Downstream will follow up on replenishment after the holiday, with acrylic acid procurement mainly focused on rigid demand, and the performance on the demand side was average.
Market outlook
In recent times, there had been no pressure on the supply side to support the price increase of acrylic acid. Looking ahead, the atmosphere in the raw material acrylic acid market was still good, with short-term or strong operation, which may continue to support the acrylic acid market. The supply side support may still exist in the short term, and the demand side mentality is cautious. Market transactions may continue to be mainly in demand, and it is expected that the acrylic acid market will digest the increase in the short term.
