At present, the supply of nitrile rubber is basically stable. However, there are rumors in the market that the Lanhua nitrile plant is scheduled for maintenance in mid June, and the supply of nitrile rubber may slightly tighten at that time.

Downstream rubber hose, automotive parts and other rubber product industries mainly have small inquiries and small transactions in the market.

Future forecast: Business Society nitrile analysts believe that the current stable supply of nitrile rubber, coupled with the insignificant increase in downstream inquiries, is a weak trend in the nitrile rubber industry chain; In the later stage, if the nitrile rubber device is shut down for maintenance, the pressure on the nitrile rubber supply surface may be relieved to some extent, and there may be an upward trend for nitrile rubber in the later stage.
