Second, the market analysis

Products: In the first ten days, the price of cryolite increased under the support of raw material hydrofluoric acid; in the latter half of the year, the price of hydrofluoric acid showed a downward trend, without the support of raw materials, the downstream demand was weak, the production and sales of cryolite market were not strong, and the price was basically no adjustment. .

Industry chain: upstream hydrofluoric acid: domestic hydrofluoric acid operating rate is about 70%, the company reflects that the current supply of hydrofluoric acid spot supply is sufficient, and the recent market has weakened, some manufacturers’ prices have dropped slightly. Up to now, the mainstream of hydrofluoric acid in the southern region is 10,500-11,000 yuan/ton, and the price of hydrofluoric acid in the northern market is 11,000-11,500 yuan/ton. The domestic market price of hydrofluoric acid is slightly lower, the supply of spot goods is normal, and the recent downstream receiving market is generally low. The purchase of hydrogen fluoride market has weakened slightly, and the price of hydrofluoric acid has declined slightly. Downstream electrolytic aluminum: The price of electrolytic aluminum rose weakly this month. At the beginning of the month, the price remained at 13,990 yuan/ton, and at the end of the month, it was 14,182, and the price was raised by 1.38%.

Third, the market outlook

The analyst of the cryolite industry of the Chemical Industry Chemicals Branch believes that the price of upstream raw material hydrofluoric acid continues to decrease, and the downstream demand for cryolite does not improve. It is expected that the price of cryolite will be lowered next month.
