In September, the export volume of polyvinyl chloride (pure powder) was 32,600 tons, a decrease of 42.6% from the previous month. Due to the recent seasonal decline in demand in Central Asia, the price plummet of the Indian market due to climatic reasons and artificial speculation also dampened the enthusiasm of Chinese exporters, resulting in a decrease in the export volume of PVC pure powder. In October, the export volume of liquid caustic soda was 82,300 tons, which continued to increase significantly from the previous month; the export volume of solid caustic soda was 37,600 tons, a decrease of 32.7% from the previous month. The signing of the long list of liquid caustic soda in October prompted a significant increase in the number of exports, while the demand for solid caustic soda in Southeast Asia showed a weaker trend, which resulted in a downward trend in export prices of solid caustic soda, which affected the enthusiasm of Chinese exporters.
