This week, the downstream demand for white fused alumina continued to pick up, the spot supply in the market was tightening. As the price of raw material alumina continued to be stable, so the price of white fused alumina remained stable. It is expected that in the coming week, the spot supply of white fused alumina may be further tightened, and the price may continue to run firm.
This week, due to the strong support of production costs and there is no inventory pressure on companies, brown fused alumina prices remained stable. Although the price of brown corundum has been rising, the actual price increase has been facing resistance. However, recently, due to the central environmental supervision team's new round of inspection in Henan, Shanxi and other places, which may have an impact on the production of local brown fused alumina enterprises, the price of brown fused alumina may rise accordingly.
This week, due to high production costs, the price of black silicon carbide continued to remain stable. It is expected that in the coming week, the price of black silicon carbide may be supported by costs and will continue to operate steadily.
This week, although the price of green silicon carbide blocks has risen slightly, it is difficult for the price of silicon carbide to rise due to the sluggish demand from downstream abrasive companies. It is expected that in the coming week, as the company's inventory is further consumed, the price of green silicon carbide may show an upward trend.
