Weekly Data Statistics on Capacity Utilization of Propylene Oxide in China (October 30 – November 5, 2026)

Published on 2026-11-05

During the week, Jinling gradually resumed operations on-site, while Binhua Dongrui underwent maintenance and Xinyue slightly increased its operating load. Other producers remained stable, resulting in minimal overall changes. Total production for this period was 127,600 tonnes, a decrease of 3,900 tonnes from the previous period. The capacity utilization rate stood at 68.14%, down by 2.05 percentage points compared to the prior period.

Sample Description: Data is collected from 32 domestic propylene oxide enterprises, covering 100% of the sample scope.

Term Definitions: Propylene oxide production refers to the quantity of products meeting quality standards actually output by propylene oxide enterprises daily. This data is derived through theoretical calculations based on enterprise operating loads. Capacity utilization indicates the degree to which an enterprise’s capacity is used, generally calculated as the ratio of product output or raw material processing volume to effective capacity. Weekly propylene oxide capacity utilization = Weekly propylene oxide production / Weekly propylene oxide capacity.

Statistical Scope: The statistical period runs from last Friday to this Thursday, with data released every Thursday afternoon.
