Ammonium chloride: the quantity of exports reach a record high, how about the price?

The first half of this year, the domestic ammonium chloride market continued a few years ago in the weak supply and demand imbalance in the case of contradictions, manufacturers can only reduce the operating rate to control the decline in market prices. Although the operating rate to a certain extent, the control of the proliferation of market sources, but the price of ammonium chloride was once fell near the cost line, and even some factories have a loss of state, ammonium chloride stocks reached more than one million tons.

However, from mid to late June, beginning in July, the ammonium chloride market began to change, although the market price did not show a sharp rise in the trend, but the early lower than the cost price has basically disappeared. Kyrgyzstan enterprises began to recover the device started in about 7 percent, although some manufacturers started unstable, but the supply is relatively adequate. But from the market inventory point of view, ammonium chloride but not higher than the previous year, the phenomenon of more than one million tons of inventory.

From the latest customs data to understand that the larger market inventory where, in June 2017, China’s export fertilizer grade ammonium chloride 194,000 tons, a record monthly export history of the most record. According to the preliminary statistics of the customs, in July 2017 China’s ammonium chloride exports are expected to reach 250,000 tons, another record high. Since 2011, domestic ammonium chloride as a dual fertilizer export stranded in the port, the international demand for ammonium chloride is also significantly affected. In recent years, domestic fertilizer grade ammonium chloride in Southeast Asia to promote and demonstrate a good effect, so from the beginning of 2015, the international community has increased the demand for ammonium chloride.

A large number of exports can not effectively promote the domestic ammonium chloride prices up, edge is why? Mainly in terms of supply and demand, although the export volume increased significantly, but in the case of soda ash market is relatively good, the base unit operating rate is relatively high, basically maintained at 7-8 or so. The autumn market for small nitrogen and other raw materials demand is relatively limited, so manufacturers even if the intention to raise the market price, but the downstream acceptance is still general.

On the whole, the ammonium chloride market will temporarily maintain a stable operation of the situation, although the alkali companies have adjusted intention, but the difficulties can be achieved, so the short term, the ammonium chloride market needs to pay close attention to the downstream plant started The situation, the constraints of domestic demand is still in control of the market price of ammonium chloride changes.
