Weekly Data Statistics on Production Profit of Acrylic Emulsion in China (November 6–12, 2026)

As of November 12, 2026, the theoretical production gross margin for pure acrylic emulsion this week was RMB 681 per ton, an increase of RMB 57.5 per ton from the previous week, representing a 9.22% week-on-week rise. The theoretical production gross margin for styrene-acrylic emulsion was RMB 311.6 per ton, up by RMB 415.44 per ton from the previous week, marking a 400.08% week-on-week increase. This significant improvement was primarily driven by the continued decline in butyl acrylate prices, which eased cost pressures on styrene-acrylic emulsions and boosted their profitability.

Sample Description:
The data reflects theoretical cost and profit monitoring based on Chempricehub’s statistics for pure acrylic and styrene-acrylic emulsion prices, as well as raw material listed prices, collected on the day of publication.

Definitions:

• Cost: Production cost refers to the total direct expenses, direct labor costs, and manufacturing overhead incurred by enterprises to produce specific types and quantities of products. For acrylic emulsions, production cost is calculated theoretically based on three key raw materials: butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate (MMA), and styrene.
• Profit: Production profit is calculated using the market prices of pure acrylic and styrene-acrylic emulsions as the baseline. It equals the emulsion price minus total production costs and additional expenses (excluding financial costs).

Statistical Scope:
The statistical period runs from last Friday through this Thursday. Profit data for this Thursday are compared with those from last Thursday. Chempricehub provides first-hand statistical data on acrylic emulsion product profits, published between 15:00 and 17:00 every Thursday on working days.
