Due to the long-term low price of acetic acid, the downstream market and traders have better bargain-hunting and replenishment, and the company's inventory has declined. Therefore, the company's quotation has gradually stabilized. At present, the industry has a strong wait-and-see attitude and buying is more cautious.

Some manufacturers gave profits to sales, currently around 2,146 RMB/ton; Domestic acetate, vinyl acetate and acetic anhydride industries are gradually stable, but the industry's trading volume is limited, and downstream demand continues to be soft.

Although the overall inventory of the domestic acetic acid market has declined recently and Nanjing Yangzi has been overhauled, the operating rate is still at a high level. In addition, the demand end of the downstream market has no obvious signs of improvement, and it is expected that the domestic acetic acid market will continue to operate stably in a short period of time.
