Nantong Xingchen's BPA plant is operating normally, but spot sales volume is limited. The price has been raised by 100 yuan to 8,500 yuan/ton today, indicating tight supply and strong demand, which directly benefits BPA spot prices. The significant price increase reflects bullish market sentiment and may drive short-term prices further upward.
Epoxy Resin
Bull-Bear Score: 1
BPA is a key raw material for epoxy resin, and its price increase will raise the production cost of epoxy resin, indirectly pushing up spot prices.
