Allyl Chloride: Weekly Increase of Approximately US$60 per Tonne
The Shandong allyl chloride market rose by approximately US$60 per tonne over the week to October 15, supported by stronger feedstock costs and reduced supply.
OilChem’s October 15 market update indicates a weekly allyl chloride increase equivalent to approximately US$60 per tonne. The report attributes the increase to stronger raw-material costs and reduced supply.
The dollar increase is an approximate conversion using the October 15 USD/CNY reference rate of 6.6913 published by Investing.com. It represents a change in a regional market indicator, not a Zibo Yixiao quotation or a change in delivered export cost.
Relevance to our products — editorial assessment: this is directly relevant to allyl chloride purchasing discussions. Buyers comparing offers should align the observation date, grade, packaging and delivery basis before drawing a price comparison.
Possible Market Impact: Next 1–3 Months
Outlook for the next 1–3 months: China — allyl chloride quotations may remain firm if feedstock costs stay elevated and supply remains reduced. A recovery in plant output or weaker downstream buying could limit or reverse the increase.
Overseas markets — higher Chinese procurement costs could feed into future export offers, but freight, currency movements and local demand will determine the delivered impact. This price movement alone does not establish a shortage or a worldwide price increase.
