Yesterday, the domestic isopropyl alcohol market maintained range-bound consolidation. Although raw material costs provided support, demand remained relatively moderate, resulting in minimal fluctuation in suppliers' offer centers. Actual transactions relied heavily on negotiation, with general trading sentiment and flat overall volume. Today, the isopropyl alcohol market is expected to remain in a stalemate transition phase; monitor raw material market trends and demand follow-through.
