On the one hand, the refrigerant inventory is low and the market supply is tight; On the other hand, the high temperature power rationing gradually ended; On both sides, the refrigerant started to rise slightly, which has certain support for chloroform.

According to the methane chloride data analysts of the Business Society, the domestic methane chloride starts to decline slightly, the raw material price stage is supported at a high level, and the downstream refrigerant starts to rise slightly, forming a strong support for chloroform; It is expected that trichloromethane will consolidate at a high level in the short term. In the future, we still need to pay attention to whether the cost and demand side support are continued.
