The price of natural rubber fluctuated at a low level, mainly negative for SBR. According to the monitoring of business news agency, as of June 4, the domestic price of natural rubber was 12,800 RMB/ ton.

SunSirs analysts believe that although the current cost side has some support, there are many negative factors for SBR. On one hand, the lower price of natural rubber and the restart of SBR plants in Yangzi and Fushun have a negative impact on SBR. On the other hand, the operating rate of downstream tire enterprises in Shandong has declined. It is expected that China SBR will continue to be weak in the future.
