Acrylic Emulsion Market Weekly Outlook

I. Key Points

Nov 6: The market focused on the risk of renewed conflict between the U.S. and Iran, while mediators continued to push for peace talks. International crude oil prices rose slightly. NYMEX WTI December futures closed at $90.83/bbl, up $0.31 (+0.34%); ICE Brent January futures closed at $98.32/bbl, up $0.03 (+0.03%). China INE crude oil futures (January 2027 contract) rose by 1.2 yuan to 631.8 yuan/bbl in the day session and increased by 2.1 yuan to 633.9 yuan/bbl in the night session.
Last week, the domestic MMA market operated weakly. Demand was lackluster; sellers lowered their offers, downstream sentiment remained neutral with buyers adopting a "buy-as-needed" approach and limited purchasing volumes. Fundamentals showed no significant improvement, and the market is expected to remain weak today.
Last week, the domestic butyl acrylate market fluctuated downward after consolidating at high levels. Propylene prices fell after rising, while upstream raw materials n-butanol and acrylic acid showed mixed movements. However, cost pressure on butyl acrylate remained high. Holders adjusted offers according to market trends, downstream sentiment was neutral, and active inquiries from end-users were scarce. N-butanol is expected to trend weakly today, reducing cost support. Consequently, the butyl acrylate market is likely to continue its weak trajectory, with downstream users maintaining a cautious wait-and-see attitude. Future attention should be paid to market supply conditions and fluctuations in raw material prices.

III. Market Outlook

Last week, butyl acrylate, MMA, and styrene all exhibited downward trends, alleviating some cost-side pressure. Acrylic emulsion producers maintained stable pricing in their offers, while downstream procurement was primarily driven by rigid demand, keeping the market trading center stable. In the short term, uncertainties regarding Middle Eastern geopolitical risks persist, and the crude oil market continues to fluctuate at high levels. Raw material prices may continue to consolidate within ranges. Acrylic emulsion factories are likely to adjust offers flexibly for sales, negotiating actual orders individually, while end-users purchase based on need. The acrylic emulsion market is expected to remain stable. Future developments in butyl acrylate, MMA, styrene raw materials, and downstream markets should be closely monitored.
