    PI Film (Electronic Grade) ¥1,000,000–¥3,000,000/MT ±0%–2%↑ Stable/Bullish
    Special Ceramics (Tungsten-based) ¥447,000–¥660,000/MT -13%–18%↓↓ Sharply Declining

    Key Price Movements

    Carbon Fiber (T300/T700): -2%–4% (Oversupply + Weak Demand)

    Domestic carbon fiber capacity continues to expand, with major producers like Jilin Chemical Fiber maintaining normal operating rates and inventory levels elevated across the market. This week, T300 12K transaction prices dropped to ¥75–85/kg, while T700 12K fell to ¥100–130/kg. Wind turbine blades, the primary downstream sector, are releasing demand below expectations; emerging applications in low-altitude economy and NEVs have not yet compensated for the supply overhang. Prices are expected to remain under downward pressure in the near term.

    Tungsten-based Ceramic Raw Materials: -13%–18% (Sharp Decline in Upstream Tungsten Concentrate)

    Zhangyuan Tungsten’s July 1H 2026 long-term order quotes: Black tungsten concentrate at ¥448,000/dmtu (-13.8% WoW), ammonium paratungstate (APT) at ¥660,000/MT (-15.4% WoW). Drivers include looser supply from Russian imports and domestic mines, combined with weakening manufacturing procurement demand. Tungsten-based ceramic input costs are expected to ease in the near term.

    PTFE Resin: Steady-to-firm (Maintenance Support + Peak Season)

    Shandong suspension medium grain quoted at ~¥31,800/MT, Fujian dispersion resin at ¥50,000/MT, broadly stable. The fluorspar-R22 chain remains firm, PTFE plant maintenance continues across producers, and traders are holding firm on offers. Downward pressure is limited; upside is capped by tepid end demand.

    PI Film: Steady-to-firm (Strong Demand + High Import Dependence)

    Electronic-grade PI film remains in the ¥1,000,000–¥3,000,000/MT range. High-end grades rely heavily on imports from DuPont, Ube, and SK Kolon. Domestic substitution is in progress but slow. Sustained demand from 5G, NEVs, and semiconductor packaging keeps supply tight.

    Impact Analysis

    On Procurement Costs

    Positive (Cost Relief):

    • Crude oil sharply lower (WTI breaking below $68/bbl, Brent ~$72/bbl), weakening cost support across the petrochemical chain
    • Tungsten-based inputs down significantly (-15.4% APT), easing cost pressure for tungsten-based ceramic manufacturers
    • Carbon fiber sustained at low levels benefits composite material producers reducing raw material spend

    Negative (Cost Rigidity):

    • PI film import dependence exceeds 60%; RMB/USD rate and import tariffs sustain cost floor
    • High-end PEEK grades (medical/aerospace) remain at ¥1,500–2,000/kg
    • PTFE constrained by fluorspar supply, limiting downside

    On Supply Chain

    • Carbon Fiber: Oversupply + destocking pressure — extended supplier payment terms; preferred treatment for long-term contract customers
    • PI Film: Domestic substitution accelerating (Ruihuatai capacity expansion), but electronic-grade still import-dependent
    • PEEK: Domestic substitution improving (Zhongyan Stock, Junhua Special Materials expanding), long-cycle orders may consider locking domestic suppliers
    • Special Ceramics: Sharp tungsten-based price drops may trigger upstream hold-and-wait behavior; watch price transmission pace

    Actionable Recommendations

    Material Recommendation Action
    Carbon Fiber T300/T700 Build positions in batches, avoid chasing Lock Q3 volumes at current low levels; prioritize suppliers with flexible payment terms
    PTFE Resin Lock 3-month coverage Maintenance season tightening supply — lock volume and price ahead of schedule
    PEEK (Imported Brands) Lock immediately FX volatility + supply uncertainty — pre-order one quarter ahead
    PI Film Lock quarterly framework Dual-source strategy (domestic + import); secure electronic-grade supply first
    Special Ceramics (Tungsten) Wait 1–2 months Post-plunge, upstream may attempt price support; wait for stabilization before restocking

    ## Key Price Movements

    ### 1. PTFE Resin: +4.17% (Rising)

    **Analysis of Causes:**
    – **Raw material cost push**: Crude oil price fluctuations drive up costs of upstream materials such as fluorite and hydrofluoric acid
    – **Supply tightening**: Some domestic PTFE production facilities are undergoing maintenance, causing tight supply of available stock
    – **Demand recovery**: Growing demand for high-frequency and high-speed substrate materials in 5G communications, semiconductors, and new energy sectors
    – **Export growth**: Increasing export orders for PTFE dispersion resin further tighten domestic supply

    **Current Price**: Domestic market average price (tax included) is approximately 50,000 RMB/ton (as of late June), up about 3,000 RMB/ton from late May.

    ### 2. Zirconyl Chloride: +5.6% (Rising)

    **Analysis of Causes:**
    – **Rising raw material costs**: Continuous increase in import prices of zircon sand drives up zirconyl chloride production costs
    – **Supply tightness**: Operating rates at major domestic producers are insufficient, with some facilities shut down for maintenance
    – **Growing demand**: Steady growth in downstream demand from ceramics, refractory materials, nuclear-grade zirconium materials, etc.
    – **High-end product price surge**: Prices of electronic-grade high-purity nano zirconia have risen significantly, reaching 50-65.7 USD/kg

    **Current Price**: 18,750 RMB/ton (for (Zr+Hf)O2≥36%), up about 1,000 RMB/ton from early June.

    ### 3. Zirconia Powder (Nano-grade): Consistently Rising

    **Analysis of Causes:**
    – **High-end application driven**: Explosive demand growth in high-end fields such as MLCCs, battery separator coatings, and bioceramics
    – **Concentrated supply**: Production capacity for high-purity zirconia powder is concentrated, and new capacity release takes time
    – **Technical barriers**: High technical thresholds for electronic-grade nano zirconia, with domestic production rates still needing improvement

    ## Impact Analysis

    ### Impact on Procurement Costs

    1. **PTFE resin price increase** will directly drive up manufacturing costs for seals, pipe linings, electronic substrates, and other products, with an estimated cost increase of 3-5% for related products.
