Subsequently, with the support of the high level of raw material propylene oxide and the improvement of export environment, on the 12th and 13th, the market of dimethyl carbonate finally ushered in a warmer operation, the pressure of factory inventory supply was relieved, and the reported price was gradually strengthened and increased.

Recently, the market of raw material propylene has fallen, the price of raw material liquid chlorine has fallen after rising, the cost support has weakened, the supply side is mainly stable, and the inventory has accumulated slightly and slowly. However, the multi inventory pressure of manufacturers is controllable, which supports the market mentality. The downstream demand is cold, the procurement enthusiasm is weakened, and the market is in a stalemate. On the 25th, the mainstream quotation of propylene oxide Market in Shandong is around 10800-10900 yuan / ton.
