In the short term, the prices of industrial naphthalene and anthracene oil have risen sharply. The high-temperature coal tar market price has a strong atmosphere of rising prices, and the wait-and-see atmosphere is strong. However, coal tar prices have been low for a long time, and the current support for carbon black costs is still poor. Demand from downstream enterprises continues to be sluggish, carbon black market prices have fallen again, and the market negative atmosphere is strong. The carbon black market is expected to operate weakly in the short term.
