Polyetheramine is expected to increase both in volume and profit in the second half of the year, and the product boom and performance contribution are expected to improve.
The company's main product polyetheramine products were affected by equipment commissioning in the first half of the year, production capacity was not fully released, while the epidemic affected part of the terminal demand. Since June, the company has fully resumed production of 28000 tons, and the capacity utilization rate has remained high. The production capacity of 3000 tons in the intermittent method has been steadily advanced, and the production and sales volume will be significantly improved in the second half of the year. In addition, due to the expansion of production in the industry, the average price of epoxy propane, the main raw material of polyetheramine, was 11000 yuan in the first half of this year, which dropped sharply compared with the average price of 16700 yuan in 21 years, and further dropped to 9000 yuan since July. The decline in the price of raw materials will further thicken the profit per ton of polyetheramine.
