Last week, the DMC (Dimethyl Cyclosiloxane Mixture) market prices remained stable. The simultaneous decline in metal silicon and methanol prices intensified market观望 and bearish sentiment to some extent. However, supported by the delivery of pre-sale orders, inventory pressure for monomer manufacturers was effectively controlled, and market quotations remained stable, with some local companies even raising their prices slightly.

Market Dynamics Analysis

1. Raw Material Price Fluctuations: The continuous decline in metal silicon and methanol prices heightened concerns about raw material costs, further strengthening market观望 sentiment.
2. Controllable Inventory for Monomer Manufacturers: The delivery of pre-sale orders provided inventory support for monomer manufacturers, effectively alleviating inventory pressure, and market quotations remained stable overall.
3. Downstream Entering Inventory Clearance Phase: Following the end of last week’s phased stocking, downstream enterprises entered an inventory clearance phase, and the market’s new order transaction atmosphere gradually cooled.
4. Stable Organic Silicone Product Prices: Last week, in addition to DMC, prices of silicone gum, 107 gum, silicone rubber, and silicone oil all maintained stable operation.

Market Price Range

Last week, the mainstream quotation range for DMC was 11,400-12,000 yuan/ton, with the market remaining stable overall.

Market Outlook

After last week’s phased stocking, the market’s new order transaction atmosphere cooled this week, and raw material DMC prices are expected to maintain weak stability. Downstream and end users are still in the inventory clearance phase, and it is anticipated that organic silicone product prices will show minor fluctuations within a stable overall trend in the short term. Market participants should closely monitor raw material price changes and downstream demand dynamics to respond to market fluctuations.

Expert Opinions

Market analysts commented: “The current DMC market maintains stable operation, but the decline in raw material prices has intensified market观望 sentiment. In the short term, organic silicone product prices are expected to remain stable with minor fluctuations. Market participants should remain cautious and flexibly adjust their procurement and sales strategies.”

Conclusion

Last week, DMC prices maintained stable operation, market观望 sentiment intensified, and organic silicone product prices are expected to show minor fluctuations in the short term. Although the decline in raw material prices has impacted market sentiment to some extent, inventory pressure for monomer manufacturers is controllable, and the market remains stable overall. In the future, market participants should closely monitor raw material prices and downstream demand changes to respond flexibly to market fluctuations.
