Price trend

Analysis review 

The domestic titanium dioxide market remained stable last week. Demand was temporarily weak, with new order inquiries remaining modest and firm orders cautious. Some companies were still prioritizing orders based on existing deliveries. High raw material production costs and market competition in upstream and downstream markets resulted in a relatively stagnant market, with many adopting a wait-and-see approach. As of October 24, domestic rutile titanium dioxide produced by the sulfuric acid process was priced between 13,200 and 14,200 RMB/ton; anatase was around 12,000-12,500 RMB/ton; and chloride-process titanium dioxide was priced between 13,600 and 16,500 RMB/ton. Actual transaction prices were negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
