On July 24, the hydrofluoric acid commodity index was 109.35, unchanged from yesterday, down 22.13% from the peak of 140.43 points in the cycle (2018-02-21), and up 104.05% from the low of 53.59 points on November 30, 2016. (Note: Period refers to 2011-09-01 to date)

According to statistics, the domestic market price trend of hydrofluoric acid was temporarily stable on July 24. Up to now, the domestic market price of hydrofluoric acid was 12050 yuan/ton, and the domestic start-up rate of hydrofluoric acid was less than 60%. Enterprises reflected that the current spot supply of hydrofluoric acid was sufficient, and the recent market situation was general. Recently, due to poor downstream demand, some hydrofluoric acid was in short supply.

Domestic hydrofluoric acid market price declined, spot supply is normal, but the demand situation is poor, hydrofluoric acid market price trend is temporarily stable.

Recent downstream refrigerant products start at a low level, the upstream fluorite and hydrofluoric acid demand is poor, the recent downstream refrigerant trading market is general, hydrofluoric acid products price shocks. Recent downstream refrigerant market transactions have improved, R22 refrigerant plant surface started at 60%, R22 market device start-up rate is temporarily stable, the main production enterprise bulk water factory offer price is between 17500-18500 yuan/ton, but the production enterprise does not have bulk water spot, mainly a small number of cylinders shipment. In addition, the actual demand side of the market has not changed much, and the delivery market has increased. The domestic market price trend of R134a is not good, the start-up rate of production enterprises remains low, the refrigerant market demand is general, and the manufacturers mainly export their products. However, the on-site transaction price does not change much. Businessmen purchase on demand. Recently, due to the normal supply of goods and poor downstream demand, the market price trend of hydrofluoric acid is temporarily stable.

Refrigerant field turnover is poor, refrigerant industry equipment start-up rate remains low, for upstream hydrofluoric acid market demand is limited, hydrofluoric acid spot supply is normal, Business Analyst Chen Ling believes that the hydrofluoric acid market may be slightly lower.
