Trade name: hydrochloric acid

Latest price (August 16): 263.33 yuan / ton

On August 16, the price of hydrochloric acid mixture in Shandong was temporarily stable, which was the same as the quotation on August 13. The market situation of upstream liquid chlorine is general, which gives weak support to hydrochloric acid. The market situation of downstream white carbon black and ammonium chloride rises slightly, which brings certain benefits to the price of hydrochloric acid. At the same time, the maintenance of enterprises has increased recently, the supply of hydrochloric acid is tight, and the downstream procurement enthusiasm is good. The by-product acid still impacts the market, and the shipment pressure of hydrochloric acid is large.

Recently, the market price of hydrochloric acid in Shandong may rise slightly, and the quotation is about 270 yuan / ton.

The shortage of supply pushes up ethylene oxide. At present, the price in East China is 7700 yuan / ton.

Affected by the bearish trend of regional demand, the price of upstream ethylene plummeted, the cost support weakened, and the profit margin of ethylene oxide increased significantly. Up to now, the external price of ethylene in Northeast Asia is $930 / ton, and the external price of ethylene in Southeast Asia is $965 / ton, down $20 / ton compared with the price of the previous trading day. Calculated at the current price, the profit of ethylene oxide is around 700 yuan. In terms of installation, it was learned from market participants that Sri Lanka will start soon; Affected by the epidemic situation, it is difficult to determine the maintenance time of Sanjiang at present; Jinyan and Dena small lines have been started, and they are basically for their own use but not for sale. Jinyan large line is expected to be delayed until next month. The tight supply situation in East China has not changed substantially. In the downstream, although the monomer rises with the rise of ethylene oxide price, the terminal demand has not been significantly boosted, which brings certain resistance to the rise of monomer price, the high cost of raw materials is difficult to be transmitted to the downstream, and the market mentality is cautious.

Insufficient momentum for continued growth, mainly stable.

According to the monitoring of the business community, the domestic polysilicon market has warmed up this week. As of August 12, the polysilicon price has increased by 2.58%, and the current price range is 100000-125000 yuan / ton.

This week, the units of most polysilicon manufacturers operated stably. The orders of large silicon material manufacturers in August were generally signed, and most began to sign orders in September. At present, the routine maintenance of two sets of units in Xinjiang and Jiangsu has affected part of the output. The output of silicon material is slightly lower than that of the previous month, and the supply is slightly tight, which is the main factor supporting the rise of silicon material price.

In terms of downstream silicon wafers, the price of central silicon wafers increased comprehensively this week, significantly higher than the quotation announced on July 17. The quotation of G1 silicon wafers was 4.62 yuan, up 0.26 yuan; The quotation of M6 silicon wafer was 4.98 yuan, up 0.44 yuan; The quotation of G12 silicon wafer was 7.97 yuan, up 0.44 yuan. This also brings greater price expectations for Longji. The rise of silicon wafer has largely shared the pressure on the pushing up cost of silicon material.

In terms of terminal batteries and components, affected by the rise in raw material prices, it also pushed up the prices of batteries and components. On the one hand, the expectation of price rise stimulated some demand; On the other hand, the export performance picked up, especially in India. Driven by the centralized installation demand, overseas orders increased. Upstream and downstream linkage, and prices rose steadily. The price of polycrystalline battery and single crystal M6 battery increased significantly.

According to the business society, the recent fundamentals of silicon material are good, the supply pressure is not large, and the demand is significantly better than that of the previous month, especially the steady increase of overseas demand and the increase of orders have a significant boost to the price. However, with the resumption of the plant in the maintenance period in the latter ten days, the silicon material supply will increase and the estimated price will stabilize.
