Weekly Outlook for the Domestic Fluorite Wet Powder Market (September 14, 2026)

I. Key Focus Points

1. The market for 97% wet fluorite powder across all regions shows weak supply and demand, yet strong upward price momentum persists.
2. For September, the mainstream contract delivered price for anhydrous hydrofluoric acid (AHF) is referenced at RMB 15,050–15,200/ton, while the spot market delivered price is referenced at RMB 15,500–16,000/ton.
3. Major producers of refrigerant R32 maintain firm offers, with operating rates hovering around 40–50%.

Core Logic: Market sentiment for fluorine chemical feedstocks has recently cooled. Although shutdowns by major northern producers have stimulated the market, they are unlikely to alter the fundamental contradiction of oversupply.

III. Market Outlook

Last week, the domestic market for 97% fluorite concentrate powder was characterized by widespread wait-and-see sentiment. Market atmosphere softened compared to earlier periods. Most downstream sectors had already completed their phased restocking, leading to divergent views among traders. Some believe that downstream consumption remains driven by rigid demand and inventory drawdowns, with no significant pre-winter stockpiling activities; therefore, although there is an expectation of slight price loosening, the downside space is limited. Others argue that current prices represent a peak that may not be seen again soon, prompting them to actively sell off inventory.

Current spot delivered price references by region are as follows:

• Inner Mongolia: RMB 3,300–3,500/ton
• Zhejiang: RMB 3,500–3,600/ton
• Jiangxi & Fujian: RMB 3,750–3,800/ton
• Shandong: RMB 3,550–3,600/ton
• Northwest China: RMB 3,400–3,450/ton
• Henan & Anhui: RMB 3,400–3,450/ton

As of press time, the mainstream delivered price for domestic 97% wet fluorite powder ranges from RMB 3,300 to 3,800 per ton.
