Analysis review   

Product: 

Affected by the parking of enterprises, the spot supply of chloroform in Shandong is tight. Among them, Shandong Jinling has a 440,000 tons / year plant, Dongying Jinmao has a 40,000 tons / year plant that is still parked, and Luxi Chemical has a 400,000 tons / year plant. Shandong Dongyue's 280,000 tons / year device operates at half load, but the downstream market has just been insufficient, coupled with the logistics and transportation just restored, and companies have been steadily quoting. At present, the price in Shandong is around 2,000 RMB/ton, and the price in Jiangxi Lee & Man is about 2,150 RMB/ton. The quotation in Jiangsu area is about 2,800 RMB/ton.

Industrial Chain:

On the upstream side, with the liberalization of domestic logistics and transportation, the domestic methanol market ’s trading atmosphere has changed, with significant volume of transactions, currently around 2,022 RMB/ton; the overall supply and demand of the liquid chlorine market is weak, and the company ’s mentality is strong but the industry ’s trading is poor It is currently around 100-300 RMB/ton. On the downstream side, the domestic refrigerant market is still operating at a low level, and trading in the industry is relatively weak. The pharmaceutical and agricultural market and the solvent industry are not operating at a high level, and the demand is just flat. The support to the price of chloroform is insufficient.

Market outlook

SunSirs analysts of methane chloride data believe that although chloroform producers in Shandong currently stop more to reduce their load, downstream market demand is still weak. Enterprise shipments depend on inventory, insufficient support for chloroform prices, and stable operation is expected in a short period of time.
