Titanium Market Report (January 27)
I. Titanium Market Overview
Titanium Ore
Today, the Panzhihua-Xichang titanium ore price index is 1782.50, unchanged from yesterday. Recently, titanium ore production has been stable, with miners mostly fulfilling pre-holiday orders. Downstream costs are under significant pressure, leading to continued strong price pressure, and new order transactions are somewhat stagnant.
Titanium Slag
This month, northern enterprises launched a new round of bidding for 90% low-calcium magnesium high-titanium slag. According to market news, prices continue to decline. This month, 3,000 tons of 90% high-titanium slag and 7,000 tons of 87% titanium-rich slag are being tendered. Due to the decline in some raw material prices, coupled with strong domestic market demand, high-titanium slag prices continue to weaken.
Titanium Tetrachloride
The market price for titanium tetrachloride is 4800-5550 yuan/ton. Demand for titanium tetrachloride is relatively stable, with most enterprises having no inventory, and prices continue to remain stable.
Titanium Sponge
Grade 1 titanium sponge for civilian use is quoted at around 45,000-47,000 yuan/ton, while Grade 0 titanium sponge is quoted at around 46,000-48,000 yuan/ton. Demand for titanium sponge is stable, and prices remain firm due to high costs and inventory levels.
Today's titanium dioxide price index is 13490.03, unchanged from yesterday. High raw material costs have led to firm prices, and the supply and demand relationship for titanium dioxide is basically in a weak balance. Many companies are still waiting for the actions of leading enterprises, resulting in a strong wait-and-see attitude in the market.
