Introduction: The price of polyester civilian yarn has been rising all the way under the support of international crude oil and polyester costs, while polyester industrial yarn has not increased much due to the influence of main raw materials and the weak demand for downstream industries, and has fluctuated downward. The same is polyester, civilian and industrial Silk has stepped out of the trend of two levels of differentiation.

Starting from May, the market of polyester civilian yarn (hereinafter referred to as polyester filament yarn) and industrial yarn market will become polarized. According to the statistics of Longzhong Information, as of July 26, DTY150D/48F of polyester civil yarn (hereinafter referred to as polyester filament) closed at 9100 yuan/ton, an increase of 6.12% from the beginning of the year, and ordinary high-strength polyester industrial yarn 1000D/192F closed at 8500 yuan / ton, a decrease of 3.41% from the beginning of the year. It is also a polyester product. The market trend gradually diverged in May. Polyester industrial yarns fell all the way and reached a new low for the year, while polyester filaments fluctuated and rose with the help of the cost side. After rushing to the high level of the year Slight drop.

From a cost point of view, with the help of international crude oil in early July and the increase in demand in the peak season of gasoline and diesel consumption in the United States, PX and polymerization costs have shown an upward trend after experiencing shocks. The price of bright slices, the main raw material of industrial yarns, fluctuated little and remained stable, with limited support for polyester industrial yarns.

From the perspective of downstream demand, the start-up rate of the chemical fiber weaving industry remained at around 60%-63% from June to July, and the summer demand side entered the off-season of the industry, but the downstream chemical fiber weaving start-up did not change much, and the demand was mostly rigid, forming support for polyester filaments , while the downstream of polyester industrial yarn is mostly in the field of industrial textiles, and there is currently no concentrated production reduction in the downstream. The cycle is relatively long, one month longer, and there are many users who have prepared for three months, half a year, or even a year. However, the current demand continues to be weak and the off-season of traditional industries, downstream stocking is cautious, and the stocking cycle is relatively rigid at about half a month. The demand for polyester industrial yarn.
The difference in cost boost and the difference in stocking habits on the demand side make the trend of polyester civilian yarn and industrial yarn products diverge significantly after entering the traditional off-season.
