1. Carbon black market analysis

After a slight decline in carbon black prices in Jiangsu and Zhejiang yesterday, China's carbon black market prices remained stable today. 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 operating in turmoil, and coal tar prices in various regions of China are mixed. At present, the supply of coal tar remains tight, but the flat high transaction volume of downstream deep processing companies has dragged down the trend of coal tar, and coal tar prices have fluctuated, which has weak support for the cost side of carbon black.

Supply:The start-up of most enterprises in China still maintains a stable operation. Enterprise maintenance plans 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. The carbon black market is affected by fluctuations in raw material prices, and the carbon black market is operating steadily and weakly.
