In July, there are few PTA device overhauls, and the Sanfangxiang device is planned to be put into production.

The PTA supply - demand forecast is negative, and the spot basis runs weakly [6]. - MEG: In the short - term, the price of ethylene glycol will be mainly adjusted in a wide range. The restart difficulties of some devices in the Saudi region have boosted market sentiment.
