MIBK Market Morning Briefing (September 11, 2026)

Published on 2026-09-11

I. Key Points

  1. Yesterday, MIBK market negotiations were referenced at RMB 13,000/mt, up RMB 1,000/mt.
  2. Yesterday, mainstream negotiations for the raw material acetone were referenced at RMB 9,100/mt, up RMB 575/mt.

Core logic: Costs rose sharply, and suppliers pushed prices up.

II. Price Table

Product Region Sep 10 Sep 9 Change Rate
Acetone East China 9,100 8,525 6.74%
MIBK East China 13,000 12,000 8.33%
Remarks: 1. Acetone is based on national standard premium grade, and MIBK is based on enterprise standard. 2. All prices in the table are cash ex-works prices, in yuan/mt. 3. The prices for the two periods are point-in-time prices from the past two working weeks, not weekly averages. 4. The change rate is the period-on-period change rate.

III. Market Outlook

The domestic MIBK market surged yesterday. Driven by the continuous sharp rise in acetone, holders pushed up prices and offers rose sharply; downstream inquiries were limited, high-priced transactions were insufficient, and trading activity was sparse. The domestic MIBK market is expected to continue its upward trend today. Attention should be paid to fluctuations in raw material acetone prices and their impact.

IV. Data Calendar

Data Item Release Date Previous Data Current Trend Forecast Remarks
Acetone port inventory Friday 10:00 AM 13,500 mt
MIBK capacity utilization rate Thursday 5:00 PM 48.82%
1. ↓↑ are regarded as sharp fluctuations, highlighting data dimensions with changes exceeding 3%. 2. ↗↘ are regarded as narrow fluctuations, highlighting data with changes within 3%. 3. → indicates stability.

    Acetone feedstock cost is pushing MIBK offers up, but sparse high-price trades and soft downstream demand suggest thin margin support. I expect firm quotes near term, though loose capacity utilization is a pullback risk.
