Product Name: cryolite

Latest price (August 11): 7625 yuan / ton

Key points of analysis: the price trend of cryolite in Henan is temporarily stable, and the average price of cryolite production is the same as that of the previous working day. The manufacturer reflects that the upstream raw materials are still tight, the raw material prices are high and the impact of the high level of coal, natural gas and other fuels, the production cost of the enterprise is high, the low load operation of the cryolite unit is the main factor, the enterprise inventory is tight, and the demand in the downstream is stable, which supports the high level operation of the cryolite price.

Future forecast: the short-term cryolite market is temporarily stable, and the future market will focus on the market supply.

Product Name: urea

Latest price (August 10): 2312 yuan / ton

On August 10, the comprehensive price of domestic urea fell slightly, with a decrease of 40 yuan / ton or 1.70% compared with the price on August 9, and a year-on-year decrease of 17.43% compared with the same period last year. The upstream cost is generally supported, the downstream agricultural demand is basically ended, and the industrial demand is dominated. The starting load of the plate plant is not high. The compound fertilizer plant is mainly on the sidelines. Some manufacturers have overhauled, and the daily output of urea is about 150000 tons.

In the future, it is expected that the domestic urea market price may rebound at the bottom, and the average market price is about 2350 yuan / ton.

According to the price monitoring of the business agency, on August 9, the average price of sulfur in East China was 1130.00 yuan / ton, an increase of 3.04% over the previous working day. The market was stable and small, and the quotations of individual refineries were increased by 20-80 yuan / ton.

At present, the downstream sulfuric acid market continues to be weak, and the purchasing enthusiasm is general. The domestic sulfur market is mostly stable, and the price trend is stable but small. The sulfur sales of refineries in Shandong Province are acceptable. The manufacturers increase their prices according to their own inventory and shipment. Because there are low-cost goods in the field and the downstream demand is limited, it is expected that the sulfur market will be mainly arranged on a wait-and-see basis, and the price trend will be increased in a narrow range. Specific attention will be paid to the downstream follow-up.

Trend chart of average price of phenol in the national market

During the week, the domestic phenol market was first improved and then suppressed. At the end of July, several major domestic factories successively issued shutdown and maintenance news, and some of them suspended supply during the shutdown period, and contracted households reduced supply. Stimulated by the favorable supply side, the phenol market quotation was strong and rising, and the downstream inquiry was actively replenished. The suppliers were even more difficult to make profit with low price. The market in East China rapidly increased by 9300 yuan / ton from 9100 yuan / ton on July 28, The increase was more obvious in other mainstream regions. However, the crude oil fell sharply in the middle of the week, and after the general rise of the factory on Wednesday, the traders reported high and low intentions. With the decline of the downstream replenishment mood, the trading in the market was in a cold state, and the actual transaction fell. The phenol Market in East China dropped to 8880 yuan / ton.

Phenol offers in various markets throughout the country during the week are as follows:

Region, quotation, weekly rise and fall

East China, 8880, – 300

Shandong Province, 9150, 50

Surrounding areas of Yanshan mountain, 9150, 50

South China, 9000, 250

The second phase of Zhejiang Petrochemical will be restarted next week. Considering the decline of domestic plant operation rate, the overall impact on supply side is not great. However, considering that there is not much room for the cost side to continue to decline, the carriers may continue to make firm offers, but the terminal downturn demand situation is difficult to change. The business community expects that the phenol market will rise and fall next week, and the overall negotiation will be adjusted in the range of 8850-8950 yuan / ton.
