The aniline market first suppressed and then rebounded in November

1、 Price trend
According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, the aniline market remained strong and rose in November. On November 1st, the market price of aniline was 7995 yuan/ton, and on November 27th it was 8045 yuan/ton, with a rise of 0.63% during the period and a decrease of 12.77% compared to the same period last year.
2、 Analysis and Review
The aniline market turned from weak to strong in November, mainly supported by the cost and supply sides. At the beginning of the month, the price of raw material pure benzene slightly increased, and the production of raw material nitric acid in the main production areas was low. The price of nitric acid was tight and the price increased. The production of aniline enterprises for nitric acid extraction was restricted, and there was a possibility of negative pressure in the later stage. Under the boost from the raw material side, aniline factories collectively raised prices, resulting in active transactions and continuous price increases for aniline. In the middle of the month, the price of aniline stabilized after rising, and aniline companies had smooth shipments with little inventory pressure. At the end of the month, with tight supply and stable demand in the main production areas of East China, aniline continued to rise, and downstream purchases were made on demand, resulting in stable transactions.
Pure benzene: The pure benzene market fluctuated at a low level in November. The overall supply remains loose, with downstream essential purchases being the main focus. Some loss making varieties have reduced production to maintain prices, and overall demand support is limited. The pure benzene market has rebounded multiple times within the month, but due to demand constraints, the magnitude is limited. Under weak fundamentals, the pure benzene market is prone to decline but difficult to rise.
3、 Future expectations
At present, the supply side of the aniline market is strongly supported, the raw material pure benzene remains weak, and the demand side remains stable. Under the long short game, it is expected that the aniline market will operate strongly in the short term.

Polyethylene weakness continues in November

According to the monitoring of the commodity market analysis system of Shengyi Society, the average price of LLDPE (7042) was 7088 yuan/ton on November 1st and 6980 yuan/ton on November 25th, a decrease of 1.53%. LDPE (2426H) had an average price of 9316 yuan/ton on November 1st and 9016 yuan/ton on November 25th, a decrease of 3.22%. HDPE (2426H) had an average price of 7650 yuan/ton on November 1st and 7437 yuan/ton on November 25th, a decrease of 2.78%.
The supply and demand fundamentals of polyethylene remained unchanged in November, and the weakness continued, with a relatively large decline in high-pressure products. In terms of supply, there has been an increase in the restart of maintenance equipment in the early stage, and the release of new production capacity has not reduced the pressure on supply. On the demand side: The e-commerce festival has boosted the packaging film industry, but after the pre holiday stocking ends, the operating rate has fallen slightly; The peak season for the agricultural film industry has ended, and downstream customers are cautious in receiving goods, with a strong wait-and-see attitude. The main focus is on essential purchases, but the support is insufficient. The market lacks favorable conditions and has a bearish mentality. Petrochemical companies and traders continue to lower prices for shipments. In the short term, weak fluctuations in international oil prices have limited impact on the polyethylene market.
Supply pressure still exists, market transactions are cautious, downstream factories are replenishing inventory at low prices, and demand has entered the off-season. It is expected that polyethylene will mainly operate weakly.

The hydrogen peroxide market is weak and declining in November

According to the commodity analysis system of Shengyi Society, the hydrogen peroxide market has continued to decline since November, with prices remaining weak and consolidating. On November 1st, the average market price of hydrogen peroxide was 930 yuan/ton, and on November 25th, the average market price of hydrogen peroxide was 846 yuan/ton, a decrease of 8.96% in price.
Negative led hydrogen peroxide market weakens in November
In the first ten days, hydrogen peroxide supply was loose, terminal demand was sluggish, and negative factors dominated, resulting in a continuous decline in the hydrogen peroxide market. The average price of hydrogen peroxide in the Shandong region is 850-880 yuan/ton, with a price drop of 50 yuan/ton. The average price of hydrogen peroxide in the Anhui region is around 850 yuan/ton, with a price drop of 50 yuan/ton. As of November 15th, the average price of hydrogen peroxide in the domestic market has dropped to around 860 yuan/ton, an overall decrease of 70 yuan/ton from the beginning of the month.
In the middle of the month, due to the shutdown and maintenance of hydrogen peroxide manufacturers, supply became tight, and manufacturers raised prices, resulting in a slight increase in the hydrogen peroxide market. Due to the sustained low demand from end-users, the hydrogen peroxide market experienced a pullback after rising, with prices returning to the 860 yuan/ton line.
At the end of the month, the demand for hydrogen peroxide terminals was poor, the market transactions were average, and the market continued to decline weakly. The average price of hydrogen peroxide in the domestic market has dropped to around 850 yuan/ton, a decrease of 100 yuan/ton from the beginning of the month.
The hydrogen peroxide analyst from Shengyi Society believes that in December, the demand for terminal printing and papermaking industry remains sluggish, and the supply of hydrogen peroxide is loose. The future market trend will continue to decline.

This week, the acetic acid market saw a narrow upward adjustment

According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, as of November 16th, the average market price of acetic acid was 2433.33 yuan/ton, an increase of 13.33 yuan/ton or 0.55% compared to the price of 2420.00 yuan/ton on November 10th. This week, the domestic acetic acid market saw a narrow upward adjustment, mainly due to a decrease in the utilization rate of acetic acid production capacity on the supply side, weakened market inventory pressure, and a strong corporate mentality. Acetic acid prices have also increased, and downstream purchases are mainly based on demand. Market transactions are limited, which has weakened the support for acetic acid.
This week, the raw material methanol market fluctuated and consolidated. As of the 16th, the average price in the domestic market was 2070 yuan/ton, an increase of 0.15% compared to the price of 2067 yuan/ton on November 10th. Methanol imports are at a high level, port inventories continue to accumulate, and although downstream demand has rebounded, the market fundamentals are still oversupplied. Methanol companies face significant shipping pressure, and the methanol market is fluctuating.
The downstream acetic anhydride market is operating in a wait-and-see manner, with the average ex factory price of acetic anhydride remaining at 4107.50 yuan/ton from November 10th to 16th. The upstream acetic acid market is relatively strong and rising, supported by favorable costs for acetic anhydride. However, downstream entry enthusiasm is not high, and the market trading atmosphere is weak. The internal state of the market is playing games, and the price of acetic anhydride has stabilized during the cycle.
In terms of future market forecast, the acetic acid analyst from Shengyi Society believes that some manufacturers in the domestic acetic acid market have stopped for maintenance, and the inventory pressure of enterprises is not high. The mentality is mainly on the rise, and downstream demand is following up on demand. The market transaction is weak, which has a certain suppressive effect on the trend of acetic acid. It is expected that the acetic acid market will be observed and operated in the later stage, and the market supply situation will be closely monitored in the future.

Supplier raises prices slightly in the butadiene market

According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, the domestic butadiene market has fluctuated upward in this cycle. From November 10th to November 17th, 2025, the price of butadiene will increase from 6900 yuan/ton to 6966.67 yuan/ton, a rise of 0.97%. The domestic butadiene market has fluctuated upward in this cycle, with lower prices in the early stage, attracting some downstream buyers to replenish inventory at low prices, driving the trading atmosphere in the spot market to improve. The spot market price has slightly rebounded, and refineries generally have a strong mentality of raising prices. It is difficult to find low-priced sources in the market, and the overall market price is on the rise. However, due to the weak demand from downstream terminals, the increase is limited.
Cost wise: According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, as of November 14th, the settlement price of the December WTI crude oil futures contract in the United States was $60.09 per barrel. The settlement price of Brent crude oil futures for January contract is $64.39 per barrel.
Supply side: The listed price of butadiene for various sales companies of Sinopec is 7000 yuan/ton.
Demand side: According to the commodity market analysis system of Shengyi Society, the butadiene rubber market has slightly increased. On the one hand, the price of raw material butadiene has weakened and decreased, causing a significant shift in the cost center of butadiene rubber; Part of the pre maintenance equipment has restarted operation, and the production of butadiene rubber has slightly increased, resulting in a slight increase in supply pressure; On the other hand, downstream tire production has slightly rebounded, providing support for the demand for butadiene rubber, but resisting high priced sources. The basic operation of butadiene rubber is weak. As of November 17th, the market situation of Shunding rubber in the northwest region has slightly increased, and the futures price of Shunding rubber has fluctuated narrowly. Business offers have slightly increased by around 50-100 yuan/ton. At present, the mainstream prices for butadiene rubber in Sichuan, Dushanzi, and Lande are 10600-10800 yuan/ton.
Market forecast: The trading situation in the spot market is still good in the near future, and refineries have a strong mentality of raising prices. However, the supply performance is still relatively loose and the external market is weak, with limited upward momentum in the market. It is expected that the butadiene market will mainly experience strong fluctuations in the short term, with a focus on downstream procurement demand.

BDO market situation is deadlocked and sorted out

According to the Commodity Market Analysis System of Shengyi Society, from November 10th to 14th, the domestic BDO price was adjusted to 7442 yuan/ton, with a month on month decrease of 0.31% and a year-on-year decrease of 15.28%. There are many restarts in terms of equipment, and the support from the supply side has weakened. But the industry has been suffering long-term losses, and the mentality of stabilizing the market still exists among suppliers. Downstream demand has increased, but under cost pressure, contracts are being followed up, and spot purchases are light and negotiated. The intensifying supply-demand game makes it difficult for the market center of gravity to fluctuate.
In terms of supply and equipment, the industry’s capacity utilization rate has increased to around 56%, and the supply of goods has increased, exacerbating the cautious wait-and-see attitude of industry players. The favorable factors for BDO supply have weakened.
On the cost side, raw material calcium carbide: The price of raw material blue charcoal has been raised by 60 yuan/ton, further increasing the loss pressure on calcium carbide enterprises. Under cost pressure, the increase in maintenance equipment has led to a narrow decline in supply, and the destocking performance in the production area market is obvious. Raw material methanol: The domestic methanol market is weak and consolidating. As of 10:00 am on November 14th, the reference price for domestic methanol in Taicang is 2070 yuan/ton. The prices of raw materials such as calcium carbide and methanol are relatively weak, and the cost of BDO is affected by negative factors.
On the demand side, with the restart of maintenance equipment, the main downstream PTMEG industry has also increased its negative operation, while other downstream loads have remained stable, resulting in an overall increase in demand side consumption. However, downstream industries face significant loss pressure, with multiple parties holding contracts to follow suit, and spot purchases being light and negotiated. The demand side of BDO is affected by bearish factors.
In the future forecast, the supply side will experience a slight reduction in supply due to equipment maintenance in Sichuan. There is no significant change in downstream industry demand, and it is necessary to follow up on essential needs but negotiate accordingly. Business analyst BDO predicts that the domestic BDO market is mainly weak and stable.
