2、 Market analysis

 

Figure: comparison of price trend of acetone and isopropanol from October to December

 

The domestic isopropanol market picked up slightly this week. The raw material acetone market continued the downturn trend, and the cost suppressed the market mentality. The downstream orders were received cautiously, the buying enthusiasm was limited, and the price picked up slowly. Up to now, most quotations of Shandong isopropanol are about 6700-6800 yuan / ton; Most quotation ranges of Jiangsu isopropanol are about 7050 yuan / ton; Most quotations of isopropanol in Zhejiang are about 7000 yuan / ton. Internationally, on December 14, the U.S. isopropanol closed down, and the European isopropanol market closed basically stable.

 

In terms of raw acetone, the domestic acetone market continued to be depressed. On December 15, the offer in East China market was 5275 yuan / ton and on December 22, it was 5240 yuan / ton, which continued to run at a low level. In terms of the national market, as of the 22nd, the bottom rebound in East China was 50 yuan / ton, the negotiation was 5180-5200 yuan / ton, the offer in Shandong and Yanshan surrounding areas was 5200 yuan / ton, and the offer in South China was 5350 yuan / ton. The business agency expects the short-term acetone market range to be sorted and operated, and the reference price negotiated in East China is 5150-5200 yuan / ton.

In terms of raw propylene, as of the 22nd, the trend of propylene (Shandong) tends to be stable, and the mainstream price of propylene in Shandong is 7400-7450 yuan / ton. Recently, the price of crude oil fluctuates all the way, which has limited boost to the propylene market. The downstream market is dominated by just demand, the procurement atmosphere is not high, the market supply is sufficient, and the demand pull is limited.

 

3、 Future forecast

 

The isopropanol analyst of the chemical branch of business society believes that the domestic isopropanol market has warmed up slightly. The prices of raw materials acetone and propylene are still weak, and the cost support is insufficient. Operators should wait and see. It is expected that in the short term, the isopropanol market will be dominated by stalemate, consolidation and operation.

Negative blow: the price of silicone DMC fell by more than 21% in December

According to the monitoring data of business agency, as of December 22, the average price of organosilicon DMC market quotation in mainstream areas was 24330 yuan / ton. Compared with the price on December 1 (reference price 30800 yuan / ton), the average price was reduced by 6470 yuan / ton, a decrease of 21.1%.

 

gamma polyglutamic acid agriculture grade

It can be seen from the data monitoring chart of the business community that in early December, the domestic silicone DMC market was weak and operated. After the big factories in Shandong continuously reduced the silicone DMC quotation at the end of November, the silicone DMC yard maintained a weak sorting operation at the beginning of this month. On the 3rd, some high-end quotation monomer factories in the early stage reduced the DMC ex factory price by about 200-300 yuan / ton, The mainstream ex factory price of organosilicon DMC is 30100-31000 yuan / ton, and the average price is 30600 yuan / ton. After a few days of temporary stable operation of the market, the cost support for organosilicon DMC continues to loosen due to the reduction of the price of raw metal silicon. In addition, the downstream demand performance is still insufficient, and the transaction of new orders is limited. Under the pressure of both cost and demand, it will start on the 7th, The domestic organosilicon DMC market has opened a road of sharp decline. Shandong big factory took the lead in reducing the ex factory price of organosilicon DMC by 2500 yuan / ton. The ex factory price of organosilicon DMC of this factory fell to 27400 yuan / ton. Then, the air atmosphere was filled in the field, and major monomer factories followed suit to reduce the ex factory price of organic silicon DMC. On the 9th, the price of organosilicon DMC experienced a steep decline, The low-end quotation of organosilicon DMC in the venue fell to 25200 yuan / ton, with a maximum drop of nearly 5000 yuan / ton. However, under the lack of effective support, the silicone DMC market continued to run downward. On the 17th, the average price of domestic silicone DMC fell below the 24000 yuan level, and the average price has fallen to 23900 yuan / ton, a decrease of 22.40% compared with the beginning of the month.

 

After the price of silicone DMC has fallen to a relatively low level, the phased stock of downstream manufacturers has increased, and the atmosphere in the venue has improved. On the 21st, the domestic organosilicon DMC market finally saw a slight recovery. The large factories in Shandong raised the ex factory price of organosilicon DMC to 24500 yuan / ton, and then some other monomer factories also raised the ex factory price of organosilicon DMC to 500 yuan / ton. At present, as of the 22nd, the ex factory price of domestic organosilicon DMC is 24000-25000 yuan / ton, and the average price is 24300 yuan / ton, with an overall decline of 21.1% in the month.

In terms of index, it can be seen from the k-column chart of silicone DMC week that since November, the domestic silicone DMC market has continued to decline at a high level. At present, the silicone DMC commodity index on December 21 was 123.40, up 0.2 points from yesterday, down 62.52% from the highest point of 329.21 in the cycle (2021-10-10), and up 75.28% from the lowest point of 70.40 on July 27, 2016. (Note: cycle refers to the period since September 1, 2011)

 

In terms of upstream metal silicon, in December, the domestic metal silicon 441# market fell sharply. At the beginning of the month, the metal silicon shipment was poor and the market trading atmosphere was light. In the late stage, the metal silicon price showed a slight upward trend, but the downstream still needed some time to digest the price rise. It was difficult for the high price silicon, and the terminal demand of domestic aluminum alloy and silicone plants was weak. In addition, under the influence of the epidemic, Jiangsu and Zhejiang stopped production and started again. However, due to the slowdown of production at the end of the year, the purchase demand for raw materials is low. It is expected that the rise and fall will not be too large in the short term. According to the monitoring data of business society, the reference price of metal silicon was 22090 yuan / ton on December 21, down 21.05% compared with December 1 (27980 yuan / ton).

 

Future trend forecast of silicone DMC Market

 

At present, the market price of silicone DMC is expected to pick up, but the market of downstream silicone products is weak and the support for silicone DMC is limited. The silicone DMC datagrapher of business society believes that in the short term, the silicone DMC market will be adjusted and operated in a narrow range, and more attention needs to be paid to the news changes of supply and demand.

In 2021, China’s domestic PP industry maintained rapid development and the market returned to supply and demand

In recent years, China’s polypropylene production capacity has expanded rapidly, and the industry has developed rapidly. The worldwide public health events in 2021 are still affecting people’s production and life on a large scale, but domestic polypropylene enterprises and employees forge ahead, stabilize supply and ensure construction, and the production supply of various models is relatively abundant throughout the year; All new production lines are tested step by step to produce materials, which contributes to the backbone of the domestic polypropylene market. The continuous practice of accurate domestic epidemic prevention policies has enabled the market to return to the supply and demand market as soon as possible. The growing demand of terminal industry is the main driving force for the rapid growth of domestic polypropylene industry. According to the monitoring of business society, the domestic polypropylene market in 2021 is generally stable. As of December 21, the mainstream offer price of T30S (wire drawing) by domestic manufacturers and traders is about 8150.00 yuan / ton, the price of most brand products has dropped to the price level at the beginning of the year, the output and consumption have increased, and the supply and demand are booming.

 

Cause analysis

gamma polyglutamic acid agriculture grade

 

It is hard to say that the opening market of 2021 is positive for polypropylene. The upstream propylene undertakes the declining market last year, the manufacturer’s inventory pressure is too high, and the shipment situation is cold. At the same time, logistics has also been greatly affected, which has a negative impact on PP market. In February, the inventory accumulation of PetroChina and PetroChina began gradually before the inventory Festival. The inventory position of plastic weaving and BOPP plants was relatively high. The stagflation adjustment in injection molding and wire drawing was also highly related to short-term oversupply. By the middle and late February, although the units of Donghua energy Ningbo phase II project began to be put into operation and the social inventory was high, the original PP price was weak in the strong country. The superimposed cold disaster in the United States caused a reduction in crude oil production and a rise in the price of remote raw oil. At the same time, many chemical enterprises in the disaster stricken areas of the United States stopped production, and the devices were frequently overhauled. Similarly, affected by the earthquake in Japan, the plant was also shut down on a large scale. The industry is worried about the insufficient supply of chemicals, has strengthened its mentality towards the price of bulk commodities, and the global PP generally rose sharply. Domestically, affected by the local spring festival advocacy, the downstream has resumed work rapidly this year, the accumulated demand has increased in advance, the market has warmed up rapidly, and the supply in Northeast China has even been tight to a certain extent. In March, the price of PP was at a high level, affecting the purchase of downstream factories, and the spot price stagnated and fell. In the first quarter, the domestic epidemic prevention situation was stable and good, and PP fiber material and PP melt blown material, one of the important epidemic prevention materials, also fell after rising. Fortunately, the demand at home and abroad is still stable, but there are varying degrees of excess suppliers in the fiber material and melt blown material manufacturing market, and the enterprise profits begin to shrink. ExxonMobil, jumeilai and other high melting fiber products of major international manufacturers have been reduced one after another.

 

In the second quarter, with the end of the rise in the upstream propylene price in late April, the price fell sharply, PP was also unstable, and the spot price fluctuated widely. In the first quarter, the overall average operating rate of domestic polypropylene plants was about 93%, which was at a historical high. The competition in the industry was strengthened, the profits of some PP polymerization enterprises were upside down in the second quarter, and there was a certain degree of contradiction between supply and demand in the PP market. It is worth mentioning that in the second quarter, China’s overseas export orders increased commendably, but the impact on the market was less than expected. The increase of trading resistance was one of the main reasons for the market in the second quarter. By June, the decline of upstream propylene stopped and the support of PP cost side rebounded. The traditional off-season demand affects the decline of demand, and the power restriction policy in some regions affects the industrial load, but the overall supply situation is relatively stable. At the end of the second quarter, the high international oil price supported the products related to the chemical industry chain, and the low inventory of petrochemical plants after going to the warehouse. These two advantages neutralized the negative effects, and the prices of polypropylene wire drawing and fiber products were strong. However, melt blown PP decreased significantly. At the end of June, the average quotation of domestic melt blown material pph-y1500 sample enterprises was about 9733.33 yuan / ton, falling below the 10000 yuan mark. The saturation of the domestic melt blown cloth manufacturing market has not improved for a long time, the departure of production enterprises has become prominent, and the number of units still shipping at the end of the year has decreased significantly. The overseas epidemic prevention market focuses more on the demand for oxygen generator and other equipment products, and the pulling effect on melt blown PP industry is not obvious. It is difficult to meet the demand for melt blown materials, and it is expected that the price market may continue to be weak.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

Polypropylene products entered the market in the second half of the year, the overall shock was weak in the first and middle of the third quarter, and the spot price was adjusted in a narrow range. The load of downstream enterprises is not high, and the off-season characteristic of weak demand follow-up continues until the beginning of the traditional peak season “golden nine and silver ten” of PP industry. In the traditional peak season of 2021, the sharp rise of coal trend is indispensable. The PP market in September was mainly affected by the cost side benefit, of which the coal PP was the most obvious. During the period of plant restart and new capacity start-up, although the overall load of the industry was as high as 90%, the supply was high. However, the key “golden nine” demand driving force is limited. According to the survey of business analysts, the horizontal comparison of centralized replenishment intensity in PP market in September this year was weaker than that in previous years. During this period, the admission of environmental protection policies regulated the operating rate of upstream and downstream enterprises of PP, the feedback of downstream enterprises on high price sources was poor, and the shipment fluency of merchants was general, which formed resistance to the rise of spot price. In the third quarter, the rise of PP was mainly driven by the rise of propylene and coal on the cost side. After long-term adjustment, the price of PP fiber materials and melt blown materials, which rose due to worldwide health events, finally returned to rationality in 2021.

 

In October, the industry went up and down sharply. In terms of energy, the national development and Reform Commission strengthened the investigation and punishment of capital malicious speculation of coal, and the coal price stagnated and corrected. Coupled with the inflow of low-cost sources of propylene after the festival, the price began to callback further. There are many adjustment and reduction in the upstream, and the PP cost end support collapses. Local environmental protection policies continue to affect the industry and its downstream operating rate. The downstream demand is lower than that in the same period of previous years, dragging down the spot price of PP. Although the purchase follow-up of end users was not timely, the automobile and other industries just needed to be stable, raised a certain amount of demand, reduced the supply of low-cost goods in the field, and stabilized after the merchant reported the decline. The bottom building energy of downstream industries expresses the fall resistance property of PP. In terms of meltblown materials, the epidemic situation rebounded briefly in a small range in October and stabilized after rising. The supply pattern of meltblown materials in the field is still abundant, and the pulling effect of the spot market is seriously diluted. At present, the domestic polypropylene market is in a weak operation, repaired after the sharp fall of international oil price, and the propylene market is in sufficient supply to maintain a volatile downward trend. PP supply remained stable, and the on-site maintenance production line decreased. The downstream operating rate is still average, and businesses stabilized after falling.

 

Near the new year, some new production lines have landed around New Year’s day. 2022 and even 2023 are still the years of rapid development of China’s polypropylene industry. Domestic PP enterprises not only have made great progress in output, but also pay attention to the research and development of new products. New PP products for various purposes emerge one after another. If all recent projects start up and produce materials one after another, China’s PP production capacity will increase by about 8.7 million tons / year, and the total production capacity is expected to reach about 37.7 million tons / year. In the pattern of large-scale increase in supply, polypropylene prices can still return to the same period last year. In addition to the impact of global macro inflation, the development of terminal enterprises is an important new force supporting China’s PP industry chain.

Gamma Polyglutamic acid 30%

Data monitoring shows that in the first and middle of December, the market of polyacrylamide (CPAM, cation, molecular weight of 12 million, 10-30 ionic degree) in China was flat after a slight shock, that is, the mainstream market price on the 1st was about 17987.5 yuan / ton, and the mainstream market price on the 20th was about 17700 yuan / ton, down 1.6%. Recently, the market demand is weak, the transaction is general, and the market is slightly weak.

 

International crude oil fundamentals play a long and short game. The Omicron strain still hinders economic recovery. Recently, IEA’s expectation of excess crude oil supply continues to pressurize the oil price, but OPEC + maintains a moderate increase in production policy, tight supply forms a strong support for the oil market, and the crude oil price may rise slightly; Despite the impact of environmental protection and dual control policies in winter, limited production and shutdown in many places, and the commencement of basic chemicals affect the market supply, due to the low heat of downstream demand, the ex factory price of water treatment products has been adjusted slightly. Since December, the polyacrylamide market has experienced a slight decrease, but the overall adjustment range is not very large.

 

Raw material acrylonitrile, the market of raw material acrylonitrile fluctuated and decreased by about 300 yuan / ton. At present, the mainstream quotation in the market is 15100 yuan / ton. The market expects that acrylonitrile will weaken in the near future, and there is no risk of sharp decline. So far this month, the supply has been gradually released, the domestic trade ships in East China port will arrive, the new production capacity is expected, and the pessimistic expectation is aggravated. The time for the centralized shutdown and restart of acrylamide plants in Ningbo is not clear, the production is limited by environmental protection in the North, the industrial operating rate is slightly high, at the same time, the emergency response of heavy pollution natural gas, and the shutdown of mining and downstream water treatment demand enterprises. The buyer should follow up carefully, The circulation of goods slowed down, and the market price was obviously depressed.

 

Gamma Polyglutamic Acid

As shown in the figure above, the market price of raw acrylic acid fell in the first and middle of December. The average price of acrylic acid in East China on the 1st was 17000 yuan / ton, and the average market price on the 20th was 13100 yuan / ton, down 22.94%. last week (December 13-december 17) the quotations of acrylic acid enterprises in East China were mixed, and the overall price rose slightly. Recently, the raw material propylene market was consolidated and operated, the cost support was limited, the spot supply in the early market was improved, the demand side was not followed up, the inquiry and transaction performance were general, the price of acrylic acid fell, the market negotiation gradually bottomed out, the overseas mainstream devices were force majeure, and the export inquiry turned better , the prices of some enterprises increased. At present, the price of raw material propylene is mainly stable, the cost support is general, and the market inquiry atmosphere is good. It is expected that in the short term, the acrylic acid market may be stable, medium and strong, and more attention should be paid to the guidance of market news.

 

LNG is used in the production process. According to the monitoring data of business agency, the price of domestic liquefied natural gas fluctuated all the way in the first and middle of December: the average price of domestic liquefied natural gas on the 1st was 6773.33 yuan / ton, and the average price of domestic liquefied natural gas on the 20th was 4440 yuan / ton, a sharp drop of 34.45%, and the focus shifted down sharply. The LNG analyst of business society believes that at present, there is still no obvious improvement in demand, the market continues to be sluggish in the peak season, and there is a certain pressure on shipment in some regions or affected by public health events. It is expected that domestic LNG is still expected to decline in the short term.

 

As for the future market, bulk commodities are weak, raw material prices are weak, market support is unstable, downstream demand is general, and there is no risk of significant weakening of polyacrylamide trend,; Although the environmental protection and dual control policies in many cities in winter led to manufacturers’ production restriction and shutdown, the weak demand led to a weak market. In the current environment, polyacrylamide market is expected to fluctuate slightly in the short term.

It can be seen from the data monitoring chart of the business community that in the early December stage, the domestic propylene glycol market as a whole operated downward, the raw material propylene oxide operated steadily and the cost support was stable, but the downstream demand support of propylene glycol was insufficient, the downstream wait-and-see atmosphere was strong, the raw materials in the previous period were mainly digested, the rigid demand in the venue continued to weaken, and the overall new order transaction was weak. Since the beginning of the month, The offer price of propylene glycol factory was gradually reduced. Until December 9, the transaction focus of domestic propylene glycol fell below 17000 yuan / ton. According to the monitoring data of business society, the average price was 16800 yuan / ton, with a decrease of 6.32% in early December.

 

After several days of continuous decline of propylene glycol, on December 10, the market in the propylene glycol plant finally saw a slight recovery, and the quoted price of propylene glycol plant stopped falling and rebounded. The recovery of the market mainly came from the support of the supply side. The propylene glycol plant in Zhejiang was temporarily parked, the supply in the plant decreased, the market inquiry atmosphere warmed up, new orders were added downstream, the storage pressure of propylene glycol was released, and the quotations of some factories began to adjust upward, The increase range was 100-300 yuan / ton. This week, the downstream just needed replenishment, the propylene glycol factory shipped actively, and the inventory pressure was reduced. On the 13th and 14th of the week, the propylene glycol factory quotation continued to increase, with the increase range of about 200-500 yuan / ton. As of December 14, the domestic propylene glycol factory price was 17400-18000 yuan / ton, and the average price was 17616 yuan / ton, compared with the 9th, The price callback was 816 yuan / ton, an increase of 4.86% on the 5th.

In terms of upstream propylene oxide, the market price of propylene oxide fell on December 13, 2.05% lower than that on Friday, 2.05% lower than that at the beginning of the month and 12.27% lower than that on November 13. Recently, the price of raw propylene is weak, the cost support is general, the factory inventory increases slowly, the downstream procurement enthusiasm is general, the bearish mood is strong, the terminal is mainly waiting and waiting, and the focus of market negotiation is downward. It is expected that the propylene oxide market will be dominated by weak operation in the short term.

 

Future trend analysis

 

At present, the trading atmosphere in the propylene glycol field is good. The propylene glycol factory has received orders smoothly in the past two days, and the downstream demand side support is OK. Therefore, the propylene glycol datagrapher of the business society believes that the propylene glycol market may continue to rise slightly in the short term, and more attention needs to be paid to the news changes on the supply and demand side.

Upstream: international crude oil prices rebounded this week. At the beginning of this week, South Africa reported that the symptoms of local Omicron infection cases were mild. After that, the market was worried about undermining oil demand, and oil prices ushered in a retaliatory rebound. In addition, the Iranian nuclear negotiations are at an impasse, the possibility of Iranian oil returning to the market is reduced, and crude oil is also supported to a certain extent. Second, the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported on Wednesday that US crude oil inventories fell slightly last week, which benefited the oil market. OPEC +, an oil producing country, also acts as a ballast. OPEC + decided to continue to release 400000 barrels / day of production capacity as planned at the ministerial meeting on December 2, reflecting the confidence of the alliance led by Saudi Arabia and Russia in the future demand prospects. In addition, the organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC +) control production, it is unlikely that Iranian oil will return to the international market in the near future, the oil market remains in a tight balance, and the oil price is supported.

Petroleum coke analysts of business society believe that: Recently, the local refining manufacturers have issued goods stably, and the prices rise and fall with each other. At present, the downstream has purchased successively, and the inventory in the local refining market has decreased. Affected by the recent heating season and the Winter Olympic Games, the downstream carbon enterprises are still facing the problems of production reduction and production restriction, and the downstream demand is general. It is expected that the price of Petroleum Coke will be sorted out in the near future.
