The pure MDI market for raw materials rose steadily, and the overall wait-and-see atmosphere in the market was strong. 760% of the industry started, traders were reluctant to sell at low prices, and the mainstream quotation in the market increased steadily. At present, the mainstream reference in the local market is 21000-21200 yuan / ton telegraphic transfer barrel self delivery. PTMEG operates on price, and the BDO on the cost side continues to be warm and well supported. In terms of price, mainstream factories with 1800 molecular weight sources offer around 46000-49000 yuan / ton, and the actual single negotiation refers to 45000-48000 yuan / ton. The industry started 71000 tons, and the start-up increased slightly. Among them, the short-term shutdown of 46000 ton unit of Shaanxi chemical industry has been restarted, 46000 ton unit of Lanshan Tunhe in Xinjiang has been restarted, 92000 ton unit of Sinopec Great Wall energy chemical industry has been overhauled, and 60000 ton unit of Cathay Xinhua in Xinjiang has been overhauled in turn.

Before the end of the month, due to the adjustment of production before the end of the printing and dyeing factory in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, the order of some large round machine factories was delayed, so the rate of start-up was reduced to 2-3. The pressure on factory finished product inventory remains unabated. The large amount of raw material preparation is around 40 days, and most factories prepare raw materials around 8-11 days, resulting in low enthusiasm for raw material procurement. In the warp knitting industry, during the Mid Autumn Festival holiday in Haining, most local warp knitting factories shut down for 1-2 days, and the load decreased from 70% before the festival to less than 50% during the holiday.

According to the analysts of business society, in September, the spandex market operated weakly, the supply of goods remained stable, and the cost side support was ok, but the downstream demand was not followed up carefully, and the overall market wait-and-see atmosphere was strong. It is expected that the demand pressure is expected to be relieved with the release of winter orders and the advent of double “11″ and Christmas season. In the short term, the spandex market will remain weak, If the demand side improves in the later stage, the market may pick up.
