As the new year is coming, the silicone market is not reassuring at all. It can be said that it is in deep water. Yesterday, the metal silicon market continued to decline, with a daily decline of 1000 yuan / ton. At present, the quotation of chemical grade metal silicon 421# Huangpu port is 24500-26300 yuan / ton. The overall silicone market is intertwined. The quotation of some monomer factories fell again, down 800 yuan / ton. Most of the other monomer factories do not offer for the time being, and the actual order is negotiated. On December 9, the mainstream quotation in DMC market was 25200-26500 yuan / ton. The local transaction price was 25000 yuan / ton, but after a strong stimulus this week, the market showed signs of stabilization.


This week, with the deepening of the decline in the silicone market, the vapor phase silica market is also "doomed". The rhythm of manufacturers' profit giving remains unchanged, and the market offer continues to decline. Now the mainstream quotation in the vapor phase silica market is 27000-33000 yuan / ton. Although the quotations of silicon tetrachloride and silicon tetrachloride are basically stable, the bearish mentality on the demand side is strong, the rhythm of real offer trading in the gas-phase silica market is slow, and there are bidding phenomena among manufacturers. In addition, in terms of operating rate, new capacity is put into the market this month, some units are planned to be overhauled at the end of the month, the overall operating load is relatively stable, and the pressure at the supply end is still large.


On the demand side, after the sharp decline of raw rubber, the rubber mixing plant has made up an appropriate amount of positions this week, but the manufacturers are still bearish about the future market. In order to avoid the subsequent decline risk, the fast in and fast out operation will be adopted, and the rubber mixing plant will increase its horsepower production. From this point of view, the consumption of gaseous silica will be improved to a certain extent. However, due to the less optimistic expectation of the overall Silicone Market and limited short-term benefits, silicone rubber manufacturers keep purchasing fumed silica on demand. To sum up, it is expected that the gas phase white carbon black will be weak in the next week.
