Based on the Henan region as a benchmark, domestic DBP closed at 10,700–10,750 RMB/ton today, aligning with morning expectations. The domestic DBP market trended slightly stronger amid fluctuations this day. Both key raw materials, phthalic anhydride and n-Butanol, continued to rise in price, leading to significant cost increases that strengthened price support. Meanwhile, market supply was limited. Downstream users purchased based on rigid demand at lower price points, causing low-end quotes to disappear and pushing the trading center toward higher levels.
The domestic DBP capacity utilization rate was 38% today. Raw material phthalic anhydride prices continued to surge, while n-Butanol opened higher. The current profitability of DBP products is approximately 473 RMB/ton.
Currently, the raw material market remains at high levels, with strong cost support sustaining prices. Market supply is limited, and downstream purchasing is primarily driven by rigid demand at lower price points, though willingness to accept goods has weakened. The DBP market is expected to consolidate at high levels in the near future.
DOP Market: Today, raw materials 2-Ethylhexanol and phthalic anhydride continued to rise in price. DOP traders focused on selling off inventory, taking advantage of the upward trend. While some local markets showed slight price firming, buying sentiment weakened compared to yesterday. End-users maintained purchases based on rigid demand. In the afternoon, a rebound in crude oil prices provided moderate support for local transactions.
