IV. Market Outlook
Last week, the domestic isopropanol market rose significantly. The increase in raw material acetone prices provided strong cost support for manufacturers. Some suppliers actively raised their quotes, boosting holder sentiment and driving the transaction focus higher. Downstream factories remained cautious in procurement, with most real orders driven by rigid demand. Today, the isopropanol market is expected to maintain range-bound consolidation. Key factors to watch include downstream demand follow-through and raw material market trends.
