Analysis review
From the data monitoring chart of SunSirs, it can be seen that this week (4.9-4.13), the overall domestic propylene glycol market showed a slight and steady upward trend. Some devices in the propylene glycol field had been shut down for maintenance, and the supply of propylene glycol in stock was tightening.
