In March 2026, China's maleic anhydride export volume reached 30,100 tons, and the cumulative exports for the first quarter totaled 85,800 tons, indicating robust international demand. The rise in export data suggests strong overseas demand for maleic anhydride, which may reduce domestic supply and consequently drive up spot prices. Based on the current supply-demand landscape, this trend is favorable for spot market conditions, supporting upward price potential.
