Supply:Most enterprises in China started operations smoothly, and the overall operating rate in the field was relatively low; maintenance plans for enterprises in Shanxi and Shandong increased, while other enterprises started operations at normal levels, and carbon black sample enterprises started operations lower.

Demand side:Recently, most of the downstream demand side's purchases have continued to pick as they are used, and the overall shipments have shown a stable trend. We should be cautious and wait and see, and focus on buying just when we need them. The current positive factors in the carbon black market have been suspended, and the future trend in the market is expected to stabilize slightly.
