Recently, the silicone market has shown a weak trend across the board, with prices of major products falling one after another, and market sentiment generally pessimistic. Last week, the DMC market shifted from a dark decline to a clear decline, with mainstream quotes dropping to 13900-14800 yuan/ton, indicating a severe lack of cost support. The downward trend in prices of raw materials such as silicon metal and methanol has further intensified the bearish sentiment in the organic silicon market. Although individual factories have announced production cuts, downstream demand remains weak, and the escalation of the tariff war has added insult to injury to the market.
Against the backdrop of a general decrease in the prices of organic silicon products, the prices of major products such as 107 rubber and raw rubber have also declined, while the prices of mixed rubber are relatively stable, and the prices of silicone oil have shown a trend of stable to partial decline. However, there is insufficient follow-up from downstream and terminal demand, and the market has a clear bearish mentality, with only a small amount of buying on dips to replenish positions. It is expected that in the short term, the prices of organic silicon products will maintain a weak and stable operation, and there may even be further declines in some areas.
Faced with the current market situation, organic silicon enterprises need to closely monitor market dynamics and flexibly adjust production strategies to cope with changes in market demand. Meanwhile, strengthening cost control, improving product quality and service level are also key factors for enterprises to stand undefeated in fierce market competition. In the future, with the gradual adjustment of market supply and demand, the organic silicon market is expected to usher in new development opportunities.
