The downstream market fell slightly, and calcium carbide fell in the aftermarket or in a narrow range

In the first ten days of July, the calcium carbide market fell mainly in a narrow range. The price of raw material blue carbon fell slightly, the cost support of calcium carbide weakened, but the downstream PVC market fell slightly, the downstream demand weakened, and the power for calcium carbide to rise was insufficient. In the future, it is predicted that the price of calcium carbide in Northwest China may fall in a narrow range in early July.
