At the beginning of November, PA6 remained stable and the market was strong in the middle of November, and all brands of products generally increased greatly. The whole month operating rate of downstream nylon filament is acceptable, but the factory has a psychological resistance to high price goods, and the demand is slightly weak. In the last ten days, the atmosphere of traders selling goods was strong, and the price of PA6 market was impacted by the single profit. However, the tight supply pattern of caprolactam in December has become clear. Under the pressure of cost, the price of PA6 polymerization plant is on the way to increase. In the short term, China PA6 may end the shock and rise again.
SunSirs analysts believe that: China domestic PA6 market rose in November, the end of the high finishing. The upstream caprolactam supply decreased and the price went up, which strongly supported the cost side of PA6. Downstream factories just purchase by needs, and have conflicts with high price goods, so they should be cautious in purchasing and trading. It is expected that the spot price of PA6 will continue to rise in the short term in China. It is suggested to pay close attention to the supply and demand of raw materials.
