Analysis review   

Product: After the May Day holiday, due to the decrease in exports of products such as bleached boards, downstream products of hydrogen peroxide, the demand for hydrogen peroxide was weak, and the price continued to fall, with the price falling by about 5 points. The price of terminal caprolactam products continued to rise, with the price rising nearly 15 points. Driven by the sharp rise of caprolactam, the amount of hydrogen peroxide purchased by manufacturers gradually increased. This week, hydrogen peroxide ushered in a rising market. The main quotation of domestic hydrogen peroxide is 760-800 RMB/ton, with the price rising by 50-100 RMB/ton.

As of May 19, the quotation of hydrogen peroxide in each region was as follows:

Industrial chain: After the May Day holiday, the price of terminal caprolactam rose all the way because of the rising price of raw material pure benzene. Driven by the rising situation, the spot supply was tight. Some enterprises restarted the device, increased the purchase demand for hydrogen peroxide, and the hydrogen peroxide was boosted. The market was getting better. Due to the depression of paper printing industry, the increase was limited.

Market outlook

According to hydrogen peroxide analysts of SunSirs, terminal caprolactam manufacturers have increased startup rate, and later supply keeps pace with the price. In the short term, it will support the hydrogen peroxide Market. In the long term, the momentum of hydrogen peroxide growth is still insufficient.
