Polystyrene : United States

摘要

High-impact polystyrene domestic assessments remained flat at a range of 105-107 cents/lb delivered railcar despite a drop in feedstocks butadiene and styrene. The export assessment for HIPS was kept firm at $1,850-1,860/mt FAS Houston. General-purpose polystyrene assessments were also kept stable at a range of 92-94 cents/lb delivered railcar and $1,650-1,660/mt FAS Houston. Sources said demand has been a little sluggish for polystyrene, but expectations are for demand to pick up.
