Market analysis:

Dynamic device: Dongying Yimei month device in normal operation, daily output of more than and 300 tons; Shandong Hongxin month equipment normal operation; normal Qilu plasticizer plant, Nissan 700 tons; the normal operation of Zhejiang Weboo device; no parking device industry high Teruo production plan.

December: industry chain upstream raw material market is octanol high concussion, December propylene ferocious rally, successfully pulled to 8000 yuan / ton level, octanol occasion hike, although the increase is only 500 yuan, but the DOP long-term at a loss situation, the cost is higher, to avoid loss of space amplification, manufacturers is also follow up. But the rise in time and space is limited, a propylene drop, resulting octanol have lowered the long-term decline in the state, phthalic anhydride, and the decline is enlarged, the upstream conduction decreased constantly. On the other hand, the demand side is weak, near the end of the year, demand a large decline, coupled with environmental protection does not collide, downstream of the PVC soft products production is not prosperous situation worsened, the demand for DOP but just, almost stagnant, facing the lack of interest spot situation, mentality pressure intensified. Post market bearish on manufacturers and holding the goods for shipment and shipment actively, reduce resistance, generally low, leading to market decline amplification.

Industry: December plasticizer industry chain, the overall market high consolidation, the market is expected in January downward shock.

Market forecast:

In December, the domestic DOP market is still weak trend, with the focus on the phenomenon of low. The terminal demand is difficult to improve, inquiry and purchase the phenomenon of poor, the manufacturers take the goods in high resistance situation, mentality continued pressure, coupled with raw material manufacturers and octanol down, but also increased the negative expectation. Market outlook, demand outlook is subject to change, and manufacturers and shippers will ship based, but based on the demand is difficult to improve, there are low risk, however, manufacturers still in the vicinity of the cost line, is expected to more than yindie.
