Today, China's sulfuric acid market is temporarily stable. As of now, 98% of ore acid in Guangdong has been shipped at 120-220 yuan/ton, and 98% of smelting acid in Yunnan has arrived at 230-280 yuan/ton. Demand from downstream terminals continues to be sluggish, and there is no sign of improvement in the short term. Most acid factories in Guangdong are ore acid, and costs are under pressure. Under inventory pressure, the price of new orders dropped to 30 yuan/ton today. Due to the continued weakness of the sulfuric acid market, the market purchasing atmosphere is light and the market pessimism is strong. Recently, acid plants in Yunnan and other regions have begun equipment maintenance. However, under the pressure of manufacturers 'shipments, the inventories of some companies have increased, and the sulfuric acid market is under great pressure. The market continues to operate weakly.
2. Analysis of sulfuric acid price index
According to Tuduo data, the sulfuric acid market price index on May 15 was 157.54, which was the same as the previous working day.
3. Future outlook forecast
Some acid plants in Yunnan are planning equipment maintenance, and expectations are also lowered to start operating mineral acid and sulfonic acid under cost pressure. Market supply is shrinking, but downstream market demand continues to be weak and demand for sulfuric acid is insufficient. Recently, sulfuric acid prices have continued to fall, and prices in some regions have fallen. Low, downstream procurement enthusiasm is low, acid companies 'inventories are high, and market prices are expected to continue to maintain a downward trend.
