Domestic liquid caustic soda market continues to rise

 This week, the domestic liquid caustic soda market continued its previous upward trend. Among them, the order price of 32% liquid caustic soda purchased by alumina enterprises in North China has been raised twice in a row, with a cumulative increase of 100 yuan/ton, supporting the rise in the price of liquid caustic soda in the local and surrounding areas. The liquid caustic soda enterprises in East China have relatively good foreign trade exports, and some domestic trade users stock up before the holiday, driving the local liquid caustic market price to rise significantly. The production of domestic liquid caustic soda plants is normal, and there are devices that shut down for maintenance and resume production. The output of liquid caustic soda in some areas is slightly lower, the enterprise inventory is in a reasonable state, and the market supply is sufficient. With the approaching of the National Day holiday, some alkali-consuming users with a large amount of alkali stock up in advance, and the enthusiasm for downstream purchases has increased. The liquid alkali market transaction pace has accelerated compared with last week, which is one of the main reasons for supporting the upward trend of liquid alkali. In addition, the export of liquid caustic soda foreign trade enterprises in my country is relatively good, and some enterprises have already signed orders for November, and the pressure of domestic trade has eased, which also supports the rise of the domestic trade market to a certain extent.
