There is support for the demand for NBR. The inventory pressure of NBR enterprises is average, and the price of NBR in the market is high and narrow.

Recently (3.11-3.18), the domestic NBR plant has been operating steadily.

After the holiday, the production of downstream NBR hoses in China gradually increased to around 6.2%, and the production of insulation foam gradually increased to around 6.5%. The demand for NBR has some support in the market, but downstream inquiries for high-level goods are cautious, and market transactions are flat.

SunSirs nitrile analyst believes that currently, the high cost of butadiene and acrylonitrile raw materials for NBR is supported by high prices. However, although downstream production is gradually increasing, inquiries are cautious and will maintain certain support for NBR in the short term. Overall, it is expected that the NBR market will mainly experience narrow fluctuations in the later stage.
