US May phenol contracts fall 1.6% on same-month benzene

摘要

HOUSTON (ICIS)--US May phenol contracts were assessed down 1.6% on Friday, tracking same-month benzene. The 0.82 cent/lb ($18/tonne) decline puts contracts at 47.78-51.78 cents/lb on a DEL (delivered) basis. That matches the May benzene settlement plus adders of 8-12 cents/lb, rather than the 6 cent/gal decline in May benzene.
