January 26th News: On January 26th, the commissioning plan for the 30,000-ton/year MIBK unit at Yantai Wanhua Chemical has been postponed, with an expected start-up in March 2026. Updates on the specific unit status will continue to be monitored. Chempricehub's analysis of MIBK, with a bullish-bearish score of 1: The commissioning plan for the 30,000-ton/year MIBK unit at Wanhua Chemical's Yantai plant has been delayed to March 2026, which will postpone the increase in supply. In the short term, this alleviates market supply pressure and supports expectations for a rise in MIBK spot prices. As an organic solvent, MIBK is widely used in the coatings and paint industries. The delay in commissioning may exacerbate the tight supply-demand balance in the spot market, benefiting short-term price trends.
