According to the data of business agency, the domestic maleic anhydride market price rebounded after falling this week. As of August 22, the average market price of n-butane oxidation maleic anhydride remained at 7320.00 yuan / ton, an increase of 0.55% over the price of 7280.00 yuan / ton on August 15, and a decrease of 6.63% over the same period of last month.

This week, the domestic benzoic maleic anhydride market was shut down. In the near future, the downstream unsaturated resin resin market started at a low level, and the demand was mainly rigid. As of December 22, the solid anhydride in Shandong was about 7000 yuan / ton, that in Jiangsu was about 7000 yuan / ton, that in Shanxi was about 9500 yuan / ton, that in Hebei was about 8000 yuan / ton, and that in South China was about 7500 yuan / ton.

On the upstream side, the average price of pure benzene on August 12 was 8042 yuan / ton, and the average price of pure benzene on August 19 was 7542 yuan / ton, down 6.22% from last week. Pure benzene continued to fall, and downstream purchasing sentiment improved. However, most products are still at a loss. It is difficult to greatly increase the demand for pure benzene in the short term, and the market is waiting for the downstream to make up for the bargain. This week, the price of hydrogenated benzene in North China fell. On August 22, it was 7700.00 yuan / ton, and on August 15, it was 8150.00 yuan / ton, down 5.52%. In terms of n-butane, as of August 22, Shandong’s price was 5530 yuan / ton.

According to the maleic anhydride product analyst of business club, the benzene oxidation process in the domestic maleic anhydride market is in serious deficit at present, the factory has been shut down for maintenance, and the market circulation is less. The recent rise in the n-butane oxidation process is mainly due to the concentrated delivery of goods by downstream and merchants, and the supply of goods is relatively tight. It is expected that the maleic anhydride market will rise in the near future.
