Market analysis
Upstream propylene market trends have stabilized following a period of fluctuation, and the cost of isobutyraldehyde has similarly steadied. Yantai Wanhua has maintained its neopentyl glycol (NPG) quotation at 9,950–10,100 RMB/ton, holding prices steady for the time being; conversely, Luxi Chemical has lowered its NPG quotation to 8,500 RMB/ton. Downstream NPG prices have trended downward amidst market volatility, leading to diminished purchasing enthusiasm among downstream buyers. Consequently, operating rates for isobutyraldehyde production have declined, resulting in a reduction in supply. While production costs have decreased and downstream market conditions remained temporarily stable, overall upward support for isobutyraldehyde prices weakened, and downward pressure persisted.
