Updated to Q3 2019
European nylon 6 supply should remain ample in Q3 2019, but if demand improves then market dynamics could become more balanced. Nylon 6,6 supply may continue increasing in Q3, but a planned upstream turnaround in September is expected to tighten supply and players are likely to build inventories in advance.
Demand is expected to remain low in Q3 because of the seasonally quiet summer months, while weak consumption is likely to continue in the automotive sector. Buying interest is unlikely to improve until 2020, although there could be signs of a slight improvement in September.
