The raw material market is surging, and the price of acetone has soared 62%

In April, the acetone market was greatly boosted by raw materials. According to the monitoring data of the business agency, the price of the acetone market in East China was 3700 yuan / ton on April 3, 4900 yuan / ton on April 10, 6000 yuan / ton on April 13, and the cumulative increase of the acetone market in East China was 62%; the price of the petrochemical manufacturers was 4300-4700 yuan / ton on April 10, 5400-6000 yuan on April 13/ Tons, up 27% a day.

 

Looking back on the market in April, the raw material pure benzene rose at the beginning of the month due to the sharp rise of crude oil. At present, the raw material propylene rose again due to the sharp rise of melt blown cloth raw material. The details are as follows:

 

First of all, the reduction of crude oil production is favorable for early release, and the raw material pure benzene after the Qingming Festival is up sharply.

 

1. Crude oil is the fuse of this round of rising market. On April 2, WTI and Brent recorded their biggest daily gains, both exceeding 25%, as Saudi Arabia and Russia are expected to reach production reduction agreements. In the following days, the oil price continued to fluctuate after surging. Until the end of the OPEC + special meeting on September 9, the production reduction was less than the market expectation. The oil price fell again, WTI was 22.76 yuan / barrel, down $2.33; Brent crude oil futures was 31.48 dollars / barrel, down $1.36. In the first half of April, oil prices rose 11.13%. Crude oil is the most upstream of the petrochemical industry chain, and there is no doubt about the impact of its price changes on the whole petrochemical industry chain.

 

2. Pure benzene is not only an important product of petroleum refining, but also an important basic raw material of petrochemical industry. The linkage between pure benzene and crude oil is very high. After the Qingming Festival, with the good news of crude oil production reduction, the price of pure benzene rose sharply in the atmosphere of petrochemical industry chain. According to the data of the business club’s bulk list, after the Qingming Festival, affected by the 25% rise in crude oil, the bottom reading of pure benzene rebounded, with a strong rise. On April 5, the price of pure benzene was 2250-2850 yuan / ton (average price: 2450 yuan / ton); on April 10, the price of pure benzene was 2850-3800 yuan / ton (average price: 3240 yuan / ton), an increase of 32.4%. It can be seen from the industrial chain of pure benzene acetone that the rising power of pure benzene is indispensable from April 3 to 10. According to the monitoring data of business agency, the acetone market in East China reported 3700 yuan / ton on April 3, and rose to 4900 yuan / ton on April 10, an increase of 32%.

 

3. Another important reason for the upward trend of this round is the expected low inventory of East China’s ports. According to the business agency, the inventory of East China’s ports on April 10 was 37000 tons, compared with 65000 tons of port inventory in the same period last year, the inventory of East China’s imported acetone ports was low. On April 10, some traders reported that 50% of acetone inventory in the port has been booked by downstream isopropanol factories. However, due to the impact of the epidemic abroad, the import shipping schedule is expected to significantly reduce in the middle and late April, so the overall import volume has also declined, and the supply of acetone in the domestic market has decreased.

 

Second, the raw material propylene soared 100% over the weekend, and acetone rose 27% again

 

1. Why does propylene soar? After the Qingming Festival, polypropylene (PP), the main downstream product of propylene, soared. Firstly, polypropylene fiber material entered the crazy level of RMB 10000 per day. Secondly, polypropylene (drawbench) rose from RMB 6383 / ton to RMB 8533 / ton from April 6-10, with an increase of 33.68%, which led to a sharp rise in the market of PP varieties. From the perspective of propylene polypropylene industry chain, polypropylene, which accounts for 70% of propylene market, rose sharply, Propylene is also on the rise. Taking Shandong market as an example, according to the monitoring data of business association, the price of enterprises in Shandong region generally increased by more than 1000 yuan / ton on April 12, up 35.02%. Some enterprises even increased by 5000 yuan / ton, up nearly 100%. The market transaction suddenly increased from 5000-5200 yuan / ton to 8000-12000 yuan / ton.

 

2. With the increase of propylene, the cost pressure of phenol ketone enterprises increases. The acetone market, which was in the situation of pushing up, took advantage of the rising trend of raw material propylene, and the acetone plant recorded the largest increase in a single day, with the next round of upward range far exceeding expectations. According to the monitoring data of the business association, on the 13th, acetone in North China (Yanshan Petrochemical and Zhongsha Tianjin) rose by 1000 yuan / ton, with an offer of 5400 yuan / ton, and that in East China (Shanghai Gaoqiao, Sinopec Mitsui and Yangzhou Shiyou) rose by 1000-1100 yuan / ton; the price of 1100 yuan / ton in East China acetone market was 6000 yuan / ton, which was far higher than expected.

Thirdly, the operating rate of the downstream disinfectant isopropanol plant remained high, and the demand for acetone continued to increase.

 

1. Due to the increasing demand of overseas disinfectant Market, the isopropanol market continues to soar. According to the monitoring of the business agency, on March 14, isopropanol offered 6025 yuan / ton, and on April 13, isopropanol offered 12333 yuan / ton, up 104.7% in the past month. At present, isopropanol in the U.S. continued to rise, while isopropanol in Europe ended stable and fell. From the perspective of China’s export price, the price of export to Europe remains high in the short term. As of the 13th day, the negotiation range of domestic regions is about 12500-13000 yuan / ton. According to the current international situation, the demand for disinfectant and other resources in the European market will remain high. From the perspective of export orders, the current export orders have been scheduled to the first ten days of May, and the current market is expected to continue to be good until June. Of course, we should continue to pay attention to the progress of overseas public events. If the inflection point does not appear until May, the overseas isopropanol procurement will continue or be postponed to August. Business analysts believe that the domestic price of isopropanol will remain high, and follow-up attention will be paid to the change of news.

2. From the perspective of the acetone isopropanol industrial chain, affected by the overseas epidemic, the demand for isopropanol continued to improve, the market offer remained high, the profit of isopropanol plant was considerable, the operating rate of isopropanol plant was at a historical high, and the demand for acetone increased unabated. On April 10, the market price calculated that the profit of isopropanol by acetone method was still 5000 yuan / ton, and on April 13, the price of isopropanol rose 1500 yuan / ton again, and the demand for acetone rose sharply under the slight tension of supply.

 

Finally, people in the chemical industry are in a good mood. Since the single day rise of crude oil in early April, it has brought opportunities to the energy and chemical industry and plastic industry, especially for the products under the petrochemical industry chain, such as grasping the life-saving straw to copy the bottom, pushing up against the trend, increasing the market activity, increasing the enquiries of aromatic hydrocarbon and other products traders, small and medium-sized trading enterprises to copy the bottom inventory, and terminal enterprises to balance the product profit space under the high price raw materials in the early stage and actively store the low price Price of raw materials, high market participation. Secondly, with the increasing demand for respirators and other anti epidemic materials, PP, as the raw material of respirators, started to drive the sharp rise of propylene. According to the price monitoring of the business agency, on April 13, 2020, there are 63 kinds of commodities in the list of rising and falling prices of bulk commodities, accounting for 30.58%, which are mainly concentrated in the chemical sector (26 kinds in total) and the steel sector (11 kinds in total), and the commodities with an increase of more than 5% are mainly concentrated in the chemical sector; they are propylene, respectively (58.56%), acetone (27.27%), propane (24.94%), propylene oxide (21.05%), PP (16.89%), butanol (industrial grade) (15.5%), polyester staple fiber (12.88%), phenol (11.85%), isopropanol (5.71%), pure benzene (5.54%), cyclohexanone (5.06%). On the 13th, commodities with flat prices accounted for 50.97% and commodities with declining prices accounted for 18.45%. The average rise and fall of 13 days was 1.13%, and the average rise and fall of the bulk market for 5 consecutive days was positive, with good market confidence.

 

To sum up, the raw materials of pure benzene and propylene have risen sharply. As the proportion of propylene in raw materials is far less than that of pure benzene, the cost side of phenol ketone plant increased little on the 13th, and the profit is still considerable. Under the support of both raw materials and demand, the acetone market is stable in the short term, or there is still a narrow upward space. From the perspective of acetone market, the upward trend in the later period may offset the profit brought by the increase of cost However, according to 75% of the operation of phenol ketone plant, the terminal demand of phenol Market is not optimistic, and the phenol Market is expected to decline. Overall, the profit of phenol ketone plant in the later period depends on the phenol Market. According to the analysts in the chemical industry of business society, many chemical enterprises need to reduce the operating rate or shut down under the current soaring raw materials. The current demand in the terminal market is far less than expected. The downstream factories will inevitably resist the high price raw materials, and it is also an inevitable trend that propylene will return to the rational price range in the later period. Once the price of raw materials falls, phenol will be affected by the rational callback, but acetone will face the supply If two-way benefits are needed, the price may remain high in the short term.

2、 Market analysis

 

Product: this week, R134a market of refrigerant market is stable, middle and low. In the near future, the terminal demand of refrigerant R134a is general, and there are few new orders, so the focus of market transaction is explored. On the demand side, the time for ordering in advance in the after-sales maintenance market is coming to an end. The automotive industry has not fully recovered its production capacity, and the demand for refrigerant R134a is not high. At the same time, the trend of hydrofluoric acid at the end of raw material is declining, which is bad for refrigerant R134a. On the whole, it is difficult to boost the demand end of refrigerant R134a in a short period of time, and the support force at the raw material end is weakened, so the market may continue to weaken. According to the price monitoring of the business agency, as of April 13, the market price of refrigerant R134a was concentrated around 21000 yuan / ton – 22000 yuan / ton.

 

Industry chain: this week, the price trend of hydrofluoric acid slightly declined. In recent years, the on-site manufacturers are not in good condition, some domestic manufacturers are restarted, the domestic spot supply of hydrofluoric acid is sufficient, the downstream demand is low, and the price trend of hydrofluoric acid market continues to decline. In recent years, the price of raw material fluorite has declined, the price of hydrofluoric acid market has been affected to some extent, and the price of hydrofluoric acid in China has declined. By the end of the week, the southern region The mainstream of hydrofluoric acid negotiation in the district is 9000-10500 yuan / ton, and the price of hydrofluoric acid in the northern market is 9500-11000 yuan / ton.

 

Industry: according to the price monitoring of the business agency, in the 14th week of 2020 (4.6-4.10), there are 28 kinds of commodities in the list of commodity price rise and fall in the chemical industry sector, including 13 kinds of commodities with an increase of more than 5%, accounting for 14.9% of the number of commodities monitored in the sector; the top three commodities are pure benzene (21.34%), crude benzene (20.34%) and acetone (15.79%). There are 28 kinds of commodities falling on a month on month basis, with 5 kinds of commodities falling by more than 5%, accounting for 5.7% of the number of commodities monitored in the sector; the top three products falling are ethylene (- 11.31%), butadiene (- 10.19%) and aniline (- 5.63%). This week’s average was up or down 1.05%.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

The refrigerant analyst of the business club thinks that: at present, the demand side of refrigerant R134a is difficult to improve, the support of the raw material side is weak, and the market of refrigerant R134a is expected to be further explored in the short term.

Industrial chain:

 

Upstream: from January to April 2020, the mainstream price of acrylonitrile in the domestic market continued to decrease. At the beginning of January, the quotation was about 11200 yuan / ton, which was reduced by 100 yuan / ton for many times; in the middle of the year, the quotation continued to decline slightly, which was reduced by 50 yuan / ton to 10650 yuan / ton for three times; by the end of the decade, the decline had been about 4000 yuan / ton, with a fluctuation of about 20%; on February 21, the mainstream price was about 9500 yuan / ton, decreased by 200 yuan / ton on 24, decreased by 300 yuan / ton on 27, and decreased by 150 yuan / ton to 8850 yuan / ton on 28 , 1750-1800 yuan / ton lower than before, about 17% lower; in March, acrylonitrile continued to decrease, to 8100 yuan / ton on the 10th, 8000 yuan / ton on the 25th, to 100 yuan / ton on the 26th, to 50 yuan / ton on the 30th, to 7800 yuan / ton on the 31st, and to 1000 yuan / ton that month. In April, the price of acrylonitrile did not stop falling back. The quotation on the first day of the current month was 7450 yuan / ton, down about 4.5% compared with the quotation at the end of March. On the second day, it dropped 150 yuan / ton to 7300 yuan / ton, and on the third day, it dropped 150 yuan / ton to 7150 yuan / ton. On the first day (7 days) after the Qingming holiday, it was 6800 yuan / ton, down 350 yuan / ton. On the eighth day, it was 6650 yuan / ton, on the ninth day, it was 6500 yuan / ton, and on the tenth day, it was 6400 yuan / ton It’s amazing how fast and how large it is! In the first ten days of April, the decline of acrylonitrile exceeded 17.9%, with a total decline of about 1400 yuan / ton.

 

Downstream: at present, the downstream water treatment project construction enterprises have a lot of project negotiations, but the implementation is still slow, and the demand for raw materials has been restored.

 

Manufacturer: the production situation of the manufacturer is good, the inventory is high, the consumption is in progress, the current downstream demand is limited, and the raw material cost continues to decrease.

 

EDTA 2Na

Industry: during the Spring Festival holiday in January 2020 to February 20, the relevant enterprises in the main production area stop production and delay to return to work. After February 20, the manufacturers in the main production area returned to work. At present, the logistics in March is back to normal, and the inventory is in constant consumption. It is reported that the logistics cost in some regions has increased since, and the quotation has increased during the period of less vehicle return to work due to the delay in construction, etc., but the transportation cost has been reduced after most logistics enterprises go to work in the near future; in April, the downstream construction is still recovering gradually, and the demand still needs to be recovered in time.

 

Aftermarket forecast: according to the analysis of business agency, the price of upstream raw material acrylonitrile was lowered by 1400 yuan / ton again in the first ten days of this month, and the cost of polyacrylamide was greatly reduced. Under the current situation of weak demand, the inventory is high, and the manufacturer’s price is still possible to be lowered. It is expected that the market price of Polyacrylamide in the future will remain stable and weak.

2、 Market analysis

 

Products: the return of Qingming holiday, the domestic PVC market ushered in a wave of rising market. Recently, PVC futures rose sharply, driving spot prices up. In the first quarter of this year, the PVC market was not good, the price continued to go down, the profits of the enterprises decreased sharply, the mentality of the operators was not positive, and the wait-and-see mentality was strong. In April, PVC enterprises gradually entered the state of maintenance in spring, the market output decreased, the social inventory decreased, and the supply side improved PVC. On July 7, PVC prices rose to varying degrees, and some manufacturers closed their bids without reporting. In the psychology of buying up and not buying down, the enthusiasm of downstream purchasing increased. The overall trading atmosphere of the market improved, the sales pressure was relieved to a certain extent, and the price fixing psychology of production enterprises was obvious. Finally, PVC market ushered in the long-term rising trend. However, at present, the market supply is still slightly loose, domestic terminal demand is not large, and foreign export orders are reduced. Whether PVC can continue to rise in the future depends on the recovery of demand side. According to the data monitoring of the business agency, as of April 7, the main quotation range of domestic PVC is around 5350-5750 yuan / ton. At present, the mainstream price of pvc5 carbide in Changzhou is around 5450-5550 yuan / ton, the interval price of pvc5 carbide in Hangzhou is about 5430-5530 yuan / ton, the mainstream price of PVC ordinary carbide in Guangzhou is around 5500-5530 yuan / ton, and the real deal can be negotiated.

 

Futures: PVC contract opened high in 2009 and continued to rise. On July 7, the opening price was 5405 yuan / ton, the highest was 5495 yuan / ton, the lowest was 5390 yuan / ton, and the closing price was 5490 yuan / ton, up 185 yuan / ton, or 3.49% compared with the previous transaction. The trading volume decreased to 185067 hands, and the position increased by 6660 hands to 185225 hands.

 

Import and export: according to the latest data released by the customs, from January to February 2020, China imported 89200 tons of PVC powder and exported 61700 tons of PVC powder. In total, the import volume of 99500 tons from January to February 2019 decreased by 10300 tons or 10.35%; the export volume of 93800 tons from January to February 2019 decreased by 32100 tons or 34.22%.

 

Ferrous Fumarate

Industry chain: on April 2, WTI crude oil futures market prices in the United States rose sharply, with main contracts at 25.32 yuan / barrel, up $5.01. Brent crude oil futures market prices rose sharply, the main contract at $29.94/barrel, up $5.20. WTI and Brent recorded the biggest daily gains, both exceeding 25%. According to the business community, global demand is still the decisive factor restricting oil prices. The prevalence of public health events may lead to a sharp contraction of economic activities, which cannot support the price of ethylene, so analysts of business data expect that the price of ethylene will keep a narrow decline in the future. In terms of carbide, the recent ex factory price of carbide in Northwest China may fluctuate slightly: the manufacturer’s quotation is about 2600-2700 yuan / ton.

 

Industry: according to the price monitoring of the business agency, on April 7, 2020, there are 7 commodities in the list of commodity price rise and fall in the rubber and plastic sector, with PET (4.90%), PP (4.44%) and PVC (2.54%) as the top three commodities. There are two kinds of commodities falling on a month on month basis, PC (- 3.19%) and PS (- 0.44%) respectively. The average price of this day is 0.69%.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

PVC analysts of the business club believe that: at present, PVC futures are rising, the spot market is rising, and some enterprises are entering the spring inspection, with the support of the supply side, it is expected that PVC trend will be stronger in the short term, and there is further expectation of rising.
