Domestic price of R134a to remain stable in Dec. 2012

In Nov. 2012, the price of 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (R134a) reached USD4,019/t, remaining stable month on month and up by 5.04% compared with that in Sept. 2012, about USD3,826 (the lowest price this year). The price increase of R134a since Sept. 2012 was mainly influenced by the increasing production cost and improving demand from automobile industry, according to CCM’s December Issue of China Fluoride Materials Monthly Report.

                                                          

First, the production cost of R134a has been continuously increasing. Trichloroethylene (TCE) and anhydrous hydrofluoric acid (AHF) are the main raw materials of R134a. From Oct. 2012, both the prices of TCE and AHF kept increasing. The price of TCE in Nov. 2012 reached USD900/t, increasing by 10.17% compared with that in Sept. 2012. On the other hand, the price of AHF has also been continuously increasing from Oct. 2012 and reached USD1,119/t in Nov. 2012, increasing by 7.11% compared with that in Sept. 2012.

Second, domestic demand for R134a from automobile industry continuously increased. As the substitute of dichlorodifluoromethane (R12), HFC-134a has become the most widely applied middle to low-temperature refrigerant with environment friendliness, mainly used in vehicle air conditioning. According to the statistics from China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), the output and sales of automobile in Nov. 2012 increased by 10.99% and 11.52% respectively month on month.

It is estimated that the price of R134a will remain stable in Dec. 2012.

 

Firstly, the production cost of R134a will keep stable. Influenced by the declining price of liquid chlorine, the main raw material of TEC, the price of TEC will drop in Dec. 2012. However, thanks to the price increase of fluorite (the raw material of AHF production), the price of AHF will keep advancing.

 

Secondly, the demand for R134a from automobile industry will keep stable. According to the CAAM, Dec. is the traditional sales peak of private cars in China, so the sales of automobile in Dec. 2012 will keep upward. However, the working days in Dec. 2012 is less than those of last month, thus it's estimated that the output of automobile will keep stable in Dec. 2012.

Average Price of Anhydrous Hydrogen Fluoride Remains Low in China

Domestic average price of AHF was about USD1,253/t in April 2012, down 2.93% month on month. Actually, its price has been decreasing continuously for eleven months since June 2011 when its price was USD1851/t, according to CCM’s May Issue of China Fluoride Materials Monthly Report.

There was three reasons contributed to the price decrease. First, the price of fluorite, a key material of AHF, decreased after July 2011 and fluctuated from USD310/t to USD360/t during the end of 2011 till April 2012. Second, affected by the fatigued market of downstream products, especially the fluoride refrigerants and fluoropolymers, the demand and consumption of AHF declined after the second half of 2011. Third, domestic AHF witnessed oversupply currently, and thus manufacturers of AHF competed with each other intensely.

 

In a word, the previous boom of fluoride industry has been calm down. There was a policy, A notice about adopting comprehensive measures on the control over mining and production of refractory clay and fluoride, issued by General Office of the State Council on Jan. 2, 2010, restricting Chinese fluorite mining volume and causing speculation in fluoride industry which leads to price increase of all products. At the same time, great demand from domestic and oversea markets for fluoride products also brings about price increase. However, the previous boom of fluoride industry seems to have vanished. The prices of the main downstream products for AHF such as aluminum fluoride, R22(Difluorochloromethane), PTFE(Polytetrafluoro ethylene) and R134a(1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane), remain low and some of their manufacturers were bearish on the market.

Forecast shows that if there is without any new supportive factors and merely depends on the weak demand of current market, the future price of AHF will not raise in the next two months.

The average price of fluorite was about USD343/t in April 2012, up 0.93% month on month.

The average price of HCFC-22 was about USD1,987/t in April 2012, down 6.45% month on month.

The sagging demand of HCFC-22, one of the largest consumption of AHF, affects the most on the price decrease of AHF. According to the seasonal peak demand of fluoride refrigerants, the price of HCFC-22 should have been raising after March 2012, but actually the price was decreasing. The unexpected price decrease makes fluoride refrigerant manufacturers reduce their production-operating rate and their raw material purchase of AHF. In conclusion, lower demand of HCFC-22 directly leads to the lower price of AHF.

The average price of HFC-134a was about USD6,905/t in April 2012, down 0.25% month on month.

The previous rebounded price of HFC-134a seems to be sagging again. The price of HFC-134a had a little increase from Dec. 2011 to March 2012, mainly due to the price increase of trichloroethylene, another raw material of HFC-134a, in the recent few months. However, the market of HFC-134a is still not so optimistic and thus will not help AHF price to recover.

The average price of PTFE dispersion resin was about USD19,607/t in April 2012, down 6.53% month on month.

Generally speaking, AHF lacks supportive factors for its price now, so its price will probably keep low in the next two months.

Chinese Fluoropolymer Industry Attracts More and More Foreign Investment

The Chinese government has promulgated some policies and legislations, such as the Guided Catalogue for Industrial Structure Adjustment (2011) and the 12th Five-year Development Plan of China Fluorine Chemical Industry (2011-2015), to encourage the development of fluoropolymer industry in China. CCM International’s April Issue of China Fluoride Materials Monthly Report also indicates that driven by the booming market, resource advantage and Chinese government's encourage, Chinese fluoropolymer industry attracts more and more foreign investment in resent years. Especially in Chinese PVDF industry, some multinationals have planned to invest in it and  it will maintain rapid growth in the 12^th  Five-year Plan Period.

Simultaneously, driven by the soaring price and tight supply of fluorite from 2010 to 2011, many fluoride companies are seeking for upstream integration. In March 2012, Dongyue Group claimed that the company is in the process of acquiring two mining areas' exploration licenses in Wulate Middle Banner, Bayannaoer City, Inner Mongolia. In addition, Zhejiang Yongtai released that the company had completed the acquisition of 20% share of Yongfei Chemical, who is specialized in the manufacturing and sale of HF.

 

However, influenced by the depression of economy at home and abroad, the market situation of fluorine chemical downstream industries is dismal, which leads to the week demand for most fluorite chemicals from January to March 2012. In March 2012, the prices of most fluorite chemicals keep falling.

How will China's PVDF industry develop during the 12^th Five-year Plan Period? What is import situation of domestic PTFE fiber? How about the price trend of domestic PTFE? What was the import and export situation of fluoride chemicals in China in Feb. 2012? You might find all answers in April Issue of China Fluoride Materials Monthly Report.

The latest issue covers:

-Zhejiang Juhua planed to construct an HFC-125 production line with capacity of 10,000t/a with Honeywell International's production technique.

-The average price of aluminum fluoride in China remains low and it's unlikely to rise in a short time.

- Domestic price of HFC-134a will fall slightly in the second quarter of 2012.

- In 2011, DFD achieves USD16.58 million of operating profit, doubling that in 2010 and LiPF6 has been its new point of profit growth in the future.

- ANOKY plans to purchase Color Root Hubei, which is the only fluorine-containing reactive dyes producer in China.
