Recently, the price trend of domestic hydrofluoric acid continues to rise. Up to now, the mainstream price of domestic hydrofluoric acid in various regions is 10000-10500 yuan / ton. The domestic hydrofluoric acid trading market is mainly rising. Recently, the domestic hydrofluoric acid spot supply is slightly tight, and the floor price continues to rise.

First of all, the market price of fluorite, the raw material of hydrofluoric acid, rose. As of the 22nd, the domestic price of fluorite was 2730 yuan / ton, with a price increase of 0.41% in January. Recently, the domestic spot supply of fluorite was tight. With the decrease of temperature, some manufacturers in the North stopped their plants, and the supply in the yard was slightly tight. The domestic price of fluorite rose slightly. Up to now, the mainstream of domestic fluorite negotiations is 2600-2800 yuan / ton. The high price of fluorite on the floor is supported by the cost of hydrofluoric acid market, and the price of domestic hydrofluoric acid market rises due to the positive support.

The domestic refrigerant market rose slightly. Recently, the sales market of the automobile industry has improved, and the refrigerant market has improved. The demand is mainly based on demand. The trend of the refrigerant industry has increased, and the market of various types of refrigerants has increased slightly. However, the manufacturers are under pressure to ship, the sales pressure is large, the price of raw material hydrofluoric acid is rising, which brings a certain cost support, and the refrigerant export volume has little change The output of downstream air conditioning is low, the demand is scarce, the off-season effect of after-sales market continues, and the price of refrigerant increases little. On the whole, the positive factors support the refrigerant market generally, and the price increase is limited. At present, the load of refrigerant R22 manufacturers is not high, the inventory is in a reasonable range, and the market price remains at a low level. However, the downstream receiving capacity is limited, there is a lot of wait-and-see sentiment, the delivery of goods is not smooth, and the actual transaction focus rises slightly. Some businesses still have the phenomenon of cost inversion. The mainstream of on-site negotiations is 13500-16000 yuan / ton. The market trend of domestic R134a rose slightly, but the auto industry continued to be depressed, and the transaction atmosphere was light. The supply of goods on the floor is sufficient, and the market will be affected by new production capacity in the future. The competition is fierce, and the supply side is gradually bad. The price is slightly higher, but the downstream demand is not significantly improved, and the price trend of hydrofluoric acid market is slightly higher.

Third: the domestic spot supply of hydrofluoric acid is slightly tight. Some hydrofluoric acid plants are overhauled in the hydrofluoric acid yard, and the market price of hydrofluoric acid continues to rise. Up to now, the mainstream negotiation of hydrofluoric acid in the southern region is 9600-10500 yuan / ton, while the price of hydrofluoric acid in the northern market is 10000-10500 yuan / ton. Recently, the price trend of domestic hydrofluoric acid market is mainly rising, and the manufacturers reflect that they are bullish in the near future, and the price of hydrofluoric acid Market in the later period has a greater driving force.

In general, due to the high price of raw material fluorite, the price of downstream refrigerants rose slightly, and the recent overhaul of some domestic hydrofluoric acid plants, the spot supply on the site was slightly tight. Supported by multiple positive factors, Chen Ling, hydrofluoric acid analyst of business community, believes that the market price of hydrofluoric acid may continue to rise.

According to the bulk data monitoring of business news agency, the ethyl acetate market continued to rise due to the sharp rise in the cost side and the centralized stocking of downstream products. As of January 20, the average price of enterprises in East China was about 7675 yuan / ton, up 16.73% from the same period last week and 8.48% from the beginning of this month.

Affected by the continuous high price of raw material acetic acid, the cost side support of ethyl acetate is strong. In addition, the downstream market concentrates on pre holiday stock, and the market supply is tight. The overall transaction in the industry is positive.

At present, it is about 7800-7900 yuan / ton in East China, 7600-7700 yuan / ton in North China and 8100-8200 yuan / ton in South China.

In terms of raw materials, the domestic acetic acid market continued to rise. Affected by the reduction of enterprise maintenance burden and downstream centralized stock preparation, the spot supply of acetic acid market was reduced, and the trade and investment in the industry were in good condition. In some areas, it was difficult to obtain one product, and the supply side gap could not be effectively made up in a short time. In terms of ethanol, the price of corn continues to rise, traders and farmers are reluctant to sell, and the short-term price remains high. At present, the price of ethanol in East China is about 7312 yuan / ton.

Ethyl acetate analysts of business news agency believe that the current domestic ethyl acetate Market is in short supply, the market demand is stable, and the cost side continues to rise. The double benefits support the strong operation of the ethyl acetate Market. It is expected that the ethyl acetate Market will remain strong before the end of the month.

In 2020, the price of NBR dropped from 16333 yuan / ton at the beginning of the year to 13266 yuan / ton on April 21.

From late April to early September, the price of NBR fluctuated between 13266 yuan / ton and 14000 yuan / ton. The price of NBR fluctuated in a narrow range in the second and third quarters, which was mainly affected by raw materials and supply and demand side. On the one hand, the operating rate of NBR was low, basically hovering below 60-70%. Although the operating rate rose after August, the supply side was relatively tight in the third and fourth quarters, which formed a certain support for NBR; on the other hand, the cost side of Brent crude oil was between 20-44 US dollars / barrel, which was low The price of NBR was suppressed; in addition, although the demand side was better than that at the beginning of the year, it still did not reach the previous ideal state, so the demand side was also bad for NBR.

At the beginning of September, the price of NBR began to rise rapidly, from 13583 yuan / ton in early September to 19566 yuan / ton on December 15, the highest point of the year, and then dropped slightly to 19000 yuan / ton at the end of the year. Although the rise in the third and fourth quarters was also driven by the rebound of raw material prices in the early stage, it was mainly affected by the supply and demand side in the later stage. First, the price of raw materials rose, forming support for NBR. The price of butadiene increased from 5612 yuan / ton in early September to 9938 yuan / ton in late November, with an overall increase of 77.08%. Secondly, the operating rate of jinjiuyinshi NBR continued to drop to 75%, with little pressure on the supply side; finally, since September, the epidemic situation abroad continued to be serious, the demand for medical NBR gloves was strong, the supply of NBR latex exceeded the demand, and the price rose to nearly 30000 yuan / ton. Driven by profits, some manufacturers switched production lines of NBR and switched to NBR latex. The supply of other brands of NBR in the market decreased. In addition, the operating rate of downstream insulation foaming and hose industries of jinjiuyinshi traditional NBR dry rubber increased compared with the previous period. The whole demand side showed a strong performance and had a rigid support for NBR dry rubber.

As shown in the figure above, the trend of butadiene in 2020 will have a partial impact on NBR. At the beginning of the year, the price of butadiene dropped from 8312 yuan / ton to 3501 yuan / ton on April 16, with an overall drop of 57.88%, but the price of NBR only dropped by 18.87%. Butadiene prices began to rebound in late July, while NBR remained in a narrow range. Butadiene and NBR began to synchronize in October, and the decline rate of butadiene in December was significantly lower than that of NBR again. To sum up, the price of NBR in 2020 will be affected not only by butadiene, but also by supply and demand side.

Future forecast: business analysts believe that at present, due to the epidemic situation has not improved in the short term, the consumption of medical gloves is still huge, and the demand for nitrile rubber latex is strong, so as to continue to boost the nitrile dry rubber market; in addition, the OPEC meeting has reached an agreement, there will be no huge increase in crude oil in the next few months, the bullish atmosphere of crude oil will be stronger, and the raw material cost will have a certain impact in the next few months It is expected that the price of NBR will remain at a high level in the first half of 2021, and even if it falls, the range will not be too large. In the second half of 2021, with the vaccination of Xinguan vaccine, the epidemic situation may tend to be well controlled, and the consumption of medical gloves may fall to a certain extent. At that time, the price of NBR will fall to a certain extent. However, with the improvement of macro economy, the price of NBR will rise steadily. On the whole, the price of NBR will show a V-shaped trend in 2021, and it will be an annual low in 2021.

As of January 12, the average price of enterprises in East China was about 6575 yuan / ton, down 7.07% from the beginning of the month.

After the new year’s day, the downstream terminal market of ethyl acetate gradually entered the off-season, the overall shipment of the industry was not smooth, the trade was weak, the overall start-up of ethyl acetate production enterprises was stable, the accumulated inventory was high, and the enterprises were forced to reduce the price and ship. At present, there are about 6350-6450 yuan / ton in East China, 6350-6450 yuan / ton in North China and 6950-7050 yuan / ton in South China.

In terms of raw materials, the acetic acid market started smoothly and the market supply was abundant, but the overall demand of the downstream market was poor. In addition, the epidemic situation in Hebei Province rebounded, the industry was cautious in purchasing, the trading was weak, and the bearish attitude was strong. The price of raw material corn in ethanol market will continue to maintain a high level, the start-up of corn ethanol under the cost pressure will continue to maintain a low level, the plant will not shut down in winter, the order delivery will basically be maintained in the short term, and the price will remain stable. It is expected that the domestic ethanol market will be mainly sorted out in the short term. At present, ethanol in East China is about 7075 yuan / ton.

Analysts of ethyl acetate from the business community believe that the current situation of oversupply in the domestic ethyl acetate Market is increasingly apparent. In addition, the weak operation of raw material acetic acid market makes it difficult to alleviate the short-term negative factors. It is expected that the weak operation of ethyl acetate Market in the near future.

Saudi Arabia’s additional production reduction pushed up crude oil and gasoline prices, driving up domestic MTBE market prices. According to the data of business news agency, the price of MTBE on January 8 was 4333 yuan / ton, up 4.42% from the beginning of the week.

This week, the international crude oil market was frequently bullish. This week, the price of WTI crude oil exceeded the US $50 / barrel mark, with a weekly increase of 7.67%, while the price of Brent crude oil increased by 8.09%. In terms of gasoline demand, cold weather, increased demand for car travel, coupled with the sharp rise in international oil prices, the oil product market is bullish. However, a small number of outbreaks in Hebei and Liaoning have led to road control in surrounding areas, affecting terminal transactions, and limiting the price rise of gasoline market.

At present, the domestic MTBE supply and demand fundamentals basically maintain a stable situation, and the small rise of gasoline price makes the middleman’s purchase intention of MTBE and other intermediate materials acceptable; in addition, the sharp rise of international crude oil price pushes up the post production cost of MTBE, and the MTBE manufacturers have serious losses, so they have a strong intention to increase.

MTBE product analysts of business society energy branch think: there is still room for international crude oil prices to rise, while the price of refined oil is rising steadily, but the rise is limited. At present, the inventory of MTBE manufacturers is at a low level, and the price of MTBE is expected to rise
