Therefore, currently, n-butanol factories are mainly actively offering discounts for shipments, and the overall transaction focus of n-butanol is constantly moving downwards. Some factories have quoted prices of n-butanol below 8000 yuan/ton. As of March 6th, the domestic market price of n-butanol in Shandong region is around 7900-8300 yuan/ton.

 

Future analysis

 

At present, the overall supply level of n-butanol in China has improved, with factories mainly maintaining low inventory shipments and downstream users mainly restocking on dips. The overall market transactions are hovering at the low end. According to the n-butanol data analyst from Business Society, in the short term, the domestic n-butanol market will mainly adjust and operate within a narrow range, and the specific trend still needs to pay more attention to changes in supply and demand news.
