Analysis review
Cost side
According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of SunSirs, on July 23rd, the reference price of propylene was 7,138.25 RMB/ton, an increase of 0.07% compared to July 1st (7,133.25 RMB/ton). In the recent stage, the price of raw material propylene has been running narrowly and weakly, and the cost has supported for the acrylic acid market, resulting in a decrease in low-priced acrylic acid sources.
Supply and demand side:
In the recent stage, some equipment has undergone maintenance, and the supply side has provided some support for the market. The mentality of the industry was still good, and manufacturers were firm in their offers. Downstream buyers were more cautious about purchasing high priced raw materials, mainly following up on demand and in moderation. The focus of negotiations in the acrylic acid market has shifted upwards.
Market outlook
An acrylic acid analyst from SunSirs believes that the acrylic acid market has been operating steadily with recent cost and supply support. In the short term, cost support may still exist, and there is relatively no significant positive support for terminal demand. Downstream rigid demand orders are the main focus. It is expected that the acrylic acid market will remain strong to wait and see in the short term, and more attention should be paid to market news guidance.
