[Coking plant cuts production, carbon black market hits record high] On September 15th, the domestic carbon black market hit a record high. As of yesterday, the mainstream N330 carbon black quotation in Shandong was 11,500-12,000 yuan/ton, a sharp increase of 3,650 yuan/ton from the beginning of September, an increase of 45%. Both the unit price and the weekly increase have set a new high in industry history. This wave of surge in carbon black is mainly caused by the collective price increase of upstream coal raw materials. Affected by the tight supply of coking coal in Shanxi, coking coal prices continue to rise. Many coking plants have lost money and reduced production, which has directly caused a shortage of coal tar supplies.
