Yesterday, the domestic isopropanol market moved up within a narrow range. With feedstock acetone prices rising, producers had relatively strong cost support and successively raised their quotations. However, terminal demand failed to keep pace, and market sentiment was somewhat weak. In the afternoon, influenced by news-related factors, intermediate traders grew more reluctant to sell, and some suspended quotations. Most market participants were waiting for clearer market direction. Today, the isopropanol market is expected to remain elevated and consolidate, with players watching feedstock market trends and demand-side follow-up.
