According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyishe, as of December 28th, the average price quoted by epoxy chloropropane enterprises was 8150.00 yuan/ton, an increase of 0.93% compared to the price on December 1st.

The market for epichlorohydrin remained stable with little movement in December. In the first half of the year, the raw material propylene market was operating weakly, and glycerol prices were weakly adjusted. Cost support was weak, and some factories in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, and other regions shut down for maintenance. The market spot supply was tight, and some enterprises increased their prices. However, the main downstream epoxy resin transactions were limited, and the demand side support was weak. Enterprise shipments were under pressure, and the market atmosphere was stagnant. The cost impact in the mid to late period is limited, with factory delivery contracts and core customers being the main focus. There is no inventory pressure on the supply side, but downstream demand replenishment intentions are not strong, and low follow-up is mainly chosen according to demand, resulting in a light market atmosphere.

Upstream propylene, according to the commodity market analysis system of Business Society, the reference price of propylene on December 27th was 6965.75, a decrease of 1.97% compared to December 1st (7105.75), and the impact of cost on the epichlorohydrin market is limited.

According to the commodity market analysis system of Business Society, the reference price of epoxy resin on December 27th was 13300.00, an increase of 0.25% compared to December 1st (13266.67), which lacks support for the epoxy chloropropane market.

According to analysts from Business Society, there is still support on the supply side, but the demand side is average. Downstream small orders mainly follow up on demand, and the market trading atmosphere is light. It is expected that the short-term market for epichlorohydrin may remain stable, and more attention should be paid to market news guidance.
