The market of n-butanol rose steadily in the first ten days of August
Since the beginning of August, China’s n-butanol market began to rise steadily. The high price of raw material propylene and propylene gave the cost support to n-butanol manufacturers. The factory inventory was low. The quotation price of n-butanol continued to rise. The manufacturers mainly delivered the contract orders, the downstream replenishment was more positive, the purchasing mentality was good, the cost pressure was increasing, the volume of goods was limited, and the market offer was firm Market prices are running at a high level. As of August 15, the average ex factory price of domestic n-butanol was 5733.33 yuan / ton. Compared with August 1, the average price of domestic n-butanol increased by 233 yuan / T, or 4.24%.
In late August, the market of n-butanol turned weak and maintained stability

The downstream demand has weakened, the preliminary maintenance has been completed, the plant operating rate has increased, and the inventory has increased. The offers of some factories in Shandong Province have been slightly reduced by 50-100 yuan / ton. Propylene high support, high cost pressure, n-butanol downward space is limited, the market overall market consolidation run for a week.

Propylene manufacturers to ship smoothly, inventory without pressure.
Under the pressure of cost, the space of n-butanol negotiation is limited, and the future market is mainly multi-dimensional stable
At present, the domestic n-butanol market continues to be flat, with small orders as the main deal, and large orders are rare. The attitude of the operators is to wait and see. The high price of raw material propylene supports the cost of n-butanol, and the profit pressure of the plant is large. Therefore, the market discussion space is limited. It is expected that the domestic n-butanol market will maintain stable operation in the short term.
