China Carbon Black Prices: N330 and N550 Weekly Reference Values, 9 November 2026

News summary

The China Rubber Industry Association published rubber-chain reference prices on 9 November 2026, covering the week of 2–8 November. Longzhong data cited by the association put average Shandong carbon black prices at CNY 9,300 per tonne for N330 and CNY 9,800 per tonne for N550.

Market details

The same weekly table listed N220 at CNY 10,300/t and N660 at CNY 9,300/t. These are regional reference averages, not guaranteed export offers, FOB prices or transaction prices in Iran. For regional context, ChemAnalyst reported a Q3 2026 average for N220 of USD 1,683.33/t CFR Jebel Ali, UAE, and USD 1,331/t CFR Tokyo, Japan. Both are historical quarterly averages on their stated delivery bases—not quotations dated 9 November.

Analysis of this news

The figures underline why buyers must monitor feedstock costs alongside demand from tire manufacturers. No independently verifiable public transaction quotation for Iranian N330 or N550 on 9 November was established, so Chinese or UAE assessments should not be presented as Iranian prices.
