SHANGHAI, May 30 (SMM) - The prices of lithium hydroxide were stable last week. The supply increased slightly, while the demand was stable, with the market still in a slight surplus. Top-tier smelters still focused on the overseas market while keeping their domestic prices firm. The offers by small and medium-sized smelters were relatively low, but there will be limited downside room. High-nickel battery material factories resumed their production slightly, but remained cautious over procurement due to great uncertainty over the order situation in June. Some producers purchased lithium carbonate for causticisation so as to meet their raw material needs. The market activity increased slightly. Inquiries improved after orders for next month were secured, but the price negotiations between sellers and buyers remained in a deadlock.
