Market analysis of glacial acetic acid, isopropanol, hydrogen peroxide, dichloromethane, etc.

Glacial acetic acid
The supply of acetic acid is at a normal level, the inventory pressure of manufacturers is not obvious, and the intention of stocking up other than just-needed goods in the downstream is not strong. It is expected that the glacial acetic acid market will be dominated today.

Isopropanol
The price of isopropanol fluctuated up. At present, the export situation of isopropanol orders is good. Domestic transactions are in good shape. The domestic isopropanol market is relatively active, the price of upstream acetone market has risen, and cost support has driven the market price of isopropanol to rise. Downstream inquiries are relatively active, and purchases are made on demand. The raw material has strong support for isopropanol. It is expected that isopropanol will run steadily and well in the short term.

Hydrogen peroxide
Beginning in July, terminal demand picked up, and the supply of hydrogen peroxide from manufacturers became tighter. The price of hydrogen peroxide rose sharply, up 53.19% from the beginning of July. The main reason is that the shutdown of major factories has not yet started, the supply of hydrogen peroxide in the market is tight, the demand for terminal purchases is increasing, and the market transactions are relatively fast. Manufacturers have raised the ex-factory price of hydrogen peroxide one after another. Towards the end of the month, the market for hydrogen peroxide continued to stabilize, running at a high level, and the market transactions were acceptable.
The hydrogen peroxide market continued to be high in July, and the market acceptance was average. It is expected that in August, the hydrogen peroxide market may drop.

Dichloromethane
The price of dichloromethane first rose and then fell. As of July 25, the price of dichloromethane bulk water in Shandong was flat compared with the middle of the month. The price of raw material methanol dropped slightly, and the center of gravity of the cost of dichloromethane dropped slightly. Jiuhong’s new methane chloride plant is planned to be put into operation in the near future. The pressure on the supply side is expected to increase slightly.

Trichloromethane (Chloroform)
Trichloromethane (Chloroform) prices rose first and then stabilized. As of July 26, the price of trichloromethane (Chloroform) bulk water in Shandong has risen by 13.89%. Overall, the early rise was stable in the later period. The price of raw material methanol fell slightly, and the cost support of chloroform weakened slightly. In the off-season, some equipment maintenance enterprises in the downstream started low-level and made more inquiries on demand, and the transaction in the trichloromethane (Chloroform) market was flat; the recent start-up of methane chloride equipment fell slightly, and the inventory of enterprises was low, which pushed up the price of chloroform in the early stage; The pressure is expected to rise slightly, suppressing the market for trichloromethane (Chloroform).
