1. Carbon black market analysis
Today, China's carbon black market remains stable. As of now, the mainstream price of N330 in the carbon black market is 8,200 - 8,800 yuan/ton.
Cost aspect:Today, the coal tar market at the cost end of carbon black is temporarily stable and wait-and-see. There is a lack of new orders on the market, and coal tar prices remain stable. As the autumn enters, most companies have increased their maintenance plans, the operating rate of coal tar deep processing units has dropped, and supply has been relatively tight; the follow-up speed of downstream products has been slow, so the rise in coal tar prices has slowed down, which has limited support for carbon black cost.
Supply:Most enterprises in China have started operations smoothly. Maintenance plans for enterprises in Shanxi and Shandong have increased, and the start-up of carbon black sample enterprises has declined slightly.
Demand side:The downstream demand side continues to be mainly in need of goods, with limited on-site transactions, and overall shipments show a stable trend. Carbon black is currently affected by the narrowing increase in raw material prices, and on-site price fluctuations are limited.
