Recently, the lithium battery electrolyte materials ethylene carbonate ( EC) Prices keep rising, increase 2000 yuan/ton to 1 on Monday. On May 16, 80000 yuan/ton, again because of the demand rotary header. After weeks of continuous upward, the variety price is double February has been realized.
it is known that ethylene carbonate is in short supply, very strong appetite price, the price is much higher than last year's fourth quarter season 1. The price of 20000 yuan/ton. Demand side, the electric car industry presents the explosive growth. Lithium battery for ethylene carbonate for the rigid demand. Five electrolyte solvents, ethylene carbonate highest dielectric constant, low substitutability. And supply side, because the end of jiangsu environmental protection shut down 3. 50000 tons of ethylene carbonate production, accounting for the industry capacity of more than 3; Recently, some capacity affected by environmental supervision, maintenance, short-term supply is limited.
