Over the past week, the domestic titanium market has shown a relatively calm state, with prices remaining stable and the market’s supply-demand relationship relatively balanced. However, industry experts believe that this state may not last long. With the gradual recovery of the global economy, the gradual launch of China’s aerospace and defense markets, and the upcoming maintenance period in industries such as chemicals, the demand for titanium materials is expected to increase further in the second half of the year. However, as the current titanium industry is experiencing overheating investment, the risk of overcapacity is also gradually increasing. Companies need to strengthen their risk awareness to avoid problems of overinvestment and overcapacity.

The specific performance of various materials in the market is as follows:

• Esponja De Titanio: Market demand remains weak, inventories at sponge titanium production companies have increased, and market demand continues to decrease. Prices remain stable, with the transaction price for Grade 1 products around 49,000 Yuan por sonido.
• Lingotes de titanio: Production has significantly decreased, with some companies reducing output, leading to a drop in prices. Pure titanium ingots are quoted at around 55,000 a 58,000 Yuan por sonido, while TC4 aleación de titanio ingots are quoted at around 60,000 a 62,000 Yuan por sonido.
• Chatarra de titanio: Prices continue to fall, with abundant supply. The prices for pure titanium scrap and TC4 alloy scrap are approximately 28,000 yuan and 22,000 Yuan por sonido, respectivamente.
• Losas de titanio: Companies have reduced production, leading to a drop in prices and decreased demand. The market price for pure titanium slabs is between 62,000 y 63,000 Yuan por sonido, with sufficient spot market resources.
• Placas laminadas en caliente de titanio (Bobinas): Demand has decreased, Pero los precios permanecen estables. The quotation for pure titanium hot-rolled coils is between 82,000 y 85,000 Yuan por sonido, while pure titanium hot-rolled plates are quoted at around 80,000 Yuan por sonido.
• Titanium Rods and Cables: Demand is stable, y los precios permanecen sin cambios. Pure titanium rods are priced between 120,000 y 140,000 Yuan por sonido, while titanium alloy rods are quoted at 180,000 a 220,000 Yuan por sonido. Pure titanium wires with a diameter of 2 a 4 mm are quoted at approximately 140 a 160 yuan per kilogram.
• Tubos de titanio: Market demand has decreased, Pero los precios permanecen estables, with quotations between 115,000 y 125,000 Yuan por sonido.
• Aleaciones de titanio: Market demand is declining, competition is intensifying, and prices have slightly decreased.

The downstream market is weak, titanium slag enterprises are under great pressure to ship products, market prices are low, and raw material costs remain high, leading to substantial production pressure for titanium slag enterprises, who are operating under pressure.

Titanium Tetrachloride

The market quotation for titanium tetrachloride is 6300-6800 yuan/ton. With high liquid chlorine prices, enterprises are facing significant cost pressures. Downstream cost pressures are also high, leading to stable prices for titanium tetrachloride.

Esponja De Titanio

The mainstream market price for grade 1 sponge titanium for civilian use is around 49,000-50,000 yuan/ton. Sponge titanium enterprises are under significant inventory pressure, market demand is weak, and enterprises are facing considerable shipping pressure, resulting in weak price performance.

Titanium Dioxide

Today’s titanium dioxide price index is 15525.51, sin cambios desde el día laborable anterior. The titanium dioxide market is operating below capacity, coupled with rising costs.
