In November, the chemical market fell more

According to the relevant data, in November 2012, China's domestic chemical market rose more or less. Of the 68 chemical species monitored, 30 products were rising in price in November, of which only 3 products were increased by more than 5%, and 34 products were decreased in the chain, of which 9 products fell by more than 5%.

According to the analysis, the price fluctuation range of the chemical market has narrowed substantially, and it is expected that there will be a slight fluctuation adjustment trend in December.

Data show that in November, the largest increase in dry aluminum fluoride product monthly rate rose only 7.3%, far below the 40% increase in the championship acrylic acid in October. At the same time, the monthly decline rate of TDI products with the largest decline in November was 11.74%, which was lower than the 19.31% of polysilicon in October.

Zhang Ming believes that downstream demand and raw material costs are the most important factors affecting the market. Since the start of **, the cost of phenol, **, aniline, etc. has been transmitted to the lower reaches of the country. The prices of crude benzene and coking benzene have also been supported. As the polyurethane products industry has entered the traditional off-season, the major raw materials such as MDI, TDI, and BDO have all been supported. Actively lowering the price to adapt to the market, the downturn in the PVC market has also constrained the trend of chlorinated paraffin.

The dominant factor in the price of some products is demand. Products such as MDI, TDI, BDO, and Acrylic were affected by both cost support and demand suppression, and the former fell to the bottom, ending the uptrend in the “Yinshi” period and opening the prelude to adjustment in the fourth quarter.
