Compared with August 16 (the reference price of butanone was 9433 yuan / ton), the average price increased by 133 yuan / ton, an increase of 1.09% during the week.
At the beginning of this week, on the 16th, some domestic butanone factories raised the ex factory price of butanone slightly. The quotation of butanone in different secondary markets in Shandong also increased sporadically, with an overall increase of 100-300 yuan / ton. The ex factory price of butanone in Shandong is around 9400-9800 yuan / ton, and the high-end quotation is around 10000 yuan / ton. In terms of supply, in mid August, I heard that the main butanone factories had equipment maintenance plans, the overall operating rate of butanone decreased, the supply of butanone in the yard also decreased, and the low inventory still supported butanone. However, in terms of demand, the boost of downstream demand is not obvious, and the market transactions remain cold, mostly just demand. Therefore, the butanone market has not continued to increase significantly since the slight rise at the beginning of the week. At present, up to the middle of this week, the butanone market as a whole has maintained a stable consolidation operation, and more attention needs to be paid to the actual transaction. As of August 18, the average ex factory price of butanone in the domestic market was 9533 yuan / ton. Compared with the beginning of this week, the average price increased by 100 yuan / ton, and the average price of butanone increased slightly by 1.09% during the week.

On August 17, the reference price of liquefied gas was 4850 yuan / ton, an increase of 6.59% compared with August 1 (4550 yuan / ton).
Future analysis of butanone
At present, although the support of butanone supply is acceptable, due to the continuous shortage of demand, the action force of butanone market in the future is slightly insufficient. Butanone analysts of business society believe that in the short term, the domestic butanone market will mainly be consolidated and operated.
