According to the data of the business club’s bulk list, the domestic PA66 market is stronger in mid September, and all models of products have a certain increase. As of September 22, the average offer price of PA66 medium viscosity injection molding class sample enterprises was about 20500.00 yuan / ton, an increase of 6.77% compared with the average price level at the beginning of the month.

 

The domestic prices of adipic acid in the upstream of PA66 have been stable in recent years, and the quotations of dealers in some regions have risen slightly. The manufacturer’s quotation is mainly stable for the time being, and the normal operating rate of the device is about 80%. At present, the downstream demand is relatively weak, the market is in a state of oversupply, and there is inventory pressure of adipic acid. The cost side of pure benzene showed a trend of high level and slow decline in recent years, and its support to the downstream adipic acid was general. On the whole, the market is still in a weak stable pattern. At the same time, due to inventory pressure and weak demand, the current price is unable to rise or fall temporarily. It is not ruled out that prices will continue to fall.

 

The upstream adipic acid generally supports the cost of PA66.

At present, the operating rate of PA66 in China remains low, with little change. The supply level in the market is still tight. In addition, it is the traditional peak season of PA66. Although the replenishment operation of downstream factories maintains the just needed goods, the domestic consumption of PA66 has increased, and the overall terminal demand has recovered. Business shipment situation is fair, PA66 is expected to continue the strong trend.

The spot price of adipic acid in the upstream is stable and small, which supports the cost of PA66. Downstream factory inquiry and procurement to maintain just need operation, order follow-up has become warmer. At present, the market supply is still tight, and it is expected that the market of PA66 will continue to be stronger in the short term.

2、 Market analysis

 

In September, the refrigerant market was uncertain, the demand was weak, the market transaction was weak, and the various refrigerant market continued to be low, the market lacked obvious positive signals, and the attitude of the industry was negative. This month R134a rose sharply, prices hit the bottom rebound, and the favorable day drop prompted the R134a center of gravity to move up slightly. R22 enterprises are weak in price, and they have been down significantly. At present, the refrigerant export is not smooth, the downstream air conditioning output is low, and the demand is scarce. With the weather turning cold, the demand is even more frosty. The manufacturers are under pressure on the delivery. The traders are cautious to watch and see that the weak situation of refrigerant is difficult to change.

 

R134a, in September, trichloroethylene, raw material, rose suddenly. R134 was supported by cost, and the price hit the bottom and rebounded. The total monthly increase was 3.32. Taking Dongyue, Shandong Province as an example, the price at the beginning of the month was 15000 yuan / ton, and the price at the end of the month was increased to 16000 yuan / T, and the monthly price rose by 1000 yuan. Other enterprises increased to different degrees. Although R134a has cost driven, it has poor demand, dealers are cautious to wait and see, there is not much replenishment, and there are plans for new capacity entering the market. The market competition is fierce. Some enterprises have the phenomenon of cost reverse shipment to maintain old customers, and the market is not optimistic. According to the price monitoring of business agency, as of September 23, the main manufacturers price of R134a market of refrigerant was about 15000-16000 yuan / ton, and the center of business was slightly moved up.

 

R22, the price of refrigerant R22 in September dropped. Raw materials fluorite, hydrofluoric acid and chloroform prices have declined to varying degrees, and the cost side support is insufficient. Although R22 has quota support, it is hindered by demand, the firm price of the manufacturer is weak, the quotation begins to loosen, and the market returns to the buyer’s leading position. Affected by new energy efficiency, the demand of R22 is reduced, traders are more cautious in hoarding, few replenishments, insufficient market gas, and insufficient confidence of the industry. As of September 23, the price of the mainstream manufacturers in the refrigerant R22 market was about 13500-16500 yuan / ton, and the price was steadily and quietly decreased.

 

ferric sulfate (Poly ferric sulphate)

Upstream hydrofluoric acid, September 23, the mainstream price of domestic anhydrous hydrofluoric acid manufacturers was 7700-8300 yuan / ton. The factory price of the in-house merchants remained stable. The domestic hydrofluoric acid manufacturers started at a normal rate, the supply of goods in the site was normal, and affected by the stable fluorite price, but the demand of downstream refrigerant industry was poor, and the on-site procurement was mainly based on demand, and the site price in the later period was expected to be kept low.

 

The price of methane chloride Market in Shandong Province is up, the mainstream quotation of dichloromethane market is 2490-2540 yuan / T, and the mainstream price of trichloromethane market is about 1900 yuan / T, and it is expected to adjust in a short period of time. At present, the upstream liquid chlorine market is high, which supports the price of methane chloride better; the overall demand for downstream market is not good and the support is insufficient.

 

3、 Post market forecast

 

Refrigerant analysts of business agency believe that in September, the refrigerant market was weak, R134a price rose, the market transaction atmosphere was poor, the price rise lacked actual driving force, and it is expected that the weak and stable in the short term; the demand for R22 is weak, the manufacturer is generally shipped, the traders’ stock enthusiasm is not high, the price is clearly stable and the price is down, and it is expected that the weak maintenance will be stable in the short term.

As of September 22, the average ex factory price of caprolactam was about 9516.67 yuan / ton. Upstream pure benzene continued to hold a rigid consolidation in the early middle of the middle of the year, and then with the rise of crude oil, the price center of gravity rose. Moreover, the market supply of some hydrogenated benzene units was improved due to the maintenance of some hydrogenated benzene units. In addition, the downstream began to prepare goods before the festival, and the enterprise inventory decreased. It is expected that caprolactam market will decline steadily in the short term, and it is suggested to pay attention to terminal demand.

 

Azodicarbonamide (AC foaming Agent)

In mid September, the market of PA6 was down, and the price of upstream lactam fell. The recent trend of far upstream crude oil declined, and the support of cost side weakened. In addition, the global public health events have a rebound trend, the overall performance of the external market is negative, and the market lacks good news. The demand level of PA6 chips is general, and the consumption of downstream factories is not high. Although the overall operating rate of nylon filament has increased in recent years, the overall demand is weak, and most of the goods are prepared to cover positions at low prices, and the transaction of high price chips is not good. The market mentality is negative, the business confidence is insufficient, in the middle of September, the profits will be sold.
