POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics October 2023: Prices broadly lower as feedstocks take cue from softer crude oil / November prices expected to ease on softer demand	13.11.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics September 2023: Expensive crude oil pushes polymer prices / National holiday paralyses demand in October / Unchanged to falling quotations expected	13.10.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics August 2023: Prices mostly higher as feedstock prices firm, supply slows / Only PA 6.6, ABS lower amid higher supply or lower feedstock cost / Seasonal demand to support September prices	11.09.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics July 2023: Weak demand pushes PA 6.6, PMMA, PBT prices lower / Other grades supported by higher feedstock prices or higher demand / August seen bullish	14.08.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics June 2023: Prices down across the board / Feedstocks mostly lower / Lackluster buying as market enters summer lull / July seen softer	13.07.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics May 2023: Ample supply, weak demand depress / Only PMMA, PBT firmer as feedstock costs firm / Downward trend to continue in June	16.06.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics April 2023: Prices of most thermoplastics lower due to ample supply and low demand / Only PMMA and PBT prices up / May prices seen as mixed	12.05.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics March 2023: Weak domestic demand weighs on prices / Further markdowns in April likely, except for PA 6, POM / Capacity utilisation of production plants still low in many cases	12.04.2023
POLYMER PRICES China engineering thermoplastics February 2023: Prices mostly sideways to lower / Post-holiday demand recovery slower than expected / Feedstock prices higher, BDO's massive jump drives PBT up sharply / Outlook mixed	15.03.2023
