아황산 수소 나트륨

Recent Market Dynamics Intelligence1. **Price Trends** - The domestic market price of sodium bisulfite is generally stable with minor fluctuations. Due to differences in inventory levels in certain regions, prices have experienced slight variations. The mainstream transaction price for industrial-grade (96% content) is between 2,000 and 2,200 RMB/ton, while food-grade prices are relatively higher, ranging from 2,500 to 2,800 RMB/ton. - Compared to last week, the average fluctuation range for industrial-grade prices is within ±1%, while for food-grade prices, it is around ±0.5%.2. **Supply Situation** - The operating rate of domestic sodium bisulfite producers remains stable, averaging between 70% and 75%. Most enterprises produce according to orders, with inventories at reasonable levels. Some companies hold moderate finished goods inventory, but there is no large-scale accumulation. - No new production capacity has been added to the market recently. Changes in supply are primarily driven by adjustments in existing production.3. **Demand Situation** - Downstream industry demand remains steady. In the paper industry, where sodium bisulfite is used as a bleaching agent, demand is supported by a slight increase in paper production, though growth is limited. - In the food processing sector, demand for food-grade sodium bisulfite remains stable, mainly used for preservation and anti-corrosion in products such as wine and candied fruits. Demand is less affected by seasonal factors. - Demand in the water treatment industry is also stable, primarily for removing residual chlorine from water, with no significant recent changes.4. **Cost Factors** - The price of raw material sulfur has remained relatively stable, hovering between 1,000 and 1,100 RMB/ton, providing steady cost support for sodium bisulfite. - The price of caustic soda has seen a slight increase, exerting some upward pressure on production costs. However, enterprises have partially offset this pressure by optimizing production processes.5. **Import and Export Situations** - Import volumes are low recently, mainly because domestic capacity meets market demand and imported products lack a clear price advantage. - Export orders remain stable, primarily directed to Southeast and South Asian regions. Exports account for approximately 10%–15% of domestic production.Analysis and Judgment1. **Factors Contributing to Price Stability**: The stable operating rates of suppliers, reasonable inventory levels, and steady downstream demand have maintained a balanced supply-demand relationship, which is the primary factor supporting price stability. Additionally, minimal fluctuation in raw material prices has further reinforced this stability.2. **Potential Risks**: Although the current supply-demand balance is intact, unexpected growth or decline in downstream demand, or significant fluctuations in raw material prices, could disrupt this equilibrium and lead to price volatility. Furthermore, changes in environmental policies may impact enterprise production and supply.Forecast1. **Short-Term (1–2 Weeks)**: The market price of sodium bisulfite is expected to remain stable with minor fluctuations. Industrial-grade prices will likely fluctuate between 1,980 and 2,220 RMB/ton, while food-grade prices will range from 2,480 to 2,820 RMB/ton.2. **Medium-Term (1–3 Months)**: If downstream demand remains unchanged and raw material prices stay stable, market prices will likely hover around current levels. However, if downstream industries engage in centralized procurement or if raw material supply tightens, prices may experience noticeable upward or downward movements.3. **Long-Term (3–6 Months)**: With increasingly stringent environmental requirements, some small-scale enterprises failing to meet environmental standards may be phased out, leading to further consolidation of market supply. This could provide upward support for prices. Additionally, if new application areas emerge in downstream industries, driving increased demand, prices may also rise.
