Butadiene price trend chart of business society in April 2022:

 

At the beginning of the month, the domestic butadiene market finished at a high level and the rise slowed down. The operating rate of the industry continues to decline, the logistics and transportation are limited, and the performance of spot resources in the market is tight, which has a certain support for the market. At the same time, the high price of butadiene put pressure on downstream profits, the operating rate of downstream industries decreased, and the demand side of butadiene market gradually weakened, which also suppressed the market.

 

In the first ten days of the month, the domestic butadiene market fell backwards. With the restart of Nanjing Chengzhi and Inner Mongolia Jiutai units, the market available spot supply increased. In addition, the operating rate of some downstream industries continued to decline, the market supply and demand gradually weakened, the transaction of some suppliers was not smooth, and the market fell slightly.

 

According to the mid month inquiry, the domestic butadiene market fell deeply, the market supply increased significantly, while the operating rate of downstream industries decreased, the contradiction between supply and demand fundamentals appeared, dragging the market down.

 

In late June, the domestic butadiene market rebounded slightly and rose. There was no significant increase in the market supply during the week, and the amount of cash in circulation was slightly tight. In addition, there was pre holiday stock demand in some downstream, which was supported to a certain extent.

 

At the end of the month, the domestic butadiene market fluctuated slightly. Due to the failure to fulfill the expectation of early device maintenance, the market fell under the influence of mentality. However, the downstream rigid demand still has some inquiry follow-up. In addition, the high cost of goods in East China affects the merchants to be reluctant to sell at low prices. With the price increase of some export goods in Shandong, the market fluctuated slightly after stopping the decline.
