Today, China's sulfuric acid market as a whole continues to be sluggish, and prices in some regions have rebounded slightly. As of now, the ex-factory price of 98% of the smelting acid price in Shandong is 1-95 yuan/ton, and the ex-factory price of 98% of ore acid in Sichuan is 430-550 yuan/ton., the factory price of smelting acid is 250-450 yuan/ton; It is difficult to increase the enthusiasm for purchasing in the downstream phosphate fertilizer and titanium dioxide markets, and the market transaction atmosphere is still relatively light. The inventory of acid factories in most regions has increased, and acid factories have a strong willingness to reduce their stocks. Sulfuric acid prices have continued to be lowered mainly, and prices in some regions still have preferential space.
2. Analysis of sulfuric acid price index
According to Tuduo data, the sulfuric acid market price index on January 17 was 236.77, which was basically the same as yesterday.
3. Future outlook forecast
At present, the start-up of China's major acid plants has remained basically stable, and the market supply is sufficient. However, the downstream phosphate fertilizer and titanium dioxide markets are weak, and the supply and demand of the sulfuric acid market are unbalanced. In addition, as the Spring Festival holiday approaches, enterprises have reduced their storage needs. Under the influence of increased inventory pressure and falling market prices, the sulfuric acid market may start to decline in the later period.
