shanxi is 4,100 - 4,150 yuan/ton. The decline in the price of high-temperature coal tar has widened, which has a strong negative impact on the cost of anthracene oil; the operating pressure of the anthracene oil market is high, and some anthracene oil companies have independently reduced their production; the price of downstream carbon black market has fallen widely, bringing a strong negative impact on the raw material market. The starting load of the anthracene oil hydrogenation market is low, and the receipt of anthracene oil is limited; Downstream deep-processing enterprises have suffered long-term losses, and manufacturers have great shipping pressure. Most of them are mainly digesting inventories. Some factories have reduced their burdens and reduced their pressure, and only maintained demand for raw materials. It is expected that the anthracene oil market will continue to be weak in the short term.
