Analysis review
The propylene oxide market slightly declined in February. The cost support before the holiday was average, and downstream suppliers mainly chose to replenish goods on demand. As terminals gradually withdrew from the market, downstream new orders were average, and the pace of purchasing propylene oxide slowed down, resulting in a weak market operation. After the holiday, factory shipments were average, and the demand side was mainly focused on digesting inventory. The follow-up of new orders was limited. In addition, some regions were affected by rainy and snowy weather, and the overall market atmosphere was average. The market was stagnant and weak.
