Analysis review
The price of domestic anhydrous hydrofluoric acid has stopped falling and recovered. On the one hand, it is strongly supported by the raw material market, and on the other hand, the downstream refrigerant market has risen.
The market price of fluorite as hydrofluoric acid raw material has risen. As of August 8, the domestic fluorite price was 2,868.75 RMB/ton. Recently, the domestic spot supply of fluorite was tight. In addition, the logistics in some regions was limited, and the spot was tight. The domestic fluorite price trend continued to rise.

Market outlook
The fluorine chemical industry has improved, the price of raw material fluorite has risen, the price of sulfuric acid raw material has risen, and the market of downstream refrigerant products has risen slightly. In addition, the domestic supply of hydrofluoric acid has been slightly strained recently, and the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain has been favorable and supported. Hydrofluoric acid analysts from SunSirs believe that the price trend of hydrofluoric acid market may rise slightly in the later period.
