Therefore, despite the sluggish demand in the downstream market, the supply of white fused alumina is expected to remain stable in the coming week due to the its sharp decline in the supply.
This week, the consumption capacity of China's brown fused alumina downstream market continued to decline, demand remained sluggish, with limited spot transactions. In addition, in September, the United States imposed a 10% tariff on some export products such as abrasives in China. The brown fused alumina market is pessimistic and the wait-and-see mood is high. In summary, it is expected that the market price of China's brown fused alumina products will be stable in the coming week.
