Analysis: Today, the pure benzene market price in China is operating with a weak stability. There is not much change in international crude oil futures. The decline in U.S. WTI crude oil futures does not provide significant support to pure benzene, and confidence in the spot market for pure benzene is average. Most local refining enterprises in Shandong are maintaining stable prices, with a clear wait-and-see attitude among those with rigid demand. It is expected that in the short term, the pure benzene market in China will experience minor fluctuations, with actual transactions negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
