In the early part of last week, difficulties in scheduling pickups from the main production facility in Central China, coupled with the continuous upward trend in raw material ethanol prices, led to a rebound in ethyl acetate prices. Additionally, persistent bidding premiums at the main production facility in Shandong drove up spot prices. By the end of last week, the premium trend gradually stabilized, and the downstream replenishment momentum weakened. Ethyl actate is expected to be stable this week. Attention should be paid to the trends of raw materials such as acetic acid and ethanol, and replenishment should be based on rigid demand.
Last week, the price of n-propyl acetate remained high. However, as the price of raw material propanol fell at the end of the week and factories completed their previously planned production schedules, the price of n-propyl acetate began to decline. It is expected that prices will adjust within a certain range this week, with a tendency for weak consolidation. The price of n-butyl acetate remained relatively stable last week, without fluctuating in tandem with raw material prices. In North China, there was little change in prices, and it is anticipated that the market will continue to operate stably this week.
