March 6th News: On March 6th, Longjiang Chemical raised the price of phenol by 400 yuan to 8,800 yuan per ton, effective from the 6th. The company's 350,000-ton-per-year phenol-ketone plant is operating at full capacity, with phenol prioritized for internal use. External sales are mainly based on contracts, and inventory levels are low. Chempricehub's analysis of phenol, with a bullish-bearish score of 2: The price of phenol has been significantly increased by 400 yuan per ton to 8,800 yuan per ton. The company's plant is operating at full capacity but prioritizes internal use, with external sales mainly based on contracts and low inventory, indicating tight supply and strong demand. This constitutes a significant positive factor for the spot price of phenol, and prices are expected to continue rising in the short term. Bisphenol A, with a bullish-bearish score of 1: As the primary raw material for bisphenol A, the price increase of phenol will raise the production cost of bisphenol A. Full-capacity operation of the plant may increase output, but demand-side factors are not mentioned, leading to high uncertainty. Therefore, this has a generally positive impact on the spot price of bisphenol A, with prices likely to rise moderately under cost support.
