The transaction of plasticizer in the market was general, and the downstream market was significantly higher. The price of domestic phthalic anhydride was greatly increased.

On the whole, crude oil prices have risen recently. In addition, winter is the peak sales season for the plasticizer industry, and the prices of plasticizer products have increased significantly. The phthalic anhydride market is supported by favorable conditions, and the price continues to rise.

In the future, the domestic phthalic anhydride price trend is rising, but the plasticizer transaction market continues to rise, the driving force is insufficient, and the resistance of plasticizer price rising increases. It is expected that the market price of phthalic anhydride will fall back to a high level in December.
