I. Key Points

  1. Market sentiment for 97% wet fluorite powder across the board remained conflicted, with limited trading activity.
  2. The mainstream contract delivered price for anhydrous hydrofluoric acid in October was referenced at CNY 14,500–14,800/tonne. In the Shandong market, the mainstream contract delivered price was referenced at CNY 14,760–15,000/tonne.
  3. Major producers maintained firm quotes for refrigerant R32, with operating rates hovering around 40–50%.

Core Logic: Chemical fluoro feedstock markets have recently adopted a cautious wait-and-see stance. Overall supply remains tight in the short term; however, continuously declining demand is weighing on market participants' sentiment.

III. Market Outlook

Yesterday, domestic market sentiment for 97% fluorite concentrate deepened into a wait-and-see mode. During the downstream bidding and pricing period, the pricing center for downstream hydrofluoric acid rose significantly by CNY 900–1,100/tonne. Procurement prices for fluorite from major southern manufacturers increased by CNY 150/tonne, guiding the market. Consequently, bullish momentum within the fluorite sector rebounded again. Suppliers are waiting to see how hydrofluoric acid prices settle before adjusting their offers, leading to intensified bargaining between supply and demand sides.

Current spot delivered price references by region:

  • Inner Mongolia: CNY 3,300–3,400/tonne
  • Zhejiang: CNY 3,500–3,600/tonne
  • Jiangxi & Fujian: CNY 3,700–3,750/tonne
  • Shandong: CNY 3,550–3,650/tonne
  • Northwest: CNY 3,400–3,450/tonne
  • Henan & Anhui: CNY 3,450–3,500/tonne

As of press time, the mainstream delivered price for domestic 97% wet fluorite powder is referenced at CNY 3,300–3,750/tonne.

    Tight fluorite supply and firm R32 quotes at low capacity utilization are keeping feedstock costs elevated, but weak downstream demand limits margin expansion. I expect prices to stay volatile as producers balance invent..
