According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of the Business Society, the prices of plasticizer products have skyrocketed after the holiday.

During the May Day holiday, equipment malfunctions occurred in isooctanol manufacturers. After the holiday, the price of isooctanol skyrocketed, and the prices of raw materials skyrocketed. In response, the price of plasticizers skyrocketed after the holiday.

 

The price of isooctanol skyrocketed after the holiday

 

From the comparison of prices of major isooctanol manufacturers before and after the May Day holiday, it can be seen that the prices of major isooctanol enterprises have skyrocketed after the holiday. Due to the impact of hydrogen peroxide equipment accidents, it has been difficult to ship isooctanol, resulting in a surge in isooctanol prices, a significant increase in the cost of plasticizer products, and an increase in the upward momentum of plasticizers.

 

Future expectations

 

Analysts from Business Society’s plasticizer product data believe that due to the impact of the Luxi chemical accident, the price of isooctanol has skyrocketed, and the cost of plasticizer products has increased, leading to a significant increase in plasticizer product prices. In the future, as isooctanol manufacturers resume supply, the cost of plasticizer raw materials is bound to fall, and the demand for plasticizers remains weak, with insufficient support for downstream increases. It is expected that plasticizer prices will remain high in the short term, and then may fall back from high levels.
