The price of raw material semi-coke is weak, the cost support of calcium carbide is weakened, the downstream PVC market fluctuates in a narrow range, the downstream demand is general, and the driving force for calcium carbide to rise is insufficient. In mid-September, the price of calcium carbide in the northwest region may fluctuate downward within a narrow range.
