June 17th, according to news,

According to the commodity market analysis system, as of June 17, 2026, the reference price for n-butanol in Shandong, China, is 6,833 CNY/ton. Compared to June 12, 2026 (when the reference price for n-butanol was 6,800 CNY/ton), the price has increased by 33 yuan, a price increase of 0.49%.

I. Review of Price Trends

From the data monitoring system, it can be seen that in mid-June, the n-butanol market in Shandong first stabilized and then slightly increased. Some n-butanol suppliers in the Shandong region slightly raised their selling prices by 30-100 CNY/ton. On June 17, the n-butanol market price in Shandong was around 6,800-6,900 CNY/ton.

II. Analysis of Core Influencing Factors

On the supply and demand front: Currently, the supply of n-butanol remains stable, while downstream demand has slightly increased. After digesting their existing raw material inventories, downstream users are experiencing an overall recovery in demand. The supply-demand dynamic has improved marginally, providing some upward momentum to market conditions.

Market Sentiment: In the early part of the month, the n-butanol market in China was mostly in a consolidation phase. There were expectations for a rise in prices within the market, and some traders held back from selling, which contributed to a slight increase in prices.

3. Future Market Forecast

Currently, the trading atmosphere for n-butanol in the Chinese market is moderate. In the short term, n-butanol prices are expected to continue fluctuating within the current range. It is necessary to pay close attention to whether there will be any ongoing positive developments, the actual purchasing follow-up strength from downstream, fluctuations in upstream raw materials, and inventory levels in the market.
