Butadiene
In June, the domestic butadiene market fluctuated violently. The reason for the price fluctuation of butadiene market this month lies in the sudden accident of Shanghai Petrochemical Plant, which caused the butadiene plant to stop and the newly-built plant to be postponed again. The news boosted the mentality of the operators. However, the follow-up of the overall downstream demand is still weak, and the supply of goods in Northeast China is continuously exported, and the spot on the market is filled, so there is no favorable support for the supply and demand side.

Styrene
Styrene market rose first and then declined in June. Driven by the rise of crude oil and the new high of pure benzene in the first ten days, styrene also hit a high of 11,500 CNY/ton in recent two years. In the latter half of the year, with the high price pressure gradually becoming apparent, crude oil fluctuates at a high level and in a wide range. Pure benzene has resistance above 10,000 yuan. The motivation in terms of cost is reduced.
