I. Titanium Market Overview

Titanium Ore

Today the Panxi titanium ore price index stood at 1,255.00, unchanged from the previous working day. The titanium ore market remained in weak stalemate. Market demand was sluggish, while raw material supply continued to be tight. Concentrators faced inverted production economics, and price-holding sentiment in the market remained firm. However, new order transactions were stalled, and the titanium ore market continued to operate weakly and steadily. On the import side, downstream raw material procurement was cautious, with both sides in a stalemate. Supply-side pressure remained significant, and low-priced cargos were still available in the market, leading to weak and disorderly pricing.

Titanium Slag

This month, the tender price for 90% low-calcium-magnesium high-titanium slag from northern enterprises was set at RMB 5,200/ton, a reduction of RMB 200/ton from the July price. Titanium raw material prices had weakened earlier, reducing the cost of high-titanium slag. Combined with relatively ample market supply, high-titanium slag prices came under pressure, and the market maintained a weak trend.

Titanium Tetrachloride

The titanium tetrachloride market was quoted at RMB 5,800-6,000/ton. Supply of titanium tetrachloride in the market was tight, and enterprise quotes remained firm. It was reported that external sales of titanium tetrachloride may continue to decline going forward. Titanium tetrachloride prices are expected to remain stable in September.

Sponge Titanium

The sponge titanium market was weakly stable. The mainstream quote for Grade 0 sponge titanium was around RMB 45,000-46,000/ton. The mainstream quote for Grade 1 sponge titanium for civilian applications was around RMB 44,000-45,000/ton. Downstream civilian demand was sluggish, sponge titanium new order shipments faced pressure, supply was under pressure, and market prices remained weak.

Titanium Dioxide

Today the titanium dioxide price index stood at 14,506.83, unchanged from the previous working day. Peak season demand in September fell short of expectations, and price competition pressure remained significant. Last week, Taihai issued a price increase notice, and a few other companies showed price-holding intentions. At month-end, some titanium dioxide companies increased shipments. Overall market inventory remained high, supply pressure persisted, and the titanium dioxide market remained weak with prices negotiated on a deal-by-deal basis.
