The raw material butadiene fell sharply, and the cost was short of the impact of NBR. According to the monitoring of SunSirs as of September 10, the price of butadiene was 9,117 RMB/ ton, down 6.27% from 9,727 RMB/ ton at the beginning of the week.
SunSirs NBR analysts believe that the cost side is bad, but the market supply is relatively tight. In addition, there is still rigid support for demand. It is expected that the high level of China NBR market will be strong in the short term.
