In the first week of August, the domestic market price of phthalic anhydride declined, and the market of phthalic anhydride was in general. In recent years, the downstream demand was poor, the price of o-benzene fluctuated at a low level, the plasticizer line was weak, and the trend of phthalic anhydride price fell. Domestic phthalic anhydride manufacturers started operation generally, and the operating rate of phthalic anhydride was about 60%. The domestic phthalic anhydride spot supply was sufficient, and the downstream plasticizer industry procurement was not active. The on-site merchants had a strong wait-and-see mood, and the exchange trading market fell. The price of phthalic anhydride market in East China declined, and the high-end transactions were limited. In East China, the mainstream of neighboring France source negotiation was 4900-5100 yuan / ton, while that of naphthalene process was 4700-4800 yuan / ton; the mainstream quotation of phthalic anhydride market in North China was 4900-5000 yuan / ton, and the phthalic anhydride market was still in a wait-and-see attitude, and the market price of phthalic anhydride fell.

 

This week, the domestic o-benzene price remained low, and the on-site price remained at 4400 yuan / T. the low price of domestic o-benzene was a big negative effect on the phthalic anhydride market. In addition, the import market of o-benzene in the port area declined, and the external price of o-benzene declined. The actual transaction price was subject to negotiation. The detailed list was discussed. In addition, the on-site o-benzene merchants had a strong wait-and-see mood, the low price of o-benzene fluctuated, and the raw material of o-benzene was o-benzene Low price is unfavorable to domestic market price of phthalic anhydride.

At the beginning of August, the DOP market price in the downstream of phthalic anhydride dropped slightly. According to the monitoring of the business agency, the domestic DOP price was 7000 yuan / ton, which was 0.47% lower than the price of 7033.33 yuan / ton at the beginning of the month. The price of isooctyl alcohol in the field fell down. DOP device operated stably, the spot supply was sufficient, and the DOP market price was lower. The market of plasticizer industry declined. DOP market quotation was 6800-7100 yuan / ton. The transaction volume of plasticizer in the market decreased, and the downstream market was poor. Affected by bad luck, the domestic market price of phthalic anhydride declined slightly.

 

Generally speaking, under the background of severe epidemic situation, it is very difficult for fuel demand to fundamentally improve. Although the United States and Europe have recently introduced economic stimulus policies, most of them are monetary policies. Due to the particularity of the epidemic situation, it is difficult to solve the problem from the perspective of increasing money supply. Recently, the crude oil price has a rising trend, but the domestic plasticizer industry is depressed, and the market price of phthalic anhydride falls.

 

In the future, the domestic o-benzene price trend is mainly volatile, but the transaction price of plasticizer is not good, the price of plasticizer has a downward trend, and the downward pressure of DOP market in the future market still exists. It is expected that the market price of phthalic anhydride in August will decrease slightly.

China’s domestic p-xylene price trend is stable in July

Domestic price trend:

 

povidone Iodine

According to statistics, in July, the domestic price of p-xylene was stable. At the beginning of the month, the domestic price was 4800 yuan / ton, and at the end of the month, the domestic PX market price was 4800 yuan / ton. The price trend was stable, with a year-on-year decline of 31.43%. The external price fluctuation was the main factor for the domestic PX market, and the external price fluctuation had a certain guiding effect on the domestic price.

 

In recent years, the domestic market price trend of p-xylene is temporarily stable. The domestic PX operating rate is about 60%. Sinochem Hongrun Petrochemical Co., Ltd. has put into operation a 600000 ton new unit, Yangzi Petrochemical plant has been running stably, fuhaichuang plant has been operating in one line, Pengzhou petrochemical plant has been running stably, Yangzi Petrochemical plant has been operating normally, Jinling Petrochemical plant has been running smoothly, Qingdao Lidong unit has been operating at full load, Qilu Petrochemical Company has been operating steadily The operation of the unit is stable. The start-up of Urumqi petrochemical plant is about 50%. The domestic supply of p-xylene is normal. Affected by crude oil price fluctuation, the domestic PX market price trend is stable. The international crude oil price fluctuated mainly in July, and the external price of PX rose slightly. As of the 30th, the closing price in Asia was 525-527 US dollars / ton FOB Korea and 543-545 US dollars / ton CFR China. Recently, the operation rate of PX units in Asia was about 60%. The supply of PX goods in Asia was normal. The closing price of PX increased slightly in July The price trend of p-xylene market is stable.

 

With the gradual recovery of the economy and the recovery of crude oil demand, the closing price of the international crude oil price in July remained around $40 / barrel. As of the 30th, the settlement price of the main contract in the WTI crude oil futures market in the United States was at $39.92/barrel, and the settlement price of the main contract in the Brent crude oil futures market was at $43.25/barrel Although the United States and Europe have recently introduced economic stimulus policies, most of them are monetary policies. Due to the particularity of the epidemic situation, it is difficult to solve the problem of striking demand from the perspective of increasing money supply. At present, the rebalancing of market supply and demand is mainly due to the efforts of oil producing countries to limit production. However, according to the previous agreement reached by OPEC +, the record production reduction will end in July. If OPEC + reduces the share of production reduction, it may further break the balance of the current oil market and increase the pressure on demand. Crude oil prices face the risk of decline, and the market price of p-xylene may drop accordingly.

In July, the price trend of downstream PTA market declined slightly, while the domestic PTA spot market market declined. As of the end of the month, the average price of PTA market was 3570.44 yuan / ton, 1.04% lower than that at the beginning of the month, and 36.16% lower than that at the beginning of the month. In July, the domestic PTA market was weak, new units were put into operation, terminal demand was weak, supply increased, inventory was high, fundamentals were under pressure, and the price fluctuated downward. At the end of the month, the cost side support and terminal demand were on bargain hunting, and the tail showed a slight recovery. Affected by the price decline of downstream PTA market, the domestic p-xylene market price trend was temporarily stable.

 

Chen Ling, an analyst at Px, a business agency, thinks that the crude oil price has the risk of falling in the near future. In addition, the domestic and foreign trade of the terminal has been recovering slowly, and the order performance is unstable. At present, the raw material procurement is mainly required. If the follow-up orders cannot be followed up in time, the market price of p-xylene in August is expected to decrease slightly.

In July, the domestic phenol market price decreased first and then rose, and the positive effect was difficult to realize in the short term

In July, the domestic phenol market first suppressed and then rose, with an overall downward trend. According to the monitoring data of business agency, on July 1, 2020, the average price of phenol in China was 7150 yuan / ton, and on July 31, it was 5800 yuan / ton, with the market down by 18.88%.

Trend chart of phenol commodity index in East China

 

The overall decline of the market in July was mainly due to the sluggish demand for terminals and the poor procurement of terminal factories, which just needed to be followed up, and the market confidence was not optimistic. However, the domestic phenol Market is relatively sufficient, and the market is still difficult to get rid of the downward trend under the game of supply and demand.

 

The decline in demand is the main reason for phenol’s downward trend, and the main reason for the stagnation at the end of the month. According to statistics, the bisphenol a plant downstream of phenol has been started in 60%. The 150000 T / a bisphenol a plant of Sinopec No.3 well will be shut down on July 20. It is expected that the BPA plant in South Asia will be shut down for maintenance on July 18, and the plant will start operation in late August. In addition, the 135000 T / a BPA plant of Changchun Chemical Co., Ltd. will be shut down for two weeks in July. Another important downstream phenolic resin industry started to maintain stable, operating rate fluctuations. To sum up, the phenol market demand side was relatively weak and the support was insufficient. When the market went down to about 5500 yuan / T, the market stopped falling. Although there was a short-term positive stimulation from the bisphenol a market, the more important thing was that the high-level inventory of the shippers was not high, and the overall market price supporting intention was relatively strong. Therefore, the market continued to rise several times in the middle and late July, but the terminal market did not buy more Just need Inventory, the market is in a stalemate.

In July, the phenol market continued to fall sharply in the early stage, but after the middle of the month, the market was in a deadlock, and the upward support was insufficient. The market was in a dilemma and ended in a weak end at the end of the month. Now the phenol Market is in a weak and weak state. The main domestic supply is sufficient. First, the port replenishment is relatively sufficient. In July, a large number of phenol from Thailand, Singapore, Saudi Arabia and South Korea arrived in Hong Kong. At present, about 8000 tons of phenol from Thailand arrived in Hong Kong in early August. On the whole, the port volume is relatively moderate and the replenishment is relatively sufficient. The second is the high operating rate of domestic factories. The recent start-up situation of domestic factories is as follows. It can be seen from the figure below that except Sinopec three well unit is still under maintenance, other units are operating at full capacity. In August, Zhejiang Petrochemical’s 650000 T / a phenol ketone unit is expected to be put into operation, and the social supply is expected to be very sufficient.

 

Recent maintenance status of phenol ketone plants in China

 

From the perspective of business agencies, in August, at present, the operating rate of phenol plants in China has reached a high level. At the end of August, Sinopec Mitsui phenol ketone plant will also resume production. Although some ports have delayed arrival, they are expected to arrive in the warehouse to replenish port inventory in the short term. In August, the factory will implement new contracts, but the demand side is difficult to improve greatly, and the overall downturn is expected The market is expected to continue to decline in early August, and the price space in East China is expected to be 5400 yuan / T.

Chitosan oligosaccharide

2、 Analysis and comment

 

This week, the price of isomeric xylene fell slightly and continuously. Affected by the lower profit margin and lower operating rate of downstream PX manufacturers, the demand for isomeric xylene slowed down, and the logistics was not smooth due to the superimposed flood situation, and the transaction of isomerized xylene was not active. At present, the mainstream price in East China is about 3600 yuan / ton. Due to the demand doubts brought about by the increase of new crown cases and the deepening of international relations confrontation, the market continues to pay attention to the impact of the continued spread of overseas epidemic situation on the demand for crude oil caused by the economic restart, and the possible economic recovery rescue plan launched by Europe and the United States.

 

Upstream, crude oil, this week’s international oil prices fluctuated higher from Monday to Thursday, fell back on Friday to adjust. At present, the crude oil price is generally in the oscillation range. As of Friday, spot Brent fell $0.815/barrel, or 1.86%, to close at $42.895. The longer the oscillation lasts, the greater the possibility of large fluctuations in the future. Therefore, we must not be paralyzed by the boring market. The future market closely watched the fluctuation and breakthrough of Brent crude oil in the range of 40-44 USD / barrel.

3、 Future forecast

 

Xylene analysts of the chemical branch of business society believe: in the short term, OPEC + production reduction, total number of oil drilling in the United States and EIA, API inventory data in the short term. In the medium term, on the demand side, the economic and trade situation in Europe and the United States, the geographical situation between China and the United States, and the continuous deterioration of the global second epidemic situation have an impact on the demand for crude oil for economic restart, the progress of industrial chain recovery, and the impact of poor logistics caused by the flood situation. Next week, we will focus on the impact of the continued spread of the overseas epidemic on the demand for crude oil, and the possible economic recovery rescue plans launched by Europe and the United States. On the whole, it is expected that xylene prices in the domestic market will continue to fluctuate slightly next week.

Melamine

For phenol, from the end of July, the operating rate is expected to pick up, the supply is relatively sufficient, the demand side is looking at the buyer’s downturn, the industry’s prosperity is not good, and the factory’s start-up is also gradually declining. From the international situation, some factories are gradually returning to work, and the import volume is steadily increasing. As for the phenol Market, it is difficult to find the low price. As for some traders, the cost of holding goods in the early stage is high, and the mentality of raising price is strong. However, the downstream bid is low, the factory is close to the settlement, and the market supply is slightly tense, and the actual transaction is not optimistic. The business association predicted that the demand side is hard to say good, and the supply side is full of bad news, and the phenol Market is hard to change in the short term.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

Salicylic acid analysts of the business agency believe that the consumption off-season superimposes the southern plum rain season, which suppresses part of the demand. Salicylic acid enterprises generally ship goods and light trading. It is expected that the trend will continue to be weak and stable in the short term.

Under the high price of n-propanol, there may be “shipping risk”

According to the price monitoring data of business agency, as of July 10, the reference average price of domestic n-propanol including packaging in mainstream areas was around 11900 yuan / ton, which was basically stable compared with the price on the first day of this month; compared with the price on June 1, the average price increased by 733 yuan / ton, or 6.57%. Compared with the price on April 1 at the beginning of the second quarter, the average price increased by 1833 yuan / ton, or 18.21%.

 

Melamine

Since mid April, n-propanol has entered the upstream channel, and the strong trend in the past two months is mainly due to the support of raw material ethylene and the rising market of isopropanol, downstream users turn to replenish their positions and use n-propanol as solvent. From April to now, the trend of isopropanol has been repeated, but n-propanol can be described as a steady rise all the way, mainly due to the factory’s active regulation and control of the operating rate of n-propanol, the low level of n-propanol inventory, and the sharp rise of raw material ethylene price to the steady rise of the market of n-propanol.

 

The market of n-propanol was stable in the first ten days of July

 

In July, the domestic n-propanol market was mainly stable, with low plant operating rate, tight supply and small inventory pressure, which supported the stable offer of n-propanol. 8. On the 9th, with the obvious downward trend of isopropanol market, the wait-and-see mood of downstream manufacturers of n-propanol increased, the atmosphere of transaction was relatively cold, the market shipping resistance was large, and more on-demand procurement was given priority to.

 

As of July 10, Nanjing area: the manufacturer Nanjing Rongxin Chemical Co., Ltd., the normal operation of 30000 T / a n-propanol plant, the ex factory quotation of n-propanol for external bulk water is 11000 yuan / T (cash purified water ex warehouse price), the current price is the same as the price of 1 day, the supply is tight, and the goods are delivered according to the plan; in Shandong area, the mainstream delivery price of n-butanol (bulk water) is 10800-11200 yuan / T, and the low-end bulk water is in the range of 10800-11200 yuan / T The delivery price is 10500 yuan / ton, the high-end bulk water is 11500 yuan / ton; the mainstream delivery price of n-butanol barrel is 11600-12000 yuan / ton, and that of rare high-end barrel is 12500 yuan / ton. Shanghai: with the rise of the price of domestic n-propanol, some traders in Shanghai have also raised the price of imported n-propanol (barreled) one after another. The current quotation is around 13500-14000 yuan / ton. Dealers in various regions still have reservations about the price. It is not easy to monitor the price, which may lead to differences in the specific negotiation situation. Each region also has its own differences. The actual negotiation is mainly based on the actual order, and the future market needs to wait and see the price of raw materials Change of qualification and shipment.

 

In the upstream sector, since July, the propylene oxide market has been mainly in a small decline. At the beginning of the month, downstream purchasing customers were strongly resistant to high prices, and the buying orders were cold and the follow-up of new orders was weak. Under the increasing inventory pressure, the mentality of supporting prices became weak and the market quotation was lowered. As of July 9, the reference price of propylene oxide was 9833.33 yuan / ton, down 133 yuan / ton or 1.34% compared with July 1 (9966.67 yuan / ton).

 

Sodium Molybdate

In terms of raw materials, the overall market of ethylene in the first week of July still showed a slight upward trend. 7, part of the ethylene market fell. As of the 9th, the European ethylene market fell, with FD northwest Europe offering 769-779 US dollars / ton, down 25 US dollars / ton; CIF northwest Europe quoted 750-758 US dollars / ton, down 6 US dollars / ton; Asian ethylene market remained stable, CFR Northeast Asia quoted 795-805 US dollars / ton, CFR Southeast Asia quoted 745-755 US dollars / ton. In the near future, the price of ethylene in Asia is mainly on July 10, 2020, and the demand is general. The future market changes are affected by the continuous decline of upstream crude oil price. It is predicted that the following decline will be the main trend. The US ethylene market was mainly down, with FD US $335-353 / T, down US $2 / T, the price was still low and the market demand was general.

 

Under the high level of n-propanol in late July

 

On the whole, the raw material market of n-propanol from ethylene process has risen rapidly since April. With the sharp rise of cost, the profit of n-propanol has been reduced continuously, and the offer of factories has been rising. Although the market of ethylene in Asia has declined slightly in recent two days, the overall trend is still high. Therefore, according to the current situation, the market price of ethylene process n-propanol has little space to decline. However, with the sharp decline of isopropanol, the advantages of the solvent market have become weak. At present, the pressure of market shipment is increased compared with the previous period. Under the guarantee of profits, the operators will more support the price operation. Therefore, the factory will regulate the operating rate of n-propanol of ethylene process in late July to stabilize the market Price, when the market does not rule out that the manufacturer reduces the profit for competitive shipment and lowers the ex factory price of n-propanol.

Benzalkonium chloride

This week, the price quoted by the mainstream manufacturers of potassium chloride in the upstream was temporarily stable. Some new sources of goods still arrived at the port, and the supply of goods was relatively sufficient. The main contradiction in the market is that the supply exceeds the demand, the trading atmosphere is cold and the domestic potassium chloride market remains stable. Limited support for potassium carbonate.

 

Potassium carbonate analysts of the business club believe that the domestic potash fertilizer market has maintained a relatively stable trend in the near future, and the upstream potassium chloride supply is sufficient. Although the price continues to be at a low level, the rebound space is relatively limited. It is expected that the price of potassium carbonate will mainly fall below in the short term, and the long-term market still needs to wait and see. (the above prices are provided by major potassium nitrate manufacturers all over the country and analyzed by potassium carbonate analysts of business club for reference only.
