The fluorite commodity index on September 19 was 100.97, which was the same as September 18, which was 20.80% lower than the highest point of 127.49 points (2019-01-03) in the cycle, which was 105.18% higher than the lowest point of 49.21 on December 18, 2016. (Note: Cycle refers to 2011-09-01 to date)
According to statistics, the domestic fluorite price trend fluctuated at a low level. As of September 19, the domestic fluorite average price was 2877.79 RMB/ton. Recently, the domestic fluorite equipment was driving normally. The mines and flotation devices in the field started normally, and the fluorite supply was sufficient. Recently, the price of hydrofluoric acid in the downstream has remained low. For the fluorite market, on-demand purchase, the volcanic field is in poor condition, and the fluorite market price is temporarily stable. Recently, the downstream equipment started in general, the spot supply of fluorite in the market was sufficient, and the downstream demand of the terminal did not improve, resulting in weak market prices. As of September 19, the price of 97 fluorite wet powder in Inner Mongolia was 2700-2900 RMB/ton, the mainstream of 97 fluorite wet powder in Fujian area was 2700-2900 RMB/ton, and the price of 97 fluorite wet powder in Henan area was 2700-2900 RMB/Tons, the price of 97 fluorite wet powder in Jiangxi is 2700-3000 RMB/ton, and the price of fluorite remains low.
The price trend of hydrofluoric acid in the downstream of fluorite remained at a low level. As of September 19, the domestic market price of hydrofluoric acid was 10,370 RMB/ton. The low price of hydrofluoric acid market had a certain negative impact on the upstream fluorite market。 However, the recent start-up of hydrofluoric acid plant is general, the demand for fluorite has weakened and the price of fluorite has declined. Recently, the market for downstream refrigerants in the terminal market is generally low, and the domestic refrigerant R22 market is oscillating. From the perspective of market supply, the refrigerant R22 market continues to be weak, the manufacturer's production equipment reduces the starting load, the market supply capacity has decreased, and the inventory pressure has been buffered. On the demand side, the downstream air-conditioning manufacturers overhauled, the demand only decreased, and the price of domestic large enterprises fell to the level of 12,500-14,500 RMB / ton. The domestic R134a market price trend has declined. At present, the R134a market has entered a low season, and downstream demand is weak. The operating rate of several R134a producers remains low. However, the transaction price on the market continued to fall, and the merchants purchased on demand. At the end of the peak season, the downstream demand of the terminal was only reduced, and the price of the fluorite was at a low level affected by the market.
Generally speaking, the downstream refrigerant industry is declining, and the supply of fluorite market is sufficient, and the demand of downstream refrigerant industry is not good. The analyst of SunSirs, believe that the price of fluorite market may continue to decline.
