In terms of raw materials, the shutdown and load reduction of acetic acid production enterprises and the low inventory of the industry led to the tight spot supply in the market, and the downstream and traders’ stock preparation was basically completed, which is expected to be stable and stable in a short time. The ethanol market is stable and strong. The raw corn is affected by the bad weather and typhoon, which will have a certain negative impact on the listing of new grain. Recently, the ethanol production enterprises in Northeast China have successively planned to repair and repair, so the supply may be reduced to a certain extent, and it will be strong in a short time.

Upstream fall, demand is weak, PA6 price falls

1、 Price trend:

 

ferric sulfate (Poly ferric sulphate)

According to the data of the business club’s bulk list, the domestic PA6 market fluctuated and fell in mid September, and the spot prices of various brands declined. As of September 22, the mainstream offer price of 2.75-2.85 from traders was about 10650.00 yuan / ton, a decrease of 3.18% compared with the average price at the beginning of the month.

 

2、 Analysis of influencing factors:

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.

Upstream market of industrial chain

 

From the phthalic anhydride trend chart can be seen, DOP raw material phthalic anhydride prices fell first and then rose, phthalic anhydride market volatility adjustment, the overall phthalic anhydride market remained stable.

 

As can be seen from the octanol price trend chart, the octanol market rose this week, up 3.45%, DOP cost rose, DOP has a certain upward support.

O-benzene price remains stable this week (9.14-9.20)

Price trend:

 

EDTA 2Na

According to the business agency data monitoring, this week, the o-benzene contract quotation is stable. 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.

Acetic anhydride price rebounded and rose this week (9.13-9.21)

Price trend

 

ferric sulfate (Poly ferric sulphate)

According to the business agency data monitoring, acetic anhydride market bottomed out this week, and the price of acetic anhydride rose.

From the acetic acid price trend chart can be seen, this week acetic acid price shock rise, acetic anhydride cost rise, acetic anhydride market is good.

 

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.
