With the rise in the price of raw material benzene and the hype over the maintenance of the phenol-acetone plant in Yangzhou next month, acetone has followed suit and risen, with a cumulative increase of 400 yuan per ton.
The rapid increase has curbed the enthusiasm of downstream buyers to take delivery. Coupled with the accumulation of inventory at ports, downstream buyers are generally cautious in taking delivery. However, the current price of acetone is relatively low, and there are still many uncertainties in the market. Purchases can be made based on inventory and downstream orders, with caution as the main principle.
