Future expectations

 

The data analyst of Business Society’s octanol product believes that in January, the equipment production of isooctanol enterprises was at a high level, and with the addition of new production capacity, the shortage of isooctanol supply was alleviated, resulting in significant downward pressure on isooctanol; High profits, active downstream production, and post holiday inventory replenishment and pre Spring Festival stocking have provided significant support for demand for isooctanol. In the future, the supply shortage of isooctanol has been alleviated, with strong demand support. It is expected that the price of isooctanol will fluctuate and stabilize in the future.
