Titanium Market Report (February 26)
I. Titanium Market Overview
Titanium Ore
Today, the Panzhihua-Xichang titanium ore price index was 1775.00, unchanged from yesterday. The titanium ore market is currently stable, with most miners maintaining pre-holiday prices. Market sentiment is cautious, but the titanium ore market may remain firm as downstream titanium dioxide production gradually recovers.
Titanium Slag
In February, the bidding price for 90% low-calcium magnesium high-grade slag from northern enterprises was 5300 yuan/ton, a decrease of 100 yuan/ton compared to January. Due to high raw material costs, slag plants are maintaining reduced production, resulting in a weak supply-demand balance and persistently low high-grade slag prices.
Titanium Tetrachloride
The market price for titanium tetrachloride is 4800-5550 yuan/ton. The titanium tetrachloride market is stable, with prices remaining stable due to cost factors.
Titanium Sponge
The price of Grade 1 titanium sponge for civilian use is around 45,000-47,000 yuan/ton, while Grade 0 titanium sponge is quoted at around 46,000-48,000 yuan/ton. Mainstream prices for titanium sponge are stable, with demand showing some divergence. Enterprises have good inventory levels, and prices remain stable.
Titanium Dioxide
Today, the titanium dioxide price index is 13490.03, unchanged from yesterday. Xianghai Titanium Industry issued a letter today announcing a price increase of 500 yuan/ton domestically and 100 USD/ton internationally for titanium dioxide. Two chloride-process enterprises have successively raised prices, while sulfuric acid-process enterprises are still largely observing the market.
The titanium dioxide market may be facing a price surge, awaiting news from leading companies. Downstream markets are gradually resuming operations, coupled with reduced titanium dioxide supply in February and high raw material costs, supporting the upward trend in titanium dioxide prices.
