Market dynamics of rubber chemicals recently

Last week, there were noticeable changes in the average prices of various chemicals:

1.MIBK price (methyl isotetraketone) increased: The average price of MIBK (methyl isotetraketone) increased by US$13 per ton

2. Aniline price rise: The average price of aniline increased by US$6 per ton

3. The price of cyclohexylamine increased: the average price of cyclohexylamine increased by US$13 per ton

4. The price of pure benzene rises: the average price of pure benzene rises by US$20 per ton

5. Acetone prices are stable

6. The prices of other auxiliary raw materials are basically stable.

Accelerators still maintain their tepid status in the early stage, and the cost of raw materials is high and has slightly increased. However, the overall market price of accelerators has basically remained stable. At present, the downstream market has entered the traditional off-season, and the actual transaction of accelerators has further slowed down. Accelerators currently exist between high costs and low demand, with prices at a stalemate. It is expected that accelerators will remain stable next week, and downstream purchases will be made as needed.

There has been a certain differentiation in anti-aging agents. Due to the tight supply of RD, the transaction price has risen a level compared to the previous period and remained stable; 4020 has digested part of the upward pressure, but the upstream price increase and the downstream demand are weak, and there is a certain state of anxiety. The game continues ; 4010NA remains relatively stable, with supply and demand basically balanced, and downstream purchases are made on demand; various influencing factors will not change much next week, and antioxidant prices will remain basically stable.

The supply of insoluble sulfur remains sufficient and prices remain stable; prices of zinc oxide, stearic acid, silane coupling agents and anti-scorch agents remain stable.
