In China, local petrochemical major Sinopec is reported to have hiked its ex tank prices of ACN by Yuan 100/mt. The revised rates were up at the Yuan 21,000/mt mark.
Supporting the steep climb in prices of ACN were gains in feedstock propylene with rates up at the USD 1550/mt FOB Korea levels on Thursday.
