2、 Market analysis

This week, the refrigerant R22 market was weak and stable, the price of raw hydrofluoric acid was weak and stable to about 11780, chloroform fluctuated and rose to 4375 yuan / ton within the week, and the cost support was gradually strengthened, but the export market did not improve. Therefore, under the unilateral support of cost, the enterprise still did not adjust the price, and continued to quote last week and wait-and-see the market. By the end of the week, according to the data of the business agency, the R22 market quotation was mostly in the range of 16500-18000 yuan / ton, about 16800-17000 yuan / ton in Shandong, about 16000-17000 yuan / ton in Zhejiang, about 16500-17000 yuan / ton in Hunan and about 7500 yuan / ton in Guangzhou, with little price fluctuation in various places.

This week, the price of refrigerant R134a fell to about 25000 yuan. The high-end price in the market continued to decline, with a decrease of 4.55% during the week. The price of raw hydrofluoric acid is weak and stable to about 11780, the support of cost side is weakened, and the export and domestic sales are not smooth. Due to the impact of public health events in many places, the demand is reduced, the delivery of refrigerant enterprises is blocked, and the mentality is negative. By the end of the week, according to the data of the business agency, the market quotation of R134a was in the range of 24000-30000 yuan / ton, that of Zhejiang was about 24000-25000 yuan / ton, that of Hunan was about 24500-25000 yuan / ton, that of Jiangsu was about 26000-30000 yuan / ton, and that of Guangzhou was about 25000 yuan / ton.

In terms of raw materials, on January 14, the price trend of domestic hydrofluoric acid market was temporarily stable, the operation of on-site devices was stable, the supply of goods was normal, and the market price of anhydrous hydrofluoric acid fell. Recently, the price of fluorite was stable, which had a certain support impact on the hydrofluoric acid market. In addition, the operating rate of downstream refrigerant industry was still at a low level, and the actual demand was at a low level, With regard to the Limited procurement of hydrofluoric acid and the recent downturn of refrigerant market, it is expected that the market price of hydrofluoric acid may decline slightly.

On January 13, the reference price of chloroform was 4712.50, an increase of 7.71% compared with that on January 1 (4375.00). The refrigerant unit was started at a high load, which just needed support for chloroform; However, the start-up of domestic methane chloride units is gradually normal, and the supply side of trichloromethane is improved; The price of raw materials rebounded slightly in the short term, which supported chloroform to a certain extent. The market offer gradually rose. In the short term, the demand for trichloromethane still has support, and it is expected that the trichloromethane market will remain high in the later stage.

3、 Future forecast
