The market of cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber rose in February. According to the monitoring of the business society, the price of cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber was 11360 yuan / ton at the beginning of February, and rose to 13060 yuan / ton at the end of the month, with an overall increase of 14.96% at the end of the month compared with the beginning of the month. In February, cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber manufacturers increased for many times, and the market price rose rapidly.
In February, the demand for cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber was general. During the Spring Festival, the operating rate of downstream tire factories dropped sharply, which was basically within 30% of the festival. After the festival, the operating rate rose slowly. Some manufacturers began to work gradually after January 16 to increase the load, and the overall purchasing of cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber was weak.
The overall supply of cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber in February is not loose, and the supply is expected to decline in the later period. According to the business news agency, the Shunding unit of Sichuan Petrochemical Company was temporarily shut down for maintenance in February, and the Shunding units of Qilu, Maoming, Daqing and Dushanzi were normally started. In the later March, the Shunding units of Yanshan and Maoming had a shutdown and maintenance plan, and the overall supply side was expected to be tight, forming a support for the Shunding rubber.
In February, the price of butadiene, the raw material of cis-1,4-polybutadiene, rose sharply, and the cost side was more supportive of cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber. According to the monitoring of the business agency, the price of butadiene was 6056 yuan / ton at the beginning of the month and 8235 yuan / ton at the end of the month, with an overall increase of 35.98%.
Future forecast: business community analysts believe that the overall synthetic rubber industry chain rose sharply in February, the current international crude oil price adjustment at the end of the month, cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber may face a small adjustment in the short term. Later, with the increase of downstream operation rate, the demand side will support cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber. In addition, the supply side is expected to be tight. It is expected that cis-1,4-polybutadiene rubber will continue to dominate after the adjustment.
