1 Market Highlights

Black silicon carbide
Driven by the recovering market demand and the firm production cost, most producers raised their prices for black silicon carbide 98%min this month. Due to weak market demand but high raw material prices, most producers firmed their prices for black silicon carbide 88%min.

Owing to the soft market demand and the appreciating of US dollars against Chinese Yuan, most exporters lowered their prices to compete for orders this month.

Green silicon carbide
Despite the weak market demand, most producers insisted on their prices this month supported by the high prices of petroleum coke.

Most exporters lowered their prices this month given that the overseas buyers' demand remained soft and the exchange rate of US dollars against Chinese Yuan kept increasing.

2 Economy and Policy

2.1 Henan to build important refractory material production base in China
According to the Action Plan on Restructuring Material Industry of Henan publicized by Henan government recently, the province aims to become an important refractory material production base in China by cultivating local industries covering functional refractory materials, high-efficiency thermal insulation material, key refractory materials used in hydrogen metallurgy, and high-temperature protection suit used in military and emerging industries.
No new projects of refractory factory would be launched this month in Henan.
