Market outlook

The Spring Festival is coming soon in 2023, and domestic logistics and transportation are gradually stopped. The information on the dimethyl carbonate market is relatively calm. The dimethyl carbonate statistician of SunSirs believes that in the short term, the domestic dimethyl carbonate market is mostly stable, with narrow range adjustment and operation. The specific trend needs to pay more attention to the changes in the information on the supply and demand side.
