Recently, the price of raw material acetic acid has risen, the price of raw material methanol has risen, and the overall cost of acetic anhydride manufacturers has risen, which has formed a positive effect on the price of acetic anhydride. The operating rate of downstream customers has rebounded, and the demand for acetic anhydride is favorable. The recovery of downstream purchases provided support for the increase in the price of acetic anhydride. However, with the increase in the operating rate of acetic anhydride equipment, the supply of acetic anhydride increased, while the demand for acetic anhydride recovered slowly. It is difficult to support the price of acetic anhydride to continue to rise, raw material prices. Rising, the cost of acetic anhydride rose, the price of acetic anhydride has a strong upward momentum support, and it is expected that the price of acetic anhydride will fluctuate and adjust. The overall domestic acetic anhydride price is difficult to rise and fall sharply, with a small increase and decrease.
