This week, the market of bisphenol A almost entered the surge mode, from the offer of 21800 yuan / ton at the beginning of the week to more than 25000 yuan / ton at present, with a cumulative increase of 14% this week. The sharp increase was mainly due to the stimulation of on-site factory maintenance and parking news, the high price at the weekend, the market transaction situation is not optimistic, and the supply of goods in the hands of cargo holders is relatively small. I heard that the 120000 T / a bisphenol a unit of Sinopec Mitsui shut down at night due to equipment failure, and it is expected to recover next Tuesday; The BPA plant of Changchun chemical is expected to be shut down in September for about 45 days. Parking news boosted the market. Some of the dealers actively sold early this week, while others were reluctant to sell. However, the supply of goods in hand was limited. However, the enthusiasm of downstream purchasing declined on Friday. Although the market rose sharply, the transaction was not good.

From the perspective of raw material side, the phenol market was stable this week, and the market negotiation was in a stalemate. The negotiation was between 9400-9550 yuan / ton. The overall change in the near future was not big. The port inventory was relatively stable, the pressure on the supply side was not big, and the downstream delivery mood was not good. The carrier expected that it would be more difficult to push up the market, the overall atmosphere was tepid, and it was difficult to make large-scale delivery. On the other hand, the acetone market as a whole is in a weak position. The mainstream negotiation range is 5000-5100 yuan / ton. The market atmosphere is general. Most of the suppliers make offers with them. The current terminal market is not good. The market needs to wait for the downstream market to be further clarified.

The downstream liquid epoxy resin market rose significantly, the mainstream negotiation price of liquid epoxy resin exceeded 30000 yuan / ton, and the solid epoxy resin market was 27000 yuan / ton. The epoxy resin market was supported by a large amount of raw materials and a high price, and the epoxy resin market rose sharply due to cost pressure.

According to the business community, as soon as the news of the shutdown of Sinopec’s Mitsui plant came out under the tight supply today, the price of some closed offers was further pushed up. The current market speculation atmosphere is strong, and the market rose rapidly this week. However, due to the tight supply in the current market and little pressure from the shippers, the business community expects the bisphenol a market to maintain a high level or continue to rise next week.
