October 13th News
As of October 12, 2026, epichlorohydrin is trading in a choppy range. The 5-day and 10-day moving averages remain flat, while the 20-day moving average has turned positive. Signals from the various timeframes have yet to converge, so no clear directional trend has emerged. Prices are at the median level over the 60-day and three-month horizons, and on the one-year cycle they sit in the mid-to-low range, suggesting limited downside with some upside potential. On the cost side, elevated propylene and hydrogen peroxide prices provide support; however, downstream epoxy resin markets remain weak, limiting demand-side momentum. Amid ongoing short–long balance, the market is expected to continue fluctuating.
