Chemical products into a new round of rising price
2014.06.12 16:21
Influenced by the upcoming new environmental laws, and China formally fulfil the factors,
such as the Montreal treaty on chemical products are moving into the round Rising prices.
Business club in the chemical industry analyst zhang Ming has an interview with China
business times, said: "thanks to new environmental rules for the environmental protection
standard More stringent, leading to chemical products in the production of environmental
costs, which in turn leads to the downstream procurement costs rise, chemical products
prices are common To rise. "Is a realistic example, many chemical industry park, across the
country for more polluted or chlor-alkali projects have all stop or not approved.
Fluorine chemical industry continued healthy
Fluorine chemical industry, for example, one of the methylene chloride from April 1 to May
19 rose more than 40%. During the same period rose by chloroform Also reached 23.27%.
Before July, is expected to continue to rally.
In respect of refrigerant, the HFC - 22, HFC - 134 - a, HFC - 410 - a and so on have been
upward since last October. In march of this year , represented by refrigerant HFC - 22 of
fluorine chemical products gains. Since may and as the weather gradually hot, the demand of
the products Continue to increase, and lead to its prices continue to rise. HFC - 22 rally
or influenced by expectations to commercialization. This year is our country to fulfill the
monte , the first year of treaty, the treaty's main purpose is to control the production
and use of atmospheric ozone layer damaging chemicals, HFC - 22 As the most widely used
refrigerant products, will be key to cut production and consumption.
The personage inside course of study points out, HFC - 22 is not only are the biggest
refrigerant domestic product, or fluorine chemical industry several important downstream
products of PTFE, The basis of HFP, FEP raw materials. At present, the country has not yet
come out the specific operation measures HFC - 22, once introduced, HFC - 22 will face
intense Production and sales of regulation. When HFC - 22 not form a complete set of
downstream production device will shut down step by step, not only can boost domestic HFC -
125, HFC - 32 Environmental protection refrigerants such as consumption, at the same time,
Europe and the United States HFC - 22 demand will appear larger gap. Now, HFC - 22 market
sentiment outbreak period, Only country specific operation policy of "dongfeng".
Refrigerant temperature warmed up demand. Combined with the commercialization of new
environmental laws and launch to reason, after two years of fluorine chemical industry
Adjustment and shuffle, showed signs of recovery. Refrigerant HFC - 22 by early March 10000
yuan/ton rose for two months to 13000 yuan/ton, or 30%, Hit a record high since 2013.
"Over the next five months, demand will continue strong refrigerants, refrigerant products
in the first two quarters of this year are expected to like at the beginning of glyphosate.
"Zhang said.
Glyphosate rise more crazy last year, this year due to lost orders for South America
countries such as Brazil, at present the downward trend, but in advance Plan to June and
will return to South America order season, then you will be presented with a new round of
rising prices.
Titanium dioxide acceleration increases
"Titanium dioxide is directly corresponding to the downstream industry, new environmental
laws will also promote the cost increase and causing prices to rise." Zhang Ming said.
Titanium dioxide is currently the world's most outstanding performance of white pigment,
which accounts for about 80% of all white pigment usage, and temporarily not effective
Alternative products. But the titanium dioxide industry overcapacity, the heavier
pollutants. The rise in price, environmental protection energy conservation and emissions
reduction is a direct cause. It is reported, Environmental protection guidance of titanium
dioxide industry pollution control technology policy and guidance of the ministry of the
titanium dioxide industry access conditions is introduced this year , this will greatly
improve the industry admittance threshold, in the next 50000 tons the following devices
will not have the scale effect. At present, the domestic production capacity in 50000 t/a
In the following company has nearly 30, up to half of the total titanium dioxide
manufacturers. So, environmental policy is bound to make titanium dioxide industry
concentration Degree enhances unceasingly, the environmental protection standard of the
enterprise market share will continue to ascend.
As the environmental pressure increased, dye industry emissions substandard small
businesses shut down gradually. Supply compression H acid raw material prices continue to
make dye Yang, from the beginning of 2013 rose to 24000 yuan/tons in April 2014, 150000
yuan/ton. H acid prices also led to the acceleration of reactive dye price Rose, the price
from the beginning of 2013 rose to 20000 yuan/tons at the end of April 50000 yuan/ton.
Zhang Ming said, as the dye continued imbalance between supply and demand, the whole
industry chain inventory decline, dye price there is room for continued ascension, expected
during the year Up to 60000 yuan/ton.
