In terms of demand

 

Recently, the melamine market has cooled down, and demand has been moderately followed up. It is reported that some sheet metal factories have recently reduced their operating load, and considering that the supply of melamine will increase in the later maintenance and restoration of multiple factories, downstream manufacturers and traders have reduced their demand for melamine procurement.

 

Overall, the operating rate continues to rise, and the operating rate of melamine will also be limited by profits. Domestic demand in September may weaken, and in the long run, the market lacks guiding factors and may mainly follow the trend.
