Weekly Outlook for the Domestic Wet Fluorite Powder Market

Published on 2026-11-09

I. Key Points

  1. The market for 97% wet fluorite powder is awaiting guidance from multiple factors across the sector.
  2. The mainstream contract delivered price for anhydrous hydrofluoric acid in November is referenced at RMB 15,300–15,650/ton; in the Shandong market, the mainstream contract delivered price is referenced at RMB 15,500–15,600/ton.
  3. Major manufacturers are maintaining firm offers for Fluorinated Refrigerant R32, with operating rates hovering around 40–50%.

Core Logic: Participants in the fluorine chemical raw materials sector have adopted a cautious wait-and-see approach recently. Overall supply remains tight in the short term, but continuously declining demand is weighing on market sentiment.

III. Market Outlook

Last week, the domestic market for 97% fluorite concentrate powder witnessed intense bargaining. A downward trend has become evident in the northern market; although suppliers are reluctant to lower prices, downstream buyers are clearly pushing for price reductions. Meanwhile, the southern market remains in a stalemate. Although some high-priced orders previously guided transactions upward, downstream enterprises faced significant margin inversion earlier and find it difficult to accept high-priced raw materials, actively seeking supplementary sources from other regions. Current spot delivered prices in various domestic markets are referenced as follows: Inner Mongolia region at RMB 3,300–3,400/ton; Zhejiang region at RMB 3,600–3,700/ton; Jiangxi and Fujian regions at RMB 3,700–3,800/ton; Shandong region at RMB 3,550–3,650/ton; Northwest region at RMB 3,400–3,450/ton; Henan and Anhui regions at RMB 3,450–3,500/ton. As of press time, the mainstream delivered price for domestic wet fluorite powder is referenced at RMB 3,300–3,800/ton.

    With fluorite supply tight but downstream demand softening, I see margin pressure building across the HF chain. Capacity utilization at 40-50% for R32 suggests cautious production planning. While northern prices dip, sou..
