According to statistics, the price trend of domestic fluorite is temporarily stable. As of the 10th day, the average price of fluorite in China was 2800 yuan / ton, which was equal to 2800 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week, with a year-on-year decrease of 10.04%.

The price of fluorite fluctuates at a high level. Recently, some manufacturers have reported that their orders for fluorite have increased recently. Stimulated by the increase in inquiries, the prices of domestic fluorite manufacturers remain high, and the price of fluorite remains at a high level of 2800 yuan / T, and the price in the market is still bullish. The operation of domestic fluorite manufacturers is stable, the operation of on-site mines and flotation devices is normal, the situation of fluorite in the yard is improved, and the market price of fluorite is slightly higher. In recent years, the downstream hydrofluoric acid market price is still at a low level, and the terminal downstream is mainly purchased on demand. As of the 10th day, the price of 97 fluorite wet powder in Inner Mongolia is 2600-2800 yuan / ton, that in Fujian is 2700-2800 yuan / ton, that in Henan is 2700-2900 yuan / ton, and that in Jiangxi Province is 2700-2900 yuan / ton The fluorite market still has a small upward trend.

The market price of hydrofluoric acid in the downstream of fluorite rose slightly. As of the 10th day, the domestic hydrofluoric acid market price was 9035 yuan / ton. The rise of hydrofluoric acid market price had a positive impact on the upstream fluorite market, and the fluorite price remained at a high level. In recent years, the sales of automobile industry have improved, but the market trend of refrigerant downstream of the terminal has improved. There is no obvious improvement in the demand for refrigerant. With the continuous recovery of foreign economy, the export of refrigerant terminal may be improved. However, the domestic air conditioning industry starts at a low level and the demand for maintenance and after-sales service is weak. On the whole, foreign demand may rise. At present, the load of refrigerant R22 manufacturers is not high, the inventory is in a reasonable range, and the market price is still fluctuating. However, the market situation of price without market is obvious. The mainstream price of R22 in domestic large enterprises is 16000-18000 yuan / ton. The domestic market price of R134a is low, and the unit operating rate of production enterprises remains low. At present, the downstream start-up is not high, and the demand for R134a is cold. In recent years, the purchasing situation of downstream industry is general, and the price trend of fluorite remains stable.

Overall, the market of the downstream refrigerant industry rose slightly, but recently hydrofluoric acid merchants reported that the price of hydrofluoric acid increased slightly. Chen Ling, an analyst at the business agency, believes that the fluorite market price may maintain a high level in the short term.

1、 Price trend of epichlorohydrin

(Figure: P value curve of epichlorohydrin product)

2、 Market analysis

Since July, the overall market price of epichlorohydrin has shown a downward trend. As of July 7, the average price quoted by epichlorohydrin enterprises was 10233.33 yuan / ton, down 1.92% compared with July 1 (10433.33 yuan / ton), 6.97% lower than that on June 7, and 27.76% lower than that on January 1. At present, the price of raw material propylene is on the rise, but the downstream purchasing enthusiasm is not high, the goods of the holders are not good, some offers are lower, the operators are not confident in the future market, and the trading atmosphere is light.

According to the data monitoring of the business agency, the latest price of epichlorohydrin of some enterprises (for reference only, the spot price of merchants is subject to the market, and the actual transaction price is mainly negotiated.)

On July 7, the market price of upstream propylene in Shandong continued to rise. According to the price chart of the business agency, the recent price of propylene fluctuates periodically, with a relatively stable price range. At the end of June, the price has been at a high level, stable at the beginning of the month, and then decreased continuously. After going down 200-250 yuan / ton, the price on the sixth day was adjusted back to about 100 yuan / ton. Today, it continues to rise by 50 yuan / ton. The market transaction is between 6720 and 7000 yuan / ton, and the mainstream price is about 6750 yuan / ton. The inventory pressure of propylene manufacturers has improved, the crude oil price has slightly increased, the overall downstream market operating rate is ideal, the polypropylene futures market is good, and the purchasing enthusiasm is improved. It is expected that the propylene price will continue to rise slightly in the near future.

On July 7, the downstream epoxy resin was dominated by weak negotiation, the overall decline of dual raw materials was obvious, the cost support was insufficient, the downstream terminal purchasing was low, and just needed replenishment.

3、 Future forecast

Epichlorohydrin analysts of the business club believe that at present, the price of raw material propylene is going up, the cost is limited, and the room for profit in the cost of epichlorohydrin is limited, and there is no obvious support from the demand side. It is expected that in the short term, the epichlorohydrin market may continue to be weak and volatile, and more attention should be paid to the change of raw material price and the transaction situation in the mainstream market.

The domestic methanol market fluctuated in a narrow range. According to the price monitoring of the business agency, the domestic methanol market price was 1627 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week and then rose, which remained stable on the whole. Compared with the same period last month, the price increased by 1.40%, and the price decreased by 24.93% compared with the same period last year.

This week, the domestic methanol market showed regional differences. In Northwest China, some units were shut down for maintenance, and some upstream factories were reluctant to sell. In addition, the price of methanol futures rose, and the manufacturers actively pushed up, but the overall transaction atmosphere was general. In terms of inventory, the port and inland warehouses accumulated again this week, and the import volume remained at the level of million tons in the later stage, so it was hopeless to go to the warehouse in the short term Inventory continues to suppress methanol price; demand side mainly maintains stability, and it is difficult to increase significantly in the short term. The overall high inventory impact maintenance is good, and the domestic methanol market is in a volatile situation.

In terms of industrial chain, formaldehyde: this week, the domestic formaldehyde market was narrowed down. During the week, raw material methanol continued to decline in a narrow range, which further tightened the cost of formaldehyde, and the theoretical profit of the enterprise was meager. During the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the start-up of downstream plate plants was significantly weakened, and formaldehyde enterprises mostly followed the load reduction operation; after the festival, due to the influence of high temperature and rain, the operating load of downstream plate plants continued to be low, so the demand for formaldehyde was significantly reduced, and formaldehyde enterprises ushered in the traditional off-season.

Acetic acid: domestic acetic acid market rose sharply this week. With the return of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday to the market, manufacturers began a new round of contract delivery, with relatively low inventory and stable downstream demand, which gave strong support to the market, while the optimistic market situation of acetic acid gave support to suppliers.

Dimethyl ether: this week, the atmosphere of domestic dimethyl ether Market was stable as a whole, and the price did not change significantly. The production and sales of dimethyl ether enterprises in Henan’s main production areas are basically balanced this week. Most enterprises have no greater inventory pressure, but the overall digestion of terminal liquefied gas is general. Even if there is a narrow increase in the price, it still does not strongly stimulate the enthusiasm of the terminal to take goods. Most short-term small order replenishment is mainly used. Gas ether price difference is still small, terminal demand for dimethyl ether is general.

On the whole, methanol is constrained by high inventory, and supported by cost and crude oil. Methanol analysts of business agency expect that the domestic methanol market will maintain a narrow adjustment in the short term.

In June 2020, the market price of ethanol will be higher and higher. According to the monitoring of business agency, the market price of ethanol is 5775 yuan / ton at the beginning of the month, and 5975 yuan / ton at the end of the month, with an increase of 3.46% within the month and an increase of 11.39% compared with the same period last year.

The domestic ethanol market fluctuated upward this month, and the production enterprises remained firm under the influence of the high level of corn upstream. The price of raw corn auction continued to rise to a high level with a large premium. Under the influence of the change of rules and the increase of central reserve, the price of the fifth corn auction fell, with a small drop. The overall price remained high, and the production cost of enterprises increased. Large factories continued to implement export orders and domestic downstream purchase orders this month, and the inventory of large factories remained basically low At the same time, small factories are reluctant to sell raw materials at a high price, so they are limited in delivery.

In terms of logistics, the logistics price is stable this month, with the price of 200 yuan / ton from Jilin to Dezhou, Shandong, 320-350 yuan / ton from Heilongjiang to northern Jiangsu, 230-240 yuan / ton from Henan to Hubei, and 250 yuan / ton from Henan to Anhui. There is little change in shipping price.

In terms of raw materials, corn: the price part of the five temporary storage auctions has been implemented, with high price, high premium and high transaction rate. Ethanol enterprises actively purchase raw materials and deliver them to high prices. The cost of ethanol enterprises is high. The price of Northeast China is maintained high under the support of cost, inventory and orders.

Ethyl acetate: in June, the domestic ethyl acetate Market showed a large continuous upward trend, with an overall increase of 350-400 yuan / ton. At present, the raw material ethanol continues to fluctuate at a high level in the short term, while the downstream demand for ethyl acetate is relatively stable. It is mainly rational to purchase high price ethyl acetate. Under the pressure of short-term cost of ethyl acetate, it will remain high, and we will see whether the raw material side can continue to support in the future.

According to the price monitoring of business agency, in June 2020, there were 40 kinds of commodities in the list of commodity price rise and fall in the chemical industry sector, of which 18 commodities increased by more than 5%, accounting for 20% of the total number of commodities monitored in this plate; the top three commodities were hydrogen peroxide (32.19%), ethylene (24.98%) and sulfur (24.05%).

This month, the average rise and fall was 0.97%.

3、 Future forecast

In terms of raw materials, although the state intervenes, the price of corn will remain high under the influence of supply in a short period of time. The production cost of enterprises will be high. The orders of large factories in July will continue to be implemented. Jilin large factories have maintenance plan, but it is a round inspection. Business agency ethanol analysts predict that the domestic ethanol market is mainly narrow.

According to the data of the business agency, the weekly average quotation of domestic industrial grade formic acid is 1816.67 yuan / ton. The overall formic acid market this week is relatively stable, and the market price is not adjusted much.

2、 Market analysis

This week, the domestic industrial grade 85% formic acid market as a whole showed a relatively stable trend. The price remained in the early stage. After the market stabilized, the current price fell back from the price at the beginning of the year. However, due to the lack of export power, the storage capacity was in a saturated state. In recent months, most manufacturers gradually adjusted their prices. In terms of equipment: the manufacturer has sufficient inventory, the device operates normally, and the shipment is acceptable. This week, the supply of formic acid market is fair, and all enterprises have inventory. In terms of price: this week, the quoted price of enterprises has been basically maintained at around 1816.67 yuan / ton, the mainstream ex factory price of formic acid is about 1350-1700 yuan / ton, and the quotation of mainstream dealers is between 1950-2800 yuan / ton. Due to the high freight cost or source production cost in East China, the quotation is high. As of Friday (July 3), Jinzhou jinhongda Chemical Co., Ltd. offered 1700 yuan / ton; Zibo Pulis Chemical Co., Ltd. offered 1450 yuan / ton; Zhangzhou San’an Chemical Co., Ltd. offered 1350 yuan / ton; Luxi Chemical Co., Ltd. had quoted 1700 yuan / ton of 85% formic acid net water.

The domestic liquid ammonia Market of formic acid upstream products mainly runs smoothly, with partial consolidation. At present, the market of urea and methanol is general, and the price rises slightly, and the overall supply still slightly exceeds the demand. The domestic caustic soda market is running at a high level, and the upstream products generally support the formic acid market, while the demand for leather and pesticide industries of downstream products is relatively cold, and there is not much receiving.

3、 Future forecast

According to the formic acid data analyst of the business society, the overall price of 85% industrial grade formic acid in China is relatively stable. Recently, the inventory of dealers is fair, the downstream demand is relatively cold, and the enterprise’s shipment is not much. It is expected that the domestic industrial grade 85% formic acid market will be mainly consolidated in the short term.
