Separated products:
The mixed C5 in Shandong increased by 20 yuan / ton to 3100-3230 yuan / ton, while that in East China stabilized at 2950-3060 yuan / ton. The remaining C5 is 3050-3300 yuan / ton in Northeast China, 2950-3050 yuan / ton in North China, 3000-3050 yuan / ton in Central China and 3000-3130 yuan / ton in South China.
The main delivery price of isoprene in China remained stable at 8200 yuan / ton, and the market inquiry was positive. SIS increased production and increased demand for isoprene. At present, the profits of isoprene rubber and sis are better, which supports the isoprene market, and isoprene maintains firm.
The mainstream self raised price of m-pentadiene in China is 8400-8700 yuan / T. Sinopec is still in shutdown, and the price of adhesive resin is firm, which has certain support for the isoprene market. The supply of m-pentadiene is slightly tight, and the market is slightly firm.
The domestic market of dicyclopentadiene continues to be weak, and the self raised price is around 4400-4850 yuan / ton, and the enthusiasm for receiving goods from downstream has not significantly increased. In terms of UPR, affected by the high price of maleic anhydride, the start-up of DC series is difficult to recover. Although DCPD hydrogenated resin has a stable demand for bicycles, it mostly uses digestion inventory or its own raw materials, so it has limited procurement in the spot market, and the market continues to maintain a weak trend in the near future.
rosin
At present, it is difficult to reduce the price of resin, and the downward rate of rosin price slows down. However, in the short term, the price of rosin is temporarily unstable, and rosin resin factories will wait and see. The market price of turpentine is 27000-28500 yuan / ton in Jiangxi, 11400-15100 yuan / ton in Guangdong, 11400 yuan / ton in wetland, 13500 yuan / ton in Yunnan, 15000 yuan / ton in Fujian, 11400 yuan / ton in Jiangxi, 14500-15000 yuan / ton in 138 resin, 14700-15500 yuan / ton in 145 resin, and 27000-28500 yuan / ton in market price of turpentine. In the short term, the rosin market is still out of stock. Most of the manufacturers think that the price of rosin will rise after the adjustment of rosin stage by stage. However, in the short term, the rosin price fluctuates, and the purchase quantity of rosin resin factory is scarce, and the supply of rosin resin is scarce, so there is more single discussion.
C5 petroleum resin:
At present, the mainstream transaction price of C5 petroleum resin for road marking paint is 10000-10600 yuan / ton. Although the demand in the north is low, the supply of the manufacturer is insufficient, and the manufacturer mainly supplies adhesive resin, and some parts are still out of stock. The manufacturer has few stock, and the price is stable within the overall range; the transaction price of C5 petroleum resin for adhesive (M-E) is operating in the range of 12000-13000 yuan / T Due to the concentration of orders, the continuous shortage situation, and the fluctuation of rosin price, the operating rate of resin factory is low. In the short term, C5 petroleum resin manufacturers mainly execute orders and operate stably in the price range.

Release Time: November 12, 2020 08:22

The energy minister of Algeria said that OPEC may extend the current scale of production reduction to 2021, and the possibility of increasing the reduction is not ruled out. International oil prices continue to rise, but the epidemic situation in Europe and the United States is still very serious, which has restrained the increase. In terms of n-Pentane, Isohexane, Isopentane, n-Hexane, n-Heptane and Pentane Blends, the sales situation of each manufacturer was not satisfactory yesterday, at present, n-alkane series products like n-Pentane and n-Octane are sold less, and they mainly focus on delivery of the backlog orders today. In the aspect of pentane blends, the manufacturers are operating in low invertory level, and therefore there is enough confidence for price stability support because the market is out of stock. However, the current price is close to the high level, and some downstream regions are in a state of resistance. It is expected that the market will maintain stable operation today.

In addition, Saudi Arabia suggested that oil producing countries could adjust their current production reduction policies, and international oil prices continued to rise. However, the overseas epidemic situation still worried the market and restrained the increase. In terms of n-Pentane, n-Hexane, n-Heptane, Isopentane, Isohexane, pentane blends and D20 Solvent, at present, for non-n-alkane hydrocarbon products, although the market price of raw materials is lower, and the cost pressure of manufacturers is relieved, it is still in the loss range. The resumption of downstream work is basically normal, but there is still a certain distance to return to normal demand. Especially, the sharp drop of pentane foaming agent product price has reduced the planned production of pentane foaming agent products of various manufacturers more or less, as for pentane blowing agent products, although product price competitiveness has increased, but sales price pressure increases, from all aspects are negative leading. The refinery’s shipment was poor yesterday, and it is expected to be dominated by shipment today. In the aspect of mixed C5, the refinery inventory is running at a low level, and there is sufficient base gas for price rising.

The mainstream ex factory price in Shandong is 3100-3230 yuan / ton, and that in East China is 2950-3060 yuan / ton.

Normal alkanes such as n-Pentane, n-Hexane, n-Heptane and n-Octane in domestic market are volatile. Prices have risen slightly and supplies are running short. For some manufacturers, in order to maintain the old customers, they reduced the price and sold at a cut profit, and the market quotation range is still down. Considering the current alternating maintenance of domestic and foreign devices at manufacturing plants, the suppliers of each manufacturer still have the right to speak, and the overall supply of goods is still tight.
