Weakening demand in small and medium-sized downstream sectors:
The capacity utilization rate of the main downstream industries of acrylonitrile varies, and the downstream acrylamide industry has seen a decrease in production, resulting in weakened demand in small and medium-sized downstream sectors. The utilization rate of ABS production capacity was 66.82%, an increase of 0.92% compared to last week; The capacity utilization rate of acrylic fiber enterprises was 68.62%, unchanged from last week; The utilization rate of acrylamide production capacity was 45.24%, which was 4.66% higher than last week.

According to statistics, the average production cost of acrylonitrile this week was 8751 yuan/ton, with a month on month increase of 0.41%. The average weekly profit of acrylonitrile production during the same period was -700 yuan/ton, with a month on month decrease of -60 yuan/ton. The production loss situation continues.
Overall, cost support is slightly insufficient, supply is still expected to grow, and downstream demand is weakened. It is expected that the short-term supply and demand relationship of acrylonitrile will continue to be weak, and the market will remain stagnant and weak.
