In July, the sponge titanium market stabilized and weakened. In early August, the price was lowered by 2000 yuan/ton compared with early July. The demand for downstream military and civilian products is still relatively weak, while the supply continues to be high, market shipping pressure is high, and sponge titanium prices are weak. In the short term, demand is difficult to support, and the market price of sponge titanium will continue to operate weak. However, the supply of titanium raw materials is tight and the price is high. The price of sponge titanium began to suffer losses. The market is under pressure, and the decline in market price may be limited.
