News summary
Longzhong Information, as published by Mysteel on Friday, November 6, 2026, described a largely stable carbon black market in Guangzhou, with buyers mainly purchasing to cover immediate requirements. Tax-inclusive delivered quotations were CNY 9,300–9,500 per metric ton for N330 and CNY 9,800–10,000 per ton for N550.
Market details
The report also placed N220 at CNY 10,500–10,700/t and N660 at CNY 9,300–9,500/t on the same Guangzhou basis. In Shandong, N330 was quoted at CNY 9,200–9,400/t on a tax-inclusive delivered basis. Shanxi quotes of CNY 9,000–9,200/t for N330 were on a tax-inclusive self-pickup basis, so the regions cannot be compared without accounting for delivery terms.
Analysis of this news
Stable published ranges do not demonstrate a recovery in demand: cautious orders and buyer bargaining remain central to the market. Chinese domestic quotations are not Iranian or Middle Eastern import prices; freight, insurance, duties, currency and contractual terms must be considered. Rubber-reinforcing N330/N550 grades should also not be treated as technically equivalent to micronized pigment grades.
