The article reports that the spot price of phenol from Zhongsha Tianjin Petrochemical has increased by 50 yuan per ton to 6,600 yuan per ton, indicating tight market supply or improved demand. Although the unit is operating normally, the products are mainly used internally with limited external sales, which may restrict market supply and support price increases.
