Weekly market characteristics: the prices of upstream basic raw material products are mixed, among which, fluorite powder, hydrofluoric acid and methane chloride are affected by weak downstream demand, and the prices are all narrowly downward; Methanol and calcium carbide trading turned good, and prices rose in a narrow range; The prices of the remaining raw material products are mainly stable and consolidated. From the perspective of the downstream market, although the production and sales of household air conditioners and automobiles have increased by different ranges, the refrigerant market is affected by the rapid growth of industry supply and limited downstream demand growth.
