Analysis review   

Let's analyze in detail the reasons for the rise and fall of hydrogen peroxide in September 2020:

In the first half of September, the terminal caprolactam was overhauled by pure benzene manufacturers and the supply was tight and the market rose. In addition, September was the traditional peak season for hydrogen peroxide consumption, and terminal demand has been boosted. The price of hydrogen peroxide has been rising. The price rose more than 7% in the first week, and the increase continued to expand in the second week. As of September 13, the average market price of hydrogen peroxide was 1,096 RMB/ton, an increase of over 18%.

In the second half of the month, due to the excessively rapid increase in the market for hydrogen peroxide in the early stage, the terminal purchasing enthusiasm has declined. As of September 27, the average market price of hydrogen peroxide was 1,090 RMB/ton, which was about 1% lower than that of September 13.

The increase in hydrogen peroxide in 2019 was mainly concentrated in the first half of the year, with prices rising from February to May, and sharp increases in August and October. The performance in 2020 is flat, basically falling, only in June it rose by more than 30%. In July and August, the hydrogen peroxide was falling. In September, the terminal demand improved, and the manufacturers collectively rose. Only then did the hydrogen peroxide rise again.
