Tin continued to rise throughout 2021, and the price of tin nearly doubled. At the beginning of 2021, the average market price in East China was 151887.50 yuan / ton, and at the end of the year, the average price was 300037.50 yuan / ton, with an annual increase of 97.54%. In the futures market, LME tin rose by 91.19% in 2021, and the main contract of Shanghai tin rose by 86%.

 

On December 29, the tin commodity index was 151.70, down 0.06 points from yesterday, down 0.24% from the highest point 152.06 in the cycle (2021-10-21), and up 253.94% from the lowest point 42.86 on December 9, 2015. (Note: the period refers to the period from September 1, 2011 to now).

 

The commodity price K-bar chart uses the concept of K-line of price trend to reflect the weekly or monthly price changes in the form of bar chart. Investors can buy, sell and invest according to the changes of K-bar chart. Red means: rising; Green means: falling; The height of K column indicates the range of rise and fall.

 

Looking at the monthly K-bar chart of the tin market in 2021, most of the tin ingot Market rose in 2021. Except March and October, the other 10 months maintained an upward trend, of which the largest increase occurred in January, with a monthly increase of 13.78%; The biggest decline was in March, with a monthly decline of 5.56%.

 

Tight supply at mine end

 

The tin market will go up unilaterally in 2021, and the logic of maintaining the price rise throughout the year is that the supply side is tight. In terms of mine end supply, more than 90% of China’s tin mines depend on Myanmar’s imports. In 2020, affected by the reduction of local tin mines in Myanmar, China’s import data decreased significantly compared with previous years. In December last year, China imported about 16000 tons of tin concentrate, a month on month decrease of 7.82% and a year-on-year decrease of 19.12%, but December is the month with more tin concentrate imports in 2020. In 2020, China exported 158000 tons of tin concentrate, a year-on-year decrease of 11.27%. The data of 21 years is also not optimistic. According to the data of the General Administration of customs, China imported 11831 tons of tin ore sand and concentrate in November 2021, a month on month decrease of 40.35% and a year-on-year decrease of 32.53%; From January to November, China imported 170975 tons of tin ore sand and concentrate, with a year-on-year increase of 20.42%, of which the import from Myanmar accounted for 80.7% of the total import.

The downstream demand is good and the acceptance is high

 

At present, the main application field of tin in China is the electronic industry. In the consumption structure of refined tin metal, solder accounts for about 44% and tin plate accounts for about 16%. Therefore, the development of the electronic industry, including the development of new energy industry, has a great impact on tin. In 2021, with the recovery of the global economy, the demand for 3C products, automobiles and new energy vehicles at the downstream terminals is relatively strong, and the downstream demand is good, which once again benefits the tin market and promotes the further strengthening of tin consumption. The overall application of tin in downstream commodities accounts for a relatively low proportion and uses less. Therefore, even if the price of tin rises all the way, it has little impact on the profits of downstream enterprises. Therefore, the downstream has a strong acceptance of high prices, which is also a factor contributing to the rise of tin prices in the past 21 years.

 

Looking at the historical price trend comparison chart of Tin over the years, we can intuitively find that the word “record high” has appeared frequently for tin prices in the past 21 years.

 

In the first quarter, the tin price rose and then fell. At the beginning of the year, the supply of imported ore in Myanmar continued to be tight, the domestic production was limited during the Spring Festival holiday, the domestic supply continued to be tight, and the tin price rose all the way. Later, with the gradual recovery of domestic production and transportation, the downstream demand was weak, the resistance to high price tin ingots was strong, the purchase intention was low, the domestic inventory accumulated, and the tin price began to fall.

 

Second and third quarter: Tin prices rose steadily. The mine side supply continued to be tight, the domestic tin mine output was difficult to increase, the global tin inventory continued to be low and other favorable factors boosted the tin price all the way up. Moreover, foreign demand is good, domestic inventory is transferred abroad, and domestic inventory continues to decline. During the same period, Nanfang mining will suspend the production of tin concentrate for 60% min, and some smelting enterprises will stop production, which will boost the tin market again, and the price will rise steadily.

 

Fourth quarter: in October, the downstream demand side was gradually weakened by the power restriction policy, and the peak production of solder and other industries had a limited impact on the overall demand for tin. On the whole, the smelter continues to be affected by double control of energy consumption, power restriction policy and shortage of raw materials. The output of refined tin is still low and the overall supply is still tight. Import: Myanmar’s import is still blocked, Mengbo port is still closed, the subsequent tin import is expected to decline, and the tight supply at the mine end will continue. Overall, the tin market is mixed with bad and good, but the supply is still low. Therefore, the tin price rises again after a slight fall.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

In the future, the tin price has been at an absolute high in history. The Spring Festival holiday is coming soon. It is expected that the supply and demand will weaken before and after the Spring Festival, and the inventory has shown some performance. The current absolute high price of tin has made the downstream used to purchasing on demand in 21 years. Globally, the terminal demand for tin is mainly concentrated in countries and regions with more developed semiconductors such as Europe, America, Japan and South Korea. In the past 22 years, with the intensification of economic recovery, the demand for tin in the electronic semiconductor industry is expected to be better. China’s consumption in the field of electronic products has also maintained a rapid growth. On the demand side, tin has many positive factors. Overall, tin will remain in a tight supply situation in 2022, and tin prices are expected to remain high.

 

Relevant data:

 

Global semiconductor sales hit a record high from January to November 2021: the semiconductor industry association (SIA) announced on January 3, 2022 that the global semiconductor sales in November 2021 was US $49.7 billion, a year-on-year increase of 23.5% and a month on month increase of 1.5%. SIA represents 98% of U.S. semiconductor companies and nearly two-thirds of non-U.S. chip manufacturers.

 

The latest report data released by the world Bureau of Metal Statistics (WBMs) in December showed that the global tin market had a surplus of 2100 tons from January to October 2021. From January to October 2021, the output of refined tin increased by 16000 tons compared with the same period last year, and the apparent demand increased by 1.7% to 321200 tons compared with the same period last year. In October 2021, the global refined tin output was 30100 tons and the consumption was 29900 tons.

In 2021, the BDO market price was in a relatively high position, and the price trend went out of the most “distinctive” pace in the past five years. The annual market rose and fell sharply, and then rebounded strongly. Until the end of the year, the BDO price was mainly high and volatile. According to the monitoring data of business agency, the domestic BDO production price was 12800 yuan / ton at the beginning of the year, and rose to 30830 yuan / ton at the end of the year, with an annual price increase of 140.86%. The lowest price was 12800 yuan / ton on January 1 at the beginning of the year, and the highest price was 31500 yuan / ton in the middle and late of the first quarter on March 5, with a maximum amplitude of 146.09%. In a short period of time, the price rose rapidly, with a huge increase. Insiders lamented that BDO stepped out of the “six relatives” at the beginning of the year.

 

Trend chart of domestic BDO market in 2021:

 

Comparison chart of BDO price trend from 2017 to 2021:

 

Monthly K column chart of 1,4 butanediol (BDO) domestic production price:

 

BDO’s annual price quotation is divided into four stages: rapid rise stage in the first quarter, ladder decline stage in the second quarter, slow rebound stage in the third quarter, and high consolidation stage from the fourth quarter to the end of the year.

 

In the first stage, according to the monitoring data of business agency, the average price of domestic BDO manufacturers increased from 12800 yuan / ton on January 1 to 30700 yuan / ton on March 31, an increase of 139.84%.

 

Trend chart of domestic BDO market in the first quarter of 2021:

 

The domestic BDO market bottomed out and rebounded in the second half of 2020, and the rise continued until late November. After that, the market entered a high Stalemate Stage until mid January 2021. Supported by various favorable factors, such as reduced supply, limited transportation, bullish replenishment in the downstream, hot industry dark horse PBAT market, sharp increase in demand and so on, the state of the domestic BDO market in more than 20 days is “rising”.

 

Since the second half of 2020, PTMEG spandex industrial chain has been the most prominent downstream industry of BDO. The start of terminal weaving is high, the digestion of spandex is stable, and then the consumption of PTMEG is increased. As the largest downstream industry of BDO, PTMEG’s high-level operation also increases the consumption of raw materials. Other downstream industries are also developing healthily, with increased demand. Especially in the recent Spring Festival holiday, the State encourages “local Spring Festival”, and many large downstream factories “don’t stop work during holidays”. Therefore, many middle and downstream customers enter the market to make up their positions. At the same time, the downstream industry dark horse – PBAT industry, driven by the National Plastic restriction policy, the demand surged, thus increasing the digestion capacity of raw materials.

 

Sulfamic acid 99.80%

In the second stage, according to the monitoring data of business society, the average price of domestic BDO manufacturers fell from 29825 yuan / ton on April 1 to 17485 yuan / ton on June 30, a decrease of 41.37%.

 

Trend chart of domestic BDO market in the second quarter of 2021:

 

In early April, the factory started stably and the supply was abundant; However, the terminal follow-up was weak, the high price raw materials squeezed the downstream profit space, the market was cautious to make up positions, the auction price continued to decline, and there was a strong bearish mood on the floor. The supplier’s shipping mentality and profit negotiation. By may, the supply and demand of raw materials were bad, and the BDO market was “unsustainable” in May. The delivery price of calcium carbide in Northwest China decreased significantly by 575 yuan / ton compared with April; Methanol in Northwest China decreased by 212.5 yuan / ton compared with April, and the cost of BDO raw materials decreased. In addition, although the unit was shut down for maintenance or catalyst replacement within the month, there was no obvious benefit at the supply end due to the digestion of early-stage inventory; The terminal demand is weak, the downstream market is cautious, and the BDO spot market falls again and again. In June, the domestic BDO market was affected by the change of purchase and marketing mentality of the industry. The decline continued in the middle of the first half of the year, turned sharply to the bottom in the second half of the year, rebounded and continued to rise. In the first and middle of May, in addition to the short shutdown of Xinjiang Meike phase II to replace the catalyst, many maintenance units were restarted and stabilized in May, and the market supply was abundant. Traders’ fear of falling mentality increased and made a narrow margin to speed up the pace of shipment.

 

In the third stage, according to the monitoring data of business society, the average price of domestic BDO manufacturers increased from 17325 yuan / ton on July 1 to 30125 yuan / ton on September 30, an increase of 73.88%.

 

Trend chart of domestic BDO market in the third quarter of 2021:

 

At the beginning of the third quarter, some factories released the maintenance news from July to August, and mainly delivered contract orders and spot controlled supply. The main traders had limited supply and strong willingness to be reluctant to sell. They mainly delivered early orders and offered few new orders. Some bulls continued to speculate, the middle and lower reaches continued to chase up and cover positions, and the focus of the negotiation was explored. In August, BDO market rose sharply and entered consolidation. Meike phase II has not been restarted. Lanshantun River and Xinye have been shut down for maintenance, and Shaanxi chemical has replaced the catalyst. In addition, due to the impact of rainstorm and epidemic situation, the transportation in some areas is slow, the supply of goods is tightened again, and the domestic BDO market continues to rise. After more than a month of rapid rise, BDO downstream has obvious resistance to high prices, and the positive transmission is not smooth. Traders have entered the wait-and-see stage, so the BDO market has entered a high consolidation period. With the restart of the unit, the positive support of the market weakened, and the domestic BDO market turned downward.

 

First fell and then rose, and the BDO market “rose again” in September. At the end of August and the beginning of September, the whole BDO domestic market was mainly on the sidelines at the beginning of the new moon. The overall supply and marketing is weak, and it seems that the market situation of BDO’s current round of “singing all the way” has come to an end. As BDO units such as great wall energy, Shaanxi black cat, Yanchang Petroleum, Cathay Xinhua and Shaanxi chemical all stop for maintenance at different times, the overall operating rate decreases, the supply of goods in the market is tight, the favorable support on the supply side appears, and the operator’s trading mentality is cautious. BDO market “recovery is in sight”. Then, the market is mainly affected by the continuation of multi device maintenance status, the overall supply of the market is tight, the factory mainly delivers contract orders, the spot volume is limited, the operator’s trading mentality is stable and preferred, and the domestic BDO market continues to rise.

 

In the fourth stage, according to the monitoring data of business society, the average price of domestic BDO manufacturers rose from 30125 yuan / ton on October 1 to 30830 yuan / ton on December 31, an increase of 2.34%, and the overall market fluctuated at a high level.

 

Trend chart of domestic BDO market in the fourth quarter of 2021:

 

sulphamic acid

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the supply continued to shrink. Although some enterprise devices were started and the maintenance was completed, some enterprise devices were still under maintenance. The overall operating rate declined, the supply decreased, and the BDO market ushered in a short rise. In October, the domestic BDO market continued the rising trend in September, the price continued to rise and the rise slowed down, which was in line with the traditional “golden nine silver ten” market performance of chemicals. The short-term BDO market supply is still tight due to multiple factors: some units are due for maintenance, but many new discontinued units are added; Delayed delivery of orders in some areas due to poor transportation; At present, the operating rate of normal enterprises is low, the production capacity is general, the enterprise inventory is relatively low, and the speculation mentality of traders makes the BDO market rise again.

 

In November, the domestic BDO market fell into a “dilemma”, and the overall price fluctuated at a high level. Manufacturers delivered more contract orders, the spot volume was limited, and the high offer actively supported the market. Part of the downstream industries give up profits for promotion, the transmission of high cost pressure is blocked, the ability to accept high prices is weak, and the focus of negotiation continues to rise. Therefore, the BDO market only rose slightly. The downstream has a mentality of resistance to high priced raw materials, and the focus is to explore obstacles, so the market is in a dilemma.

 

Near the end of the year. Most of the main manufacturers maintain a price guarding mentality and are cautious about going low, while the middle and lower reaches lack confidence in the future market, the spot follow-up is light, some manufacturers have a strong shipping mentality, and the focus of real orders moves down. Each device operates stably and the overall market supply is abundant. However, the start-up of downstream enterprises such as PTMEG and PBT declined slightly, and other downstream enterprises also maintained the follow-up of just needed orders. The actual demand decreased, and most of them were resistant to high prices. They mainly maintained contract procurement, and their enthusiasm for spot follow-up was not strong. “Breaking the bottleneck”, BDO market opened a downward channel.

Rise and fall chart of BDO industrial chain in 2021:

 

At the beginning of 2022, the domestic BDO market is “upside down”. The overall market supply is loose. The load of PTMEG and PBT in the main downstream decreased and the digestibility decreased; Other downstream are also in conflict with high prices, and the intention to prepare goods before the festival is not strong. The price market “fell down the altar”. In 2021, the market trend of BDO has been “Crazy”, the high level has lasted for a long time, and the downstream has long had a mentality of resistance. Although the main production enterprises have placed their hopes on reducing supply by adjusting the unit operating rate and increasing maintenance, the downstream conflict caused by long-term high price makes the current social inventory still in a high position. With the downstream industries entering the holidays one after another, the demand side is even more difficult. The bad start seems to indicate that the BDO market is also time to “return to normal”.

According to the data monitoring of business society, the price of industrial and battery grade lithium carbonate has been rising this week. On January 13, the average price of industrial grade lithium carbonate in East China was 313600 yuan / ton, which was 8.51% higher than that in early Zhou (the average price of industrial grade lithium carbonate in East China was 289000 yuan / ton on January 9). On January 13, the average price of battery grade lithium carbonate in East China was 336000 yuan / ton, an increase of 10.53% compared with that in early Zhou (the average price of battery grade lithium carbonate in East China was 304000 yuan / ton on January 9). As of January 13, the comprehensive quotation of industrial grade lithium carbonate market is about 270000 ~ 330000 yuan / ton, and the comprehensive quotation of battery grade lithium carbonate market is about 320000 ~ 366000 yuan / ton.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic acid Gamma PGA

By observing the market changes, the price of lithium carbonate continued to rise sharply this week, the market supply is still low, and the quotations of some traders for industrial carbon and electric carbon are increasing. As the Spring Festival approaches, the lithium salt plant enters the maintenance period, resulting in the continuous reduction of lithium salt output. However, under the background of strong downstream stock demand, lithium salt prices continue to rise. At present, the goods preparation in the downstream market in February and March is not optimistic, and the market order inquiry and procurement demand will continue. After the Spring Festival holiday, the downstream manufacturers may reduce production due to the shortage of lithium carbonate raw materials.

 

The downstream lithium hydroxide Market is strong and upward. Since the beginning of the year, the lithium hydroxide inventory has continued to fall, and the lithium hydroxide has a strong follow-up mood. The cost support is strong, the supply side is relatively stable, the demand side is active, and the market is bullish.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

The price of lithium iron phosphate in the downstream increased, the overall market negotiation focus was high, the inventory was low, the downstream just needed to purchase, and the transaction atmosphere was acceptable. Driven by raw materials, the manufacturing cost of lithium iron phosphate has increased significantly. On the demand side and terminal, battery enterprises prepare goods at the end of the year. The substitution of lithium iron phosphate for lithium ternary manganate in small power is still continuing, and the power demand is up.

 

According to the lithium carbonate analysts of business society, at present, the output of lithium carbonate has declined for nine consecutive weeks, the gap between supply and demand is still widening, and the production scheduling demand for cathode materials remains high. It is expected that the price of lithium carbonate will rise in the short term under the condition that the upstream shipment situation is still tight and the downstream stock mood remains unchanged.

According to the monitoring data of business society, the average market price of silicone DMC in mainstream areas at the beginning of the year was 21833 yuan / ton, and the average ex factory price of silicone DMC at the end of the year was 25800 yuan / ton, with an overall increase of 18.17% in the whole year. The annual maximum amplitude reached 191.05%.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic acid food grade

It can be seen from the k-column trend chart of silicone DMC monitored by the business society that the overall domestic silicone DMC market rose and fell in 2021. In the first half of 2021, January was the month with the largest decline in the whole year, and the organosilicon DMC decreased by 34.5% in that month. In the second half of 2021, organosilicon DMC experienced an increase in the first four months and a decline in the last two months. September was the month with the largest increase in 2021. In that month, organosilicon DMC increased by 68.8%. The annual price of organosilicon DMC reached a high point. On October 8, the average ex factory price of organosilicon DMC broke the 60000 mark. With reference to 63866 yuan / ton, the price reached a record high in recent ten years, It also created the annual maximum amplitude of 191%.

 

In the first quarter, affected by the sharp decline of silicone DMC at the end of 2020, weak market demand and limited transmission, silicone DMC has continued to be weak and entered 2021. In January, the domestic silicone DMC market fluctuated slightly. The ex factory price of silicone DMC in that month was around 21000-21500 yuan / ton, and the overall price range was mainly adjusted. In February, the goods preparation was opened before the Spring Festival, the downstream demand for silicone DMC increased, the market price rose steadily, the atmosphere after the festival continued to warm up, and the upstream and downstream transmission was smooth, with an increase of 12.16% in February. In March, the export of downstream silica gel and other products continued to support the strong rise of silicone DMC market. In March, the price of silicone dmc8 was adjusted, and the high-end offer exceeded 30000 yuan / ton, with an increase of 23.52% in March and an overall increase of 33.89% in the first quarter.

 

In the second quarter, the organosilicon DMC market first fell and then rose. In April and may, after the organosilicon DMC market broke through the 30000 mark, the downstream wait-and-see increased, and the on-site supply and demand game appeared. The organosilicon DMC market fell and the effective support was insufficient, and the factory quotation gradually decreased. At the end of May, the ex factory price of organosilicon DMC fell to 26000-27000 yuan / ton, with a cumulative decline of 8.78% for two consecutive months. In June, supported by the high operation of raw metal silicon and the increase of downstream demand, the market price of silicone DMC opened the upward road again, and the on-site supply was tight. At the end of June, the average ex factory price of silicone DMC returned to the 30000 era, with an increase of 14.62% in June and an overall increase of 4.56% in the second quarter.

 

In the third quarter, organosilicon DMC ushered in a historic moment. The high price exceeded 63000 yuan / ton, with a quarterly increase of 107%

 

In the third quarter, in July, the performance of the domestic silicone DMC market was “calm”, and the overall market was stable. Only a few manufacturers increased the ex factory price of silicone DMC slightly, and the silicone DMC increased by 0.33% in July. In August, the silicone DMC market continued to operate steadily in the first ten days. In the middle and late ten days, driven by the cost given by the sharp rise in the raw material market, the silicone DMC price also began to rise broadly. At the end of August, the ex factory high price of silicone DMC exceeded 37500 yuan / ton, with a monthly increase of 19.02%. In September, when the golden age came, the downstream demand performed well, and the dual control policy on energy consumption was introduced, which led to a sharp rise in the silicone DMC market. There was a shortage of spot goods on the site, and it was difficult to find a single order. At the end of September, the high price of silicone DMC exceeded 63000 yuan / ton, an increase of more than 66% in September and 107% in the second quarter, up 250.37% year-on-year in September 2020.

Negative pressure on silicone DMC to return to the 25000 Era

 

In the fourth quarter, in October, when the national day came back, the domestic silicone DMC market went down at a high level, the downstream start-up decreased negative, and the demand weakened. Large factories in Shandong continuously significantly reduced the ex factory price of silicone DMC. There was a strong bearish mood on the floor, and the raw material support was gradually loosened. At the end of October, the average price of silicone DMC fell to 46666 yuan / ton, a decrease of 26.28% in the month. In November, the market of raw metal silicon continued to be weak, the cost support of silicone DMC was greatly loosened, the downstream continued to be bearish towards silicone DMC, the demand was cautious, the overall performance of the venue was weak in both supply and demand, and the decline of silicone DMC intensified.

Spot price trend of polyester yarn

 

In the first quarter, it showed a sharp rise and a slight decline, with a sharp rise in the quarter. After rising unilaterally from January to February, the high in March fell. The staple fiber futures market saw the highest price of 8578 yuan / ton on February 26. During the Spring Festival, the international oil price fluctuated and rose sharply, driving the prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol to rise sharply. The cost rose sharply, the unit was shut down for maintenance, and the downstream goods were prepared after the festival. The polyester staple fiber increased significantly under the negative inventory. In March, after rising at the beginning of the month, the international oil price fluctuated and fell all the way, the high point fell by nearly 13%, and the prices of PTA and ethylene glycol fell sharply. The cost dropped greatly, the trade middlemen sold goods, the downstream pre festival goods were fully prepared until the procurement was insufficient, the production and sales of polyester staple fiber decreased greatly, and the futures and spot goods were greatly callback.

 

The second quarter showed a narrow shock W-shaped trend, with a slight decline in the quarter. In this quarter, the price of upstream raw materials fluctuated greatly, the downstream weaving and terminal orders decreased under the condition of early order overdraft, the short fiber manufacturers continued to accumulate the warehouse, and the processing fee continued to compress or even lose money. However, as the international oil price fluctuated all the way up in June (almost showing a unilateral upward trend, and the crude oil futures in New York closed up 9.61% for the whole month), PTA, a staple fiber raw material, also rose significantly with the crude oil price. In addition, the continuous increase in the overhaul of staple fiber devices in June led to a decline in production capacity. In addition, the epidemic affected part of the return of orders in Southeast Asia, the production and sales of domestic polyester staple fiber were better than expected, and the staple fiber period Spot prices bottomed out in June and nearly recovered the land lost at the beginning of the quarter. However, the main short fiber raw material ethylene glycol futures closed down slightly in June.

 

The third quarter showed a large shock n-type trend, with a small rise in the quarter. The shock increased in July, decreased in August and rebounded in September. In July, inertia continued the upward trend of shock in the previous month. In August, the price of polyester staple fiber fluctuated and fell due to the pressure of cost, supply and demand. In August, the international crude oil price fluctuated and fell, and the prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol fell. The downstream yarn weaving market demand is flat, the domestic and export markets have declined, mainly buy as you use, and the transaction is light. In September, affected by cost boost and double control production reduction, the price of polyester staple fiber bottomed out and rebounded. In September, the international crude oil price fluctuated higher, the prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol rebounded, the power and production of main producing provinces were limited due to the dual control of energy consumption, the production and shutdown of polyester staple fiber devices were reduced, the maintenance was increased, and the supply was greatly reduced. However, the inventory of downstream yarn weaving Market and traders was low, so there was a demand for replenishment.

 

In the fourth quarter, it showed a trend of sharply rising, falling and stabilizing. The shock rose sharply in October, the high level fell in November, and the bottom stabilized and rose slightly in December. In October, driven by the rise of raw materials first and then the decline of raw materials, the price of polyester staple fiber rose sharply and then fell slightly. In October, after the international crude oil price hit a new high in nearly seven years, the spot prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol rebounded. The dual control of energy consumption and power and production restriction in the main producing provinces this month still had a great impact, and the resumption of production of short fiber factories was slow. In addition, affected by domestic coal power control and cracking down on futures speculation, the industrial chain futures market overreacted, and the short fiber futures fell sharply. The collapse of cost and weak demand in November led to a sharp drop of more than 10% in polyester staple fiber, which was almost unilateral. In November, the international crude oil price fell sharply under the pressure of the release of oil reserves by the United States and the spread of the latest mutant strain “Omicron”. At the end of the month, WTI New York crude oil CFD barely closed below 67, with a monthly decline of nearly 20%. The prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol followed the sharp decline. Both the current and future prices fell by more than 10%. The order performance of downstream yarn and weaving Market is still weak, The polyester plant plans to reduce production by 20% in the last ten days. In November, the domestic power rationing policy was basically cancelled, the units overhauled in the early stage were restarted one after another, the start-up picked up, the tight supply and demand situation was improved, and the storage was slowly accumulated. In addition, xinfengming Zhonglei staple fiber device has been produced in the middle of this month. In December, raw materials stabilized and rebounded, and double section goods preparation led to the bottom recovery of staple fiber prices. In December, the crude oil inventory of the United States decreased, the production of some oil producing countries was interrupted, and the crude oil price fluctuated and rose. The prices of raw materials PTA and ethylene glycol followed the rise. The downstream yarn and weaving Market is close to new year’s day and the Spring Festival holiday, there is a demand for goods storage, and the purchase is increased. The power rationing policy has basically ended, the short fiber supply has improved, and the price has increased steadily.

3、 2022 forecast

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

Business analysts believe that in the short term, the international crude oil price rebounds slowly and the cost side support of polyester staple fiber is strengthened. In some provinces of China, COVID-19 local cases continue to affect the polyester industry chain upstream and downstream start up and production and marketing, nearly Spring Festival, many textile enterprises ahead of time to leave. It is expected that the short-term polyester staple fiber will show a strong shock trend.

 

Overall:

 

In terms of supply, the annual staple fiber supply is expected to rise. However, the supply pressure in the first half of the year was small, the short fiber inventory pressure in the first quarter was small, the new short fiber production capacity was gradually released in the second quarter, and the textile industry also entered the traditional peak season. However, in the second half of the year, with the gradual operation of the new unit, the short fiber supply pressure is large.

 

In terms of demand, there is a lack of obvious positive support, and the expected demand for the whole year may be weak as a whole. It is still unclear whether the tight short fiber supply situation in the whole year can be alleviated.

 

In terms of cost, the cost focus of staple fiber is expected to move down. In 2022, under the expectation of the improvement of the epidemic situation and the tightening of monetary liquidity, the crude oil price may be under pressure, and the annual oil price may rise and fall. The domestic expected supply increment of PTA and ethylene glycol is greater than the demand increment, the supply exceeds the demand, the cumulative reservoir pressure increases, and the crude oil price support is weak. It is expected that the PTA and ethylene glycol prices will fluctuate weakly throughout the year.

 

In the whole year, under the expectation of increased supply pressure, weak demand recovery and downward shift of cost focus, it is expected that the short fiber in 2022 may show an upward trend first and then an downward trend. The price may rise both before and after the Spring Festival and national day. The change of raw material price and the release rhythm of new production capacity may dominate the price trend of staple fiber. In addition, the epidemic situation, demand and macro policy also need to be paid close attention.

DOP prices rose sharply after the festival

 

gamma polyglutamic acid agriculture grade

According to the data monitoring of business society, DOP prices rose sharply after the festival, and the DOP market recovered. As of January 7, the DOP price was 10275 yuan / ton, up 5.12% from 9775 yuan / ton on January 1. After the festival, customers’ demand for replenishment rose, and DOP prices rose sharply.

 

The price of isooctanol rose sharply

 

According to the price monitoring of the business club, the domestic isooctanol price rose sharply after the festival, and the isooctanol rebounded and rose in late December. After the festival, customers replenished actively, stimulating the rise of isooctanol price, and the sharp rise of crude oil price. In addition, the low start of isooctanol stimulated the rise of isooctanol price. The market was cautious about purchasing high-end prices, and the market was still cautious about the future trend of isooctanol. In the future, the support for the rise of isooctanol price is insufficient, the downward pressure of plasticizer DOP remains, and the upward momentum is weakened.

 

The price of phthalic anhydride fluctuated and rose

 

According to the price monitoring of the business community, the price of phthalic anhydride continued the trend of phthalic anhydride in December after the festival, and the phthalic anhydride market fluctuated and rose. Downstream demand was stable, phthalic anhydride prices rose, downward pressure on DOP weakened, and upward momentum increased.

 

PVC market shock rebound

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

According to the price monitoring of the business society, the PVC price fluctuated and rose after the festival, and the PVC market became warmer. As of January 7, the price of PVC was 8340 yuan / ton, up 0.24% from 8320 yuan / ton on January 1. The spring festival atmosphere is getting stronger and the terminal enterprises are reducing their burdens one after another. Affected by the low real estate boom, the orders of terminal building materials are lower than those in previous years, and the rigid demand for PVC raw material procurement is expected to decrease one after another. Considering the preparation before the holiday, there is still a rigid demand; The overall demand for plasticizer is insufficient, and the DOP market is relatively bad.

 

Future expectations

 

DOP data analysts of business society believe that after the festival, the prices of raw materials isooctanol and phthalic anhydride fluctuated, the cost of DOP rose, and the price of DOP rose sharply. In the future, the rising support of raw materials is insufficient, the support of DOP cost is limited, and the downstream demand is insufficient. The rising power of DOP in the future is weakened, and the downward pressure remains. It is expected that the price of DOP will be weak and stabilize.
