Market Analysis

Updated:2026-09▲ Up this month
This Month's Trend

In September n-butanol was lifted by propylene cost and downstream plasticizer/butyl-acrylate demand, East China prices moving from about 7,930 to 8,860 RMB/t — a weekly gain of about 12% and roughly +49% YoY.

Key Drivers
  • Brent above USD 100/bbl kept propylene high, strongly supporting n-butanol cost
  • Downstream butyl acrylate and DBP plasticizers improved on 'Golden September' demand
  • Maintenance at some units tightened spot availability
Outlook

Short term firm; medium term, if propylene retreats and new capacity is released, prices may ease from highs. Lock volumes as needed and watch timing.
