03 Carbon Black Market Impact Analysis
1. Upstream Raw Materials: Coal tar prices are 3,650 yuan/ton in Shandong; 3,670 yuan/ton in Shanxi; and 3,680 yuan/ton in Hebei. The favorable factors in the domestic high-temperature coal tar market are gradually being absorbed, and the coal tar market is in a wait-and-see mood.
2. Carbon Black Supply: Carbon black manufacturers' operating loads have increased slightly, with some manufacturers with low operating rates increasing their operations. However, as market losses widen, some companies have also reduced production. However, previous orders are being delivered, limiting fluctuations in operating rates.
3. Downstream Demand: It is understood that most companies' operating rates continued to remain stable at the beginning of the month. Some all-steel tire manufacturers, impacted by inventory shortages, have slightly increased their operating rates to meet order demand. Currently, companies undergoing maintenance have not yet resumed work, which still limits the overall increase in operating rates.
