The overall market in the spring gradually start affecting fertilizer and tariffs and other factors , the stable fertilizer prices , 45% of the chlorine-based compound mainstream factory price 1800-1900 yuan / ton, 45% of compound fertilizer factory price in 2150 mainstream -2250 yuan / ton. Because of resource distribution presents regional , rail freight price adjustment is the largest phosphate fertilizer affected , the impact of urea, compound fertilizer followed. Fertilizer, blended fertilizer in recent years in the Northeast, sales increased year by year in the Inner Mongolia region , also gradually get rid of the status of ” diammonium alternatives ,” the .

US- olefins aromatics market structure reconstructed
IHS Chemical Company recently on the U.S. olefins, aromatics market analysis to determine , by means downtime , as well as some cracking feedstock lightweight product overcapacity , U.S. olefins, aromatics market structure will be reconstructed in the next segment ~ time . IHS said the arrival of the cracker maintenance season will make the United States of ethylene and propylene prices remain firm until April , but Williams has announced its Louisiana gaisima cracker restart postponed until June , will make ethylene supply maintain tension ; U.S. cracker feedstock lightweight trend , leading to a lack of supply of aromatics and propylene ; affected by too little inventory , January U.S. benzene spot prices hit a record high , but with the arrival in March of imported goods, the United States benzene price from historical highs ; suffer substantial expansion of the Asian paraxylene (PX) prices will continue to fall until 2015 .

Cyclohexanone greatly increased capacity to find ” the sea “
Cyclohexanone applications can generally be divided according to their use and non- amide amide with two categories. Internationally, the amide with cyclohexanone is mainly used in the production of caprolactam and adipic acid , as the largest user , accounting for about 80% of its total consumption of cyclohexanone . Our industry is cyclohexanone With the rise of caprolactam industry and developed . With the adjustment of product structure of caprolactam and cyclohexanone expanding the use of non- amide uses gravity to rise, especially after as paints, inks, coatings and adhesives grade solvent , cyclohexanone truly become an industry . Currently in China ‘s consumption structure of cyclohexanone , caprolactam , 60% , 15% of the coatings industry , rubber chemicals accounted for 7 %, other 18%. Continue reading
Why change the darling outcast octanol
Prior to 2013 , octanol has been the market ‘s “Beloved” , are profiteering products. But last year, the octanol historic turning point occurred in the market , manufacturers limited production price , the loss of profit margins , prices plummeted and other words become describes the most commonly used words in octanol market . Octanol Why this former market darling Outcast ?
Productivity spurt release is the culprit. Statistics show that last year, an increase of octanol capacity synchronous 70%. As Luxi Group , Jiangsu Hui hygiene newly rebuilt Oxo device mass production , the traditional manufacturers and stable , steady sales, lucrative historical pattern suddenly be rewritten. Additionally, the influx of foreign products , domestic and foreign markets battle is heating up . Especially in the second half , the situation of price competition within the industry appears more than once , and some device into a loss , there has not the busy season , off-season lighter horrors, manufacturers were forced to take such measures as limited production price . 2013 became the most sad reminder of the octanol year history . However, this situation has not improved this year, signs of how the country will continue to set the device is about to be launched Oxo alcohol , octanol yield a further new level , initially expected the figure at 200 million tons , an increase of more than 30 %. Led to an unprecedented increase in market supply pressure , in 2013 the annual industry operating at about 70% , this year is expected to continue to deteriorate , the profits of manufacturers will continue to decline sharply , the industry entered the era of meager profit across the board .

Spring nitrogen urea prices fell consolidation or crisis
Fertilizer market remains steady upward trend, some companies recently raised the factory price. Main reason: rail freight increases, the cost is pulled high, high sulfur prices of raw materials to support AP markets. Ming recently presented raw urea overall steady kicked upstairs, Shandong Province actual transaction has to 1550-1600 yuan / ton, neighboring Henan, Jiangsu, Anhui and other places prices are also down 20 yuan / ton amplitude. Spring nitrogen fertilizer demand in the main recipe, a large proportion of the cost of nitrogen fertilizer, urea dismal performance but did not form a good support.
With the weather warming downstream aspects of the market slow start, gradually expand grassroots fertilization,3-April comes with a fat little peak businesses or give up a single glimmer of good news for fertilizer markets. Overall market recovery will take time. Up to now the market factory price remained at 45CL (3 * 15) 1770-1950 yuan / ton, 45S (3 * 15) 2100-2250 yuan / ton. Expect no substantial improvement in fertilizer market this week, waiting for grass fertilizer manufacturers fully open.(http://www.lubonchem.com supply)
Acrylic downward price weakness
Acrylic recent domestic market continued to decline, trading intent is very low. The rapid decline in prices of raw materials, the cost of support for acrylic dropped, buyers leave the terminal waiting; while acrylic factories continued to drop and quotes, more directly suppress the market confidence.

Is expected to rise slightly with monoammonium
With the arrival of spring fertilizer season, monoammonium phosphate market slow start . At present, enterprises continue to perform pre- orders, raw material prices and the cost of rail freight increases lead to increased pressure , manufacturers quite up , but the downstream fertilizer market in general, demand-pull fatigue, the new single turnover remained in general, 55% of the current mainstream monoammonium phosphate powder factory price 1900-2000 yuan ( t price , the same below ) . As the weather began to pick up , cotton and other crops , fertilizer will commence a large area , fertilizer demand will increase, thus boosting sales slightly pulled monoammonium phosphate . MAP prices see stability in the short-term , with the latter expected to slow slightly up .
Raw material price increases transportation of phosphate rock , sulfur , ammonia prices and transportation costs increase as a major factor supporting higher costs monoammonium phosphate , and in raw material prices steady conditions , monoammonium phosphate prices limited downside.
Sulfur overall stability maintenance . Yangtze sulfur prices fall again after a slight rebound in bulk particles mainstream price of 1,500 yuan . The current international price of high sulfur firm, domestic traders gradually began to accept the US- 220 Yuan CIF , the domestic spot market at high prices by international support, but large-scale procurement downstream peak subsided, small and medium factories and more demand procurement , port trade is not. Although February combined cargo to Hong Kong , but most sources are plants, there is no significant increase in the actual volume of trade .
