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.

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.

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.

In terms of caprolactam upstream of PA6, some caprolactam enterprises resumed production recently, and the spot supply increased. The domestic caprolactam price fell in mid September. 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.

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.

3、 Future forecast:

Business agency analysts believe: China’s PA6 market weakened in September, the spot prices of various brands mainly fell. The price of caprolactam in the upstream fell, and the cost side support of PA6 weakened. Downstream factories take goods just need to operate, the operation tends to buy on bargain. Business mentality is not strong, the operation of the real single to let profit go. PA6 market is expected to be affected by multiple bearish in the near future, or will continue the weak trend.

As of September 21, Sinopec has offered 4400.00 yuan / ton of o-xylene in East China and 4400 yuan / ton in North China, which is stable compared with the beginning of the week, and the market of o-xylene is temporarily stable.

Upstream market of o-benzene

It can be seen from the mixed xylene price trend chart that the mixed xylene price of o-xylene raw material decreased slightly this week, and the cost of o-xylene decreased, which was negative for the o-xylene market.

From the WTI crude oil price trend chart, we can see that the crude oil market rose sharply this week, up more than 10%. The price of crude oil is rising, the cost pressure of downstream industrial chain is increasing, the market of downstream industry chain is good, and the market of o-benzene is good.

Trend of downstream products

As can be seen from the phthalic anhydride price trend chart, the phthalic anhydride market fell slightly this week, the phthalic anhydride price was basically stable, and the adverse effect on the o-benzene market was limited, and the demand for o-benzene was not enough to support the rebound of the price of phthalic anhydride.

Future forecast:

Bai Jiaxin, an o-xylene data analyst at the business club, believes that the sharp rise in crude oil prices last week has a positive impact on the downstream industrial chain and is conducive to the recovery and rise of o-benzene price. However, the downstream demand for o-benzene is insufficient, and the price rise of mixed xylene in the upstream is relatively small. Although there is a certain upward momentum for o-xylene, it is difficult to support the price adjustment of o-benzene, and the overall future market of o-benzene is stable.

Price trend

Methanol price trend

As can be seen from the methanol price trend chart, the methanol market rose first and then fell this week, the methanol price was adjusted by shock, and the acetic anhydride cost was adjusted by vibration, and the market of acetic anhydride was limited.

Market review and future forecast

According to Bai Jiaxin, an analyst of acetic anhydride data from the business agency, this week’s rise in raw material prices of acetic anhydride is favorable to the market of acetic anhydride, but the overall cost rise of acetic anhydride is limited, which is beneficial to the market of acetic anhydride. On the downstream side, the downstream customers of acetic anhydride purchased actively, the inventory of acetic anhydride enterprises was insufficient, the start-up of acetic anhydride enterprises was limited, and the pressure of acetic anhydride rise was great. Generally speaking, the supply of acetic anhydride enterprises was in short supply, and the market of acetic anhydride in the future market was more powerful.
