The high-temperature weather of dichloromethane gradually subsided, and the traditional production off-season of the terminal air conditioning plant came, and the demand side weakened; The operating level of diluent, cleaning and pharmaceutical industries is stable, and the support for dichloromethane is weak.

Future forecast: Analysts of the methane chloride data of the business association believe that the domestic supply of methane chloride is still loose, but the cost shows signs of rising. It is expected that dichloromethane will continue to rebound slightly in the later period, but the upward range will not be too large due to the restriction of demand.

The market price of PTMEG (1800 molecular weight) is 20000-23000 yuan / ton, and the negotiation evaluation is 19000-21000 yuan / ton. The price of pure MDI is stable at 18000-18500 yuan / ton, and the barrel of T / T is self collected. The traders usually ship at stable prices, and the downstream demand is still weak.

The downstream textile and clothing consumption is still in the off-season, mainly maintaining the rigid demand, and the terminal weaving load is maintained at a low level due to the influence of high temperature and power limitation. The round machine field starts 30-40%, and the warp knitting field starts 60%. The comprehensive startup rate of Jiangsu and Zhejiang looms is reduced to below 48%. Orders are still insufficient, and the follow-up of raw material procurement is slow.

Business analysts believe that the cost side remains weak and stable, the enthusiasm of end customers is not good, and the spandex market lacks good news support. It is expected that the focus of the spandex market will remain weak in the short term.
