Recharging and dense polysilicon prices were 58-61 yuan/kg and 55-59 yuan/kg respectively this week.

Recharging and dense polysilicon prices were 58-61 yuan/kg and 55-59 yuan/kg respectively this week. Polysilicon prices remained mixed this week. Polysilicon order signing for January was coming to an end. N-type material supply, most notably from major manufacturers, remained relatively tight, and its price remains around 68 yuan/kg. P-type material price kept dipping, with high-quality dense material price resting at some 55 yuan/kg and some inferior material price even dropping below 50 yuan/mt. Confronted with current high cost pressure from polysilicon price, crystal pulling plants may lower purchase prices in the future.
