Today, domestic polycarboxylate superplasticizer monomer prices are expected to trend slightly weaker. The primary raw material, ethylene oxide (EO), is likely to remain stable. Units under maintenance have not yet restarted, and supply remains tight in certain regions while downstream consumption proceeds steadily. Increased available inventory in the domestic ethylene market, combined with weak performance in derivative markets, has reduced buyers' willingness to purchase raw materials. Consequently, there is room for price declines, although cost-side support may provide a floor. Monomer prices are trending lower amid strong wait-and-see attitudes among downstream users. Raw material procurement remains limited to essential demand, making it difficult to achieve significant transaction volumes; actual deals are sporadic, with pricing largely negotiated based on quantity. In summary, the price of EPEG in the leading East China market is projected to range between 9,700 and 10,100 CNY/ton today.
