As of September 21, the average price of spandex 40d specification was 33100 yuan / ton, up 4.09% compared with the beginning of the month. Recently, due to the pressure of cost, most manufacturers of spandex have been increasing their quotations. Some manufacturers say that they are in short supply with specifications. The industry starts at 80.20%, maintaining a high level. On September 16, Xinxiang Bailu investment group held the foundation laying ceremony for the project with an annual output of 100000 tons of spandex. The enterprise has successively put into operation a number of world’s first spandex production lines, with a total production capacity of 120000 tons and a total investment of more than 3 billion yuan.

The market focus of raw material pure MD continues to move upward, manufacturers limit supply to support the market, suppliers continue to support the market, the downstream demand support is fair near the holidays, and the pure MDI market is expected to continue to run upward. In September 2020, the listing price of pure MDI of Wanhua chemical was 18000 yuan / ton, which was 1000 yuan / ton higher than that in August 2020. The market quotation is 17700-18000 yuan / ton, which is 2200-2500 yuan / ton higher than that at the beginning of the month.

The price of PTMEG is running in the market, and the factory has strong intention to offer price. It is expected that the price of PTMEG will be raised as a whole in October. At present, the mainstream quotation of 1800 molecular weight goods source is 13800-14500 yuan / ton, and the actual order negotiation is 13700-14300 yuan / ton. In terms of devices, more than 70% of the plants have been started in the industry. Among them, the 40000 tons of units in Yizheng Dalian were shut down, and the load of 46000 tons of units in Shaanxi chemical industry was restored.

In the downstream market, the start-up level of circular knitting machine and wrapping yarn Market in Xiaoshao region of Zhejiang Province is maintained at 60-70%; that in Wujiang area of Jiangsu Province is maintained at about 70%; that of lace in Fujian Province is maintained at 40% and that of warp knitting is between 60% and 70%; small orders of enterprises in Guangdong Province follow up, and the market of yarn wrapping, warp knitting and circular knitting machines is maintained at 60-80%. In recent years, the start-up of terminal weaving shows a slight growth trend. The comprehensive starting rate of Jiangsu and Zhejiang looms is above 74%, but compared with previous years, it is still in a low load, so it is still necessary to continue to take delivery of goods, and the actual transaction needs to be discussed in detail with the manufacturer.

Business agency analysts believe that the recent price rise of spandex, but the rise is relatively cautious, manufacturers to maintain stable supply, individual supply slightly tense. From the raw material market trend, pure MDI and PTMEG high shock, cost side is good, support is not reduced. The purchasing atmosphere of downstream terminal customers is general, and the overall market atmosphere is strong. Overall, it is expected that the market price of spandex will remain volatile in the short term, with a small range and strong trend.

1、 Trend analysis

Copper prices fell first and then rose this week. As of the end of the week, the spot copper price was 52335 yuan / ton, down 0.32% from the beginning of the week, up 9.97% year-on-year and 6.53% higher than the beginning of the year. Recently, copper prices remain mainly narrow range fluctuations.

Fitch expects copper production in the Republic of Congo to decline by 3.5% in 2020, far below the 18% decline previously expected. The supply of major copper producing countries such as Chile is recovering, and domestic smelting capacity is gradually increasing. China’s refined copper production rose to 894000 tons in August, up 9.7% year-on-year, as smelter maintenance decreased. However, the supply of scrap copper remains tight, and the import of scrap copper is expected to drop by 50% compared with last year.

Thanks to the recovery of market demand, the recovery situation of automobile industry in August continued to be better, but the operating rate of all kinds of copper materials declined. At present, domestic copper inventory has accumulated, but consumption in peak season has not been proved. The global dominant copper inventory is at a low level. With the closing of import window, domestic inventory is expected to fall, and there is support for the bottom of copper price.

In view of the above situation, after the current market enters the peak season, the speed of de stocking is not good, but consumption has not been falsified, and it still needs time to observe the performance of demand; the supply of mine end is recovering, and the domestic refined copper production is also increasing, but the supply of scrap copper will remain tense, and the copper price is expected to remain high and volatile.

According to the monitoring of business agency, the domestic market price of phthalic anhydride dropped slightly this week. As of the 18th day, the quoted price of phthalic anhydride was 5287.5 yuan / ton, which was 0.24% lower than 5300 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week, and 25.0% lower than the price at the beginning of the week. Supply and demand in the market were normal, and the market price of phthalic anhydride fell slightly.

This week, the domestic phthalic anhydride market price mainly fluctuated, the floor price fell slightly, the phthalic anhydride market was in general, the downstream demand was normal in the near future, the price of o-benzene remained stable, the plasticizer market was mainly volatile, and the phthalic anhydride price trend declined slightly. Domestic phthalic anhydride manufacturers have little change in operation. The operating rate of phthalic anhydride is about 60%. The domestic phthalic anhydride spot supply is normal. The downstream plasticizer industry mainly purchases on demand. The on-site merchants have a strong wait-and-see mood, and the market is mainly stable. The price trend of phthalic anhydride market in East China remained stable, with limited high-end transactions on the floor. In East China, the main source negotiation between neighboring France and France was 5200-5400 yuan / ton, while that of naphthalene process was 5000-5100 yuan / ton. The mainstream quotation of phthalic anhydride market in North China was 5300-5400 yuan / ton. The market outlook of phthalic anhydride was still in the market, and the market price of phthalic anhydride decreased slightly.

This week, the domestic o-benzene price remained at a low level, and the floor price remained at 4400 yuan / T. the low domestic o-benzene price was a negative influence on the phthalic anhydride market. In addition, the import o-benzene market in the port area fluctuated, and the external price of o-benzene was mainly stable. The actual transaction price was subject to negotiation. The actual list was discussed in detail. In addition, the on-site o-benzene merchants had a strong wait-and-see mood, the low price of o-benzene fluctuated, and the raw material of o-benzene was o-benzene The low price is unfavorable to the domestic market price of phthalic anhydride, and the market price of phthalic anhydride drops slightly.

DOP market price trend of phthalic anhydride downstream rose slightly this week. According to the monitoring of business agency, the domestic DOP price was 7250 yuan / ton as of the 18th day, which was 1.87% higher than the price of 7116.67 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week. The price of isooctyl alcohol in the field rose, the cost of DOP raw materials rose, the equipment of DOP enterprises recovered, the price of PVC fluctuated and adjusted, downstream customers’ purchasing enthusiasm was normal, and the plasticizer transaction was completed The price of DOP market was 7250-7450 yuan / ton, the transaction volume of plasticizer in the market increased, and the downstream market improved, supported by favorable conditions, and the domestic phthalic anhydride market price fluctuated mainly.

On the whole, the recent trend of crude oil price is rising, and the domestic price of o-benzene is stable, but the domestic market of plasticizer industry has improved, and the market price of phthalic anhydride is mainly fluctuated, and the decline is limited.

In the future, the domestic o-benzene price trend is mainly volatile, but the plasticizer trading market is better, the plasticizer price is slightly higher, and the future DOP price trend has an upward trend. It is expected that the phthalic anhydride market price will remain volatile next week.

Recently, Zhengzhou coal has a strong trend, rising continuously and breaking through 580 points; the price of port steam coal has also increased slightly. The fundamental reason is that the supply side continues to shrink and transportation is hindered, and the upstream and downstream transmission is not smooth, which aggravates the mismatch between supply and demand.

Strict investigation on main production area of coal mine

The recent illegal mining incidents in Qinghai open-pit mines have been further fermented, making the close down of open-pit mines expected to further increase; open-pit mines in Northern Shaanxi are also facing severe investigation, and some coal mines have been shut down. Since this year, coal mines in the main production areas have been under strict supervision? The policy of “looking back 20 years” is very strong, which has greatly restrained the overproduction of coal; the coal management ticket policy in Shaanxi is very strict, and the open-pit mining is significantly affected. Overall, since this year, domestic efforts to crack down on black coal and overproduction coal have increased. According to the data released by relevant institutions, the cumulative output of raw coal from January to July this year was 2.12 billion tons, a year-on-year decrease of 0.1%; in July, the output of raw coal fell further on a month on month basis to 320 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 3.7% and a month on month decrease of 4.9%.

Import volume fell sharply

According to the data of the General Administration of customs, the coal import volume in August dropped sharply to 20.663 million tons, a decrease of 20.8% on a month on month basis, and a sharp drop of 37.3% year-on-year; the cumulative coal import volume from January to August was 221 million tons, with a slight increase of 0.2% year-on-year. The effect of import control policy is very obvious. Since May, imports have been regulated, and the import volume has dropped from a high level. This year, China’s coal import policy is still subject to horizontal control. If the level control is carried out according to the import scale of the whole year in 2017, the remaining quota from September to December is only 50.183 million tons, and that in a single month is only 12.546 million tons; if the level control is based on the import scale of the whole year in 2019, the remaining quota from September to December will be 78.917 million tons, and the single month will be 1.73 million tons. No matter what level control standard is adopted, the import volume in the remaining four months of this year will continue to fall sharply.

Transport capacity is difficult to recover in the short term

On August 17 and August 24, affected by the rainstorm, the Daqin Railway had two derailment accidents in a week. Since then, the speed and traffic volume of Daqin Railway have been reduced. Up to now, the capacity of Datong Qinhuangdao railway has not returned to normal. The daily traffic volume is about 1.1 million tons, which is about 15% lower than the normal traffic volume. As of the week ending September 6, the import volume of the four ports in the North was 9.948 million tons, a slight increase of 4.9% on a month on month basis, and a year-on-year decrease of 3.7%; the export volume of the four ports in the North was 10.783 million tons, up 0.5% month on month and 3% lower than the same period last year. Due to the limited transportation capacity, the amount of port transfer in is less than that of transfer out, which aggravates the decline of port inventory. In addition, the autumn inspection of Datong Qinhuangdao line will start soon, lasting about 20 days, which will continue to restrain the further recovery of transport capacity. It can be expected that the transport capacity will remain at a low level in September.

Demand or off-season is not weak

The power consumption of the secondary industry may reverse the weakness. From January to July, the total electricity consumption of the whole society reached 404 million kwh, a year-on-year decrease of 0.7%. Among them, the electricity consumption of the secondary industry decreased by 2.2% year-on-year, and that of urban and rural residents increased by 8%. In July, the power consumption of the whole society was 682.4 billion kwh, an increase of 2.3% year on year. Among them, the electricity consumption of urban and rural residents made a major contribution, with a year-on-year increase of 13.8%, and the electricity consumption of the secondary industry decreased by 0.7%.

From the end of March to the end of this year, the issuance scale of special bonds is RMB 428.8 billion, which is higher than that in the first half of March to the end of this year, which is obviously higher than that in the first half of this year. Second, large-scale construction of water conservancy and transportation will be supported by large-scale water conservancy projects. In addition to the development of infrastructure, the real estate market in September will also maintain strong resilience, and the demand for rush work in the second half of the year will remain strong. It can be predicted that the year-on-year growth rate of electricity consumption in the secondary industry will be relatively strong in the future.

The marginal substitution of hydropower becomes weaker. In the third quarter, the whole country ushered in continuous rainfall. The South experienced the super long plum rainy season, and the rainfall reached a historical high level. Recently, the rainfall moved northward, and the continuous rainfall in the northern region cooled down. On the whole, the high temperature weather in July and August was not as high as in previous years, and the rainfall increased significantly, so the substitution of hydropower for thermal power was very obvious. In July, thermal power generation decreased by 0.7% year-on-year, and hydropower generation increased by 6.1% year-on-year. It is expected that hydropower will still be stronger than thermal power in August. In September, the precipitation dropped seasonally and the inflow and outflow of the Three Gorges Reservoir decreased significantly. Hydropower is still stronger than in previous years, but the substitution of thermal power will become weaker.

The power plant replenishment will start soon. In the middle and late September, the power plant ushered in seasonal replenishment cycle, thus boosting the price of steam coal. Since August, the storage of power coal in key power plants has declined rapidly. As of the week of September 2, the inventory of key power plants in China was 76.43 million tons, down 3.75 million tons on a month on month basis, and 5.54 million tons on a year-on-year basis, with a decrease rate of 6.8%.

Low port inventory

Due to the impact of transport capacity, port inventory has declined significantly in the near future. As of the week ending September 7, the coal inventory of the four northern ports (Qinhuangdao, Caofeidian, Huanghua port and Jingtang Port) was 11.6 million tons, with a month on month decrease of 720000 tons, a decrease of 5.8%, and a year-on-year decrease of 2.293 million tons or 16.5%. Recently, the port inventory has dropped to the low level in the same period of previous years, and the low inventory will increase the upward elasticity of price.

In short, steam coal supply will further tighten. In addition, the power plant replenishment will start soon, so the price of steam coal will remain strong in September, with the fluctuation range of 570-600 yuan / ton.

According to the data monitored by the business agency, as of September 17, the price quoted by pet water bottle manufacturers was 5283.33 yuan / ton, and the current mainstream manufacturer’s price was around 5250-5350 yuan / ton. The market of polyester bottle chip in South China was down steadily, and the mainstream negotiation price in the market was 5100 yuan / ton.

Pet manufacturers’ quotation is stable, market negotiation focus is stable, downstream demand is poor, the number of new orders is limited, the negotiation atmosphere is low, and just need procurement is the main. At present, the polyester bottle chip market in East China is stable, and the price of mainstream manufacturers is around 5250-5350 yuan / ton. At present, the price of Xiamen Tenglong is 5300 yuan / ton, Guangdong Taibao is 5300 yuan / ton, Zhuhai Huarun is 5250 yuan / ton, Zhejiang wankai is 5250 yuan / ton/ Yizheng Chemical fiber is 5300 yuan / ton, most of them are cautious and wait-and-see attitude, the cost support is general, the manufacturer’s quotation is stable, the willingness to protect the price is strong, the focus of negotiation is stable, and the procurement is mainly on demand.

The upstream PTA market is stable and weak, and the market trading atmosphere is general. The market is dominated by contract orders, and the number of new orders is limited. The mainstream price range is about 3500 yuan / ton.

On September 16, PTA commodity index was 34.35, up 0.1 point compared with yesterday, 66.95% lower than 103.92 (2011-09-15), and 14.16% higher than 30.09, the lowest point on April 22, 2020. (Note: period refers to 2011-09-01 to now)

Pet analysts of business agency believe that: in the short term, the pet market has a trend of steady decline. (the above prices are provided by major pet manufacturers all over the country and analyzed by pet business analysts for reference only. Please contact relevant manufacturers for more price details.)

According to the monitoring data of the business agency, the external price of ethylene has risen recently. On the 13th, the average price of ethylene was $728.50/t, and the price on the 17th was $727.00/t, up 1.17%. The current price is up 4.91% month on month, and the current price is down 19.63% year-on-year.

Recently, ethylene is on the rise as a whole. Asian ethylene market prices rose, as of the 17th, CFR Northeast Asia closed at $805-815 / T, CFR Southeast Asia closed at $755-765 / T. The European ethylene market price fluctuated and consolidated. As of the 17th, the European ethylene market price was FD, northwest Europe closed at 687-698 US dollars / ton, CIF northwest Europe closed at 673-685 US dollars / ton. Ethylene prices in the U.S. rose to $523-535 per ton as of the 17th. Generally speaking, the ethylene market in Europe and the United States is on an upward trend. The demand for ethylene in the whole market is good, and the market continues to rise.

International: on September 16, the price of WTI crude oil futures market in the United States rose sharply, with the settlement price of main contracts at US $40.16/barrel, up US $1.88 or 4.90%. Brent crude oil futures market prices rose sharply, the main contract settlement price to 42.22 US dollars / barrel, up 1.69 US dollars or 4.16%. The sharp rise in oil prices was mainly due to a sharp drop in US crude oil and gasoline stocks, and a combination of hurricanes forced a large amount of oil production in the United States. Crude oil soared, giving ethylene cost support, ethylene external market continued to rise.

Recently, the domestic styrene market has been stable and small, and some of the prices have been raised. The recent hurricane again affected the production in the Gulf area of the United States, boosting the formation of crude oil. Intraday, crude oil rose, futures, electronic trading and other horizontal trading small shocks. In terms of port inventory, the wharf inventory decreased, and the downstream operating rate generally increased, and some downstream were considered to prepare for the National Day holiday, so the demand side was improved. The styrene market continues to maintain a volatile situation in a large range. Today, the overall market price of styrene in East China is slightly higher than that in volume. Styrene in South China was raised to 5350-5450 yuan / ton, and that in North China was raised to 5350 yuan / ton.

Ethylene analysts of the chemical branch of the business agency believe that: at present, due to the impact of Hurricane “Sally” landing in the south of the United States on the same day, some offshore crude oil production capacity in the Gulf of Mexico has been shut down. International oil prices soared, cost support is strong, so business agency data analysts predict that ethylene external price will rise next.

According to the monitoring of the bulk data of the business agency, affected by the decline in supply, the market of dichloromethane in Shandong has been strong and upward. As of September 17, the average price in Shandong was about 2360 yuan / ton, up 3.51% compared with the beginning of the month and 3.06% higher than the same period of last month.

Due to the impact of enterprise burden reduction and low inventory, the spot supply of dichloromethane in Shandong Province decreased slightly. In addition, the price of liquid chlorine of raw materials was high. The price of dichloromethane in Shandong was strong and upward. The price of dichloromethane in East and South China was driven by the influence of Shandong Province. At present, the price of dichloromethane in Shandong is about 2360-2400 yuan / ton, that of Jiangsu Liwen is about 3000 yuan / ton, and that of Jiangxi Liwen is about 2450 yuan / ton.

In the upstream market, affected by the strong trend of futures, the quotation of methanol market in various regions has also increased to varying degrees. Some production enterprises temporarily shut down their devices, and the shipment of enterprises is fair, and the manufacturer’s offer is firm. It is expected that the domestic methanol market will fluctuate at a high level in the short term, at present, it is about 1807 yuan / T; the liquid chlorine market is at a high level, and the enterprise’s inventory is declining, and the maintenance of some devices has not been restored Moreover, the supply and demand in the industry is relatively balanced. At present, the mainstream quotation in the industry is about 700-900 yuan / ton.

Under the influence of high cost pressure, the price of refrigerants has risen, but the support of the demand side is not enough, the demand of downstream car manufacturers is less, and the export is also poor. For the sudden surge of refrigerant, the receiving capacity is insufficient, and the enterprises are not able to ship. At the same time, the supply is abundant, and there are plans for new production capacity to enter the market. The contradiction between supply and demand is likely to deepen. Some enterprises have the phenomenon of cost inversion, and the future market situation is still not optimistic. The pharmaceutical and agricultural solvent industry started flat, and there was insufficient support for dichloromethane.

According to the methane chloride data of the business society, the inventory pressure of dichloromethane production enterprises in Shandong is not large at present. In addition, some traders prepare goods before the festival, and the downstream buyers have a strong mentality, so the enterprises have a good intention of supporting prices and are expected to run stably in a short period of time.

According to the data monitoring of the business agency, as of September 16, the average ex factory price of domestic butanone market was 5733.33 yuan / ton, which was reduced by 433 yuan / ton or 6.97% compared with the price on September 1.

“Gold nine more than half” butanone market is sluggish and hard to change, price is still at the bottom of the deadlock

Unknowingly, it has already passed half of September. It is not obvious that the domestic butanone market in China has not improved significantly at the time of the traditional “golden nine”. Since the beginning of the month, the market has been hovering around 6100 yuan / ton. Under the cold demand of downstream, the market is full of fatigue, the digestion and inventory in the market is slow, and the transmission between upstream and downstream is not smooth On the 10th, the factory’s offer prices were lowered by 100-200 yuan / ton, while the low-end price dropped to 5600 yuan / ton. Subsequently, the weak market trend did not change, and the demand dragged the butanone market into a deadlock. On the 14th, the market offer fell again, and the industry had a strong desire to rise. On the 15th, the offer of some regions increased slightly by 50-100 yuan / T, and the price of butanone was still at the bottom. As of the 16th, the average ex factory price of domestic butanone market was 5733.33 yuan / ton, compared with the price on September 1 Compared with Georgia, the average price decreased by 433 yuan / ton, or 6.97%.

On the upstream side, although the LPG civil market fell in the first week of September, the amplitude was not large. In the second week, the decline trend of LPG civil market remained unchanged, and the focus continued to move downward, and the range was more obvious. There was no increase in downstream demand, mainly consumed inventory, and the overall trading atmosphere of the market was slightly light. In addition, the early shutdown of enterprises has been restored, the market supply has increased, increasing the sales pressure. Down stream wait-and-see sentiment is strong, enter the market operation cautiously. Manufacturers did not improve shipment, inventory pressure gradually increased. Continuously reduce the price and give priority to shipment. The prices of some manufacturers have fallen below 3000 yuan / ton. As of September 16, most of the Southern markets were down, with weak demand in South China and poor trading atmosphere in the market. Refineries fell sharply by about 50-100 yuan / ton. The decline range of the northern market was narrowed, and some enterprises still had small rises. The price in Shandong was about 20 yuan / ton, and the price in Northeast China was relatively strong.

Parking is difficult to meet domestic and external demand downturn, and the market of butanone is more narrow range after finishing operation

At present, many factories choose to park for maintenance due to the continuous reduction of profits and slow delivery. However, the export and domestic sales of butanone are in a double weak trend. Although the factory supply has decreased, the domestic butanone supply spot is still at a high level. At present, the industry is looking forward to a strong rise, and the future market is expected to stop falling. However, whether it can really usher in the upward trend still needs to pay more attention to the demand side In the short term, the butanone market may be dominated by narrow range finishing.
