Cracked C5 output rose this week, with production expected to decline next week.

This week, industrial pyrolysis C5 output rose by 1,600 tons from the previous week, an increase of 2.21%.

The main reasons for this week's output fluctuation are as follows: Shenghong Refining & Chemical's ethylene unit was restarted this week, boosting pyrolysis C5 output. Meanwhile, several enterprises also posted slight output increases, collectively driving the weekly rise. However, next week a company in South China is scheduled for a plant shutdown, and some enterprises in North China plan to suspend sales for about 10 days. Currently, some domestic ethylene units are showing signs of "chemical-to-oil" conversion, with ethylene feedstock being recycled back to refinery oil; this warrants close monitoring.

Notes on Sample Data:

Output: Output generally refers to the quantity of products actually produced by a manufacturing enterprise during a given period that conforms to relevant standards.

The industrial pyrolysis C5 output statistics compiled by Chempricehub Information represent the total output of all industrial pyrolysis C5 producers in China (including enterprises that use the product for their own internal consumption).

Chempricehub Information's industrial pyrolysis C5 output data are first-hand statistical data, covering 38 domestic enterprises with a sample coverage rate of 100%. The statistical period runs from Friday of the previous week to Thursday of the current week.

    C5 supply swings are whippy—this week's bump from Shenghong restart is already being offset by planned shutdowns and sales halts next week. Watch those capacity utilization shifts; the chemical-to-oil recycling signal c..
