Liquid chlorine market weakness continues

Recently, the liquid chlorine market continued to be sluggish

Zhang Jin, a chlor-alkali analyst at Zhongyu Information, said that the liquid chlorine market was dominated by negative factors on the demand side, which led to a downward trend in the domestic liquid chlorine market in July.

At the same time, because the overall consumption of liquid chlorine downstream is relatively small, and the consumption of propylene oxide and methane chloride is not large, the market's consumption of chlorine gas is insufficient, and it cannot form a support for the consumption of liquid chlorine.

Baichuan Yingfu liquid chlorine analyst Wang Lijuan believes that from July to August, it is in the off-season for downstream production of chlorine consumption, and there are many environmental inspections

In the peak season of "Golden Nine and Silver Ten", the demand for liquid chlorine may improve, and the price of liquid chlorine is expected to rise

　　Capacity is expected to increase

Liquid chlorine is a by-product in the process of preparing caustic soda.

Zhou Chao, a liquid chlorine analyst at Zhuochuang Information, said that more chlor-alkali production capacity is planned to be put into operation in the second half of this year, and more liquid chlorine production capacity will be released

　　According to industry insiders, it is expected that the supply and demand pattern in key areas of the liquid chlorine market will tighten

　　"It is expected that the overall transaction atmosphere of the liquid chlorine market will be light in the second half of the year.

　　Reposting phenomenon is weakened

　　Ankang, a chlor-alkali analyst at Longzhong Information, said that in the second half of the year, the state will not restrict production in the chlor-alkali industry "one size fits all" unless manufacturers stop unexpectedly to reduce production

　　Industry insiders said that there will be no major changes in the supply of liquid chlorine industry

　　In the second half of the year, there was no significant change in demand for liquid chlorine

　　At the same time, due to the difficulty of obvious improvement in downstream demand for chlorine consumption and the poor performance of profitability, it is expected that most of the newly added production capacity will still have a certain probability of delay or the possibility of low operating rate

　　It is worth noting that due to the special chemical properties of liquid chlorine, manufacturers cannot store it.
