subject: The Chemical Industry Is Running Steadily Improving, Chemical Raw Material Production Situation Has [print this page] In the "expanding domestic demand, and ensure growth," a series of policies and measures under the action of the first five months of this year, the industrial economy to reverse the sharp drop in growth momentum, although the steady recovery of the foundation is still solid, but the further increase in the phenomenon of positive change, industrial the overall operation being in the right direction.

On the demand pick-up driven, the chemical industry as a whole showed steady recovery of the operating situation. May, chemical-line value-added increased by 12.6%, has more than 10% for three consecutive months to maintain growth.
Basic chemical raw material situation has improved. From January to May, soda ash, caustic soda, ethylene production decreased 5.6% year on year, 7.3% and 7.9%, respectively, Biyijiduo slow decline 5.5,3.9 and 2.8 percentage points, which were reduced in May fell to 2.8%, 1.2% and 6.3%, equipment operating rates were about 80%.
At the national expansion of domestic demand, industrial adjustment policies to revitalize the role of planning, the main non-ferrous metal prices rebound showed oscillation trend. In May, the average spot price of aluminum dropped to 12,901 yuan / ton, down 264 yuan at the end than the 4 / ton. Aluminum inventories remained high.
