[SMM Fluoride Salts Weekly Review: Weak Supply and Demand in the Aluminum Fluoride Industry Evident, Transactions Remain Sluggish During the Week]
During the week, transaction activity among aluminum fluoride enterprises remained sluggish, with companies primarily focused on fulfilling previous orders, and market activity was insufficient. Costs showed mixed trends, as fluorite powder prices are expected to rise due to supply constraints and a recovery in the end-use market, while aluminum hydroxide prices continued to decline, driven by the ongoing drop in raw material alumina prices. Coupled with weak supply and demand in the aluminum fluoride industry ahead of the holiday, aluminum fluoride prices are expected to remain largely stable in the short term.
