Yesterday, the domestic isopropanol (IPA) market experienced narrow fluctuations. With rising acetone prices, holders showed limited willingness to sell at low prices, causing quoted price centers to edge slightly higher. Downstream factories purchased on a need-to-buy basis, resulting in moderate trading activity and insufficient transaction volumes at higher price levels. Today, the IPA market is expected to maintain range-bound consolidation as participants wait and see regarding raw material trends and demand follow-through.
