From the perspective of supply and demand, the downstream industry's procurement demand for formic acid was mostly followed by rigid demand consumption, with orderly market trading and relatively stable supply and demand support. The focus of the quotation was mainly stable.

Market outlook

Market transactions may continue to be mainly in demand, and it is expected that the formic acid market will remain stable and wait-and-see in the short term.
