There was a trend of recovery in the rubber and plastic industry, but the quality of the gold September was insufficient. In September, the rubber and plastic index fell, and the rubber and plastic industry market declined. The demand for plasticizers did not recover as expected.

Market outlook

According to the data analyst of SunSirs' plasticizer products, in terms of cost, due to the impact of the decline in crude oil prices, the prices of 2-EH and PA fell in September, and the cost of plasticizer DOP decreased; In terms of demand, the rubber and plastic industry index declined in September, and the demand for plasticizers did not recover as expected.
