摘要

The US acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene domestic assessment was unchanged on the week at a Wednesday assessment of 111 cents/lb delivered via rail car as fundamentals remained unchanged. June prices could head higher as increases of 4-5 cents were announced in early and mid-May to go into effect June 1. ABS prices of ABS sold by Styrolution and Ineos ABS will increase by 4 cents/lb, according to a letter sent to customers in early May. Trinseo will increase ABS prices by 5 cents/lb, according to a notice on its website. Trinseo cited “escalating costs of key raw materials used in the production of ABS” for the increase. Feedstock benzene contracts settled 24-26 cents higher from April at 284 cents/gal and have increased 83 cents since February.
