Titanium Market Trends (March 27)
I. Titanium Market Overview
Titanium Ore
Today, the Panzhihua-Xichang titanium ore price index is 1717.50, down 10.00 from yesterday. Recently, the Panzhihua ore market has remained weak, with downstream enterprises increasingly expecting production cuts. Titanium ore shipments remain under pressure, and market prices are trending downwards, with transactions negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
Titanium Slag
In March, the tender price for 90% low-calcium magnesium high-titanium slag from northern enterprises was 5200 yuan/ton, down 100 yuan/ton from the previous month. The high-titanium slag market continues its weak trend, with downstream demand remaining sluggish, trading activity quiet, and market sentiment bearish. Prices are expected to remain low in the short term.
Titanium Tetrachloride
The titanium tetrachloride market is performing well. High liquid chlorine prices provide strong support from raw material costs, and spot supply remains tight. Short-term prices are expected to rise further.
Titanium Sponge
The mainstream price for Grade 1 titanium sponge (civilian grade) is 46,000-47,000 RMB/ton, and Grade 0 is 47,000-48,000 RMB/ton. Raw material costs are providing stable support, but downstream demand for titanium materials is insufficient, with limited willingness to accept high prices. New orders are stagnant, and the titanium sponge market is expected to continue its consolidation pattern in the short term.
Today's titanium dioxide price index is 14520.35, unchanged from yesterday. Today, Dahutong Titanium Industry issued a letter raising titanium dioxide prices by 1000 RMB/ton, and international prices increased by 150 USD/ton. This is the third round of price increases this month, with 25 companies issuing price increases.
Titanium dioxide companies are gradually implementing the price increases for new orders, and some companies are restricting order intake. Market sentiment is bullish, and titanium dioxide transaction prices are expected to gradually rise.
