Morning Market Commentary for MIBK

Published on 2026-11-11

I. Key Points

  1. Yesterday, the reference transaction price for MIBK in the market was 12,950 RMB/ton, a decrease of 150 RMB/ton.
  2. Yesterday, the mainstream reference transaction price for the raw material acetone was 8,350 RMB/ton, a decrease of 225 RMB/ton.

Acetone East China 8350 8575 -2.62%
MIBK East China 12950 13100 -1.15%
Notes: 1. Acetone prices refer to national standard premium grade; MIBK prices refer to enterprise standards. 2. All listed prices are cash-on-pickup prices, unit: RMB/ton. 3. The two-period prices represent point-in-time prices from the past two working days, not weekly averages. 4. The change rate is the period-over-period percentage change.

III. Market Outlook

Yesterday, the domestic MIBK market experienced a significant decline. Influenced by the sharp drop in international crude oil prices, both cost pressures and downstream demand weakened. Holders showed high willingness to sell, leading to lower offers; however, actual transactions remained limited, resulting in a downward trend in market prices. Today, the domestic MIBK market is expected to remain weak with fluctuating trends. Attention should be paid to the raw material acetone market and actual transaction volumes.
