Market situation of glacial acetic acid, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, soda ash and caustic soda flakes on the 30th

Glacial Acetic Acid
Yesterday, the Glacial Acetic Acid market price remained relatively stable, with varying pressures on factory shipments. Attention should be paid to recent changes in market sentiment and maintenance schedules. Longzhong Information predicts thatglacial acetic acid prices may remain stable in the short term.

Ethyl Acetate
Yesterday, the ethyl acetate market price was stable with some local increases. The current raw material acetic acid market price is relatively firm, with costs continuing to support a bottoming-out sentiment. However, fundamentals are currently not providing substantial drivers to the market. Supply varies across regions, and downstream buyers are mainly purchasing for immediate needs. Longzhong predicts that the ethyl acetate market price will continue to adjust within a narrow range today.

Butyl Acetate
Yesterday, the butyl acetate market price weakened. The raw material n-butanol market price fell sharply, with costs continuing to affect market sentiment. Ample market supply has led downstream buyers to adopt a wait-and-see approach, putting pressure on factory shipments, although short-term demand remains. Longzhong predicts that the butyl acetate market price may continue to decline today.

soda ash
Yesterday, the domestic soda ash market trended towards stability, with prices adjusting within a narrow range and hovering at the bottom. Some companies resumed maintenance or operations, resulting in minimal overall supply changes. Downstream demand was moderate, with transactions mainly based on immediate needs and restocking expected at the end of the month.

caustic soda flakes

Yesterday, some domestic manufacturers saw a slight decline in weekly new order prices. Actual transaction prices for most products were lower than manufacturer quotes, and market participants remained relatively inactive. It is expected that new order prices from manufacturers in major producing areas will be released gradually today. Given the current market trading conditions, a slight decline in new order prices is highly likely, although the impact of rising liquid caustic soda prices in major producing areas will limit the extent of the price drop.
