III. Market Outlook
In the morning, the dimethyl ether (DME) market operated steadily. Supply remained at a relatively low level. In the domestic civilian sector, there was limited but orderly purchasing based on volume requirements, while industrial demand was primarily driven by rigid needs with small-batch, frequent procurement. Overall market trading activity was sluggish. Chempricehub forecasts that the DME market will likely remain sideways in the short term.
