Today, domestic DBP market prices fluctuated downward amidst strong wait-and-see sentiment. While the price of the raw material naphthalene-based phthalic anhydrose rose, n-butanol continued to decline, providing some support to costs. Downstream purchasing interest was average, with buyers maintaining rigid demand and buying on dips. Overall trading operations remained cautious, with transaction centers skewed toward lower price levels.
Today, the capacity utilization rate for domestic DBP stood at 46%. The current profitability level for DBP products is approximately 388 RMB/ton.
Looking ahead, with the upcoming holiday, the cost side’s influence on price support is diminishing. Although downstream rigid-demand procurement activity has slightly increased, wait-and-see sentiment remains heavy, and market transaction centers are skewed toward lower ends. It is expected that the DBP market will undergo oscillating consolidation in the near term.
