Butadiene rubber prices in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region continued to rise on August 19. Escalating conflict risks in the Middle East have kept crude oil prices high, providing significant cost support for butadiene rubber and prompting spot market traders to raise their offers slightly. Currently, mainstream quotes for butadiene rubber from Daqing, Sichuan, and Dushanzi range from 14,750 to 14,950 RMB/tonne.

Driven by high crude oil prices resulting from intensified Middle East tensions, butadiene rubber has received strong cost-side support. Spot traders in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region have slightly increased their offers, with the current mainstream price range at 14,750–14,950 RMB/tonne; spot prices are trending strongly in the short term, representing a moderately positive market signal.

This report does not cover factors such as supply, demand, or costs related to chloroform; therefore, the market outlook remains neutral in that regard.
