Recently, businesses in East China are experiencing significant fluctuations in the price of DMC (dimethyl cyclic siloxane). From 12700 yuan per ton in the first week after the holiday to the current 14100 yuan, the average transaction price of DMC has significantly increased in a short period of time. This price fluctuation not only affects the cost structure of merchants, but also poses a challenge to the stability of the entire market.

DMC is an important raw material for producing silicone adhesive, and its price fluctuations directly affect the cost of downstream products. The contract offers of some individual enterprises show that the prices have generally increased from nearly 12700 yuan/ton to around 14300 yuan/ton. This price increase not only increases the production costs of enterprises, but may also lead to an increase in product prices, thereby affecting market demand.
In addition, silicone adhesive companies have also issued price increase notices, with an increase of 3-5%, which will be implemented from March 8th. This chain reaction puts pressure on the entire industry chain to increase costs. For businesses in East China, how to maintain competitiveness amidst price fluctuations has become an urgent issue to be addressed.
