China Polyimide Prices Decline 2.1% as Overseas Buyers Limit Spot Purchases

Nicholas Sparks 20-Jul-2026
China’s polyimide market weakened in June 2026 as lower aromatic feedstock costs and reduced export activity pressured pricing. The Polyimide Resin Powder FOB Qingdao assessment declined by approximately 2.1% month-on-month, reflecting cautious buying from overseas converters and inventory adjustments among distributors. Domestic demand linked to AMOLED display expansion provided early support, while EV battery applications offered additional stability. However, buyers in South Korea and the United States adopted shorter procurement cycles, limiting spot purchases and export momentum. Lower PMDA and ODA costs reduced production expenses, enabling producers to adjust offers downward. Supply remained generally balanced despite a temporary maintenance shutdown that slightly reduced availability. The polyimide market is expected to face further pressure in July due to weaker exports, softer feedstock costs, and inventory correction. Nevertheless, demand for high-performance polyimide films and powders in flexible electronics, AMOLED displays, and battery applications may provide intermittent support.

Polyimide prices in China declined during June **** as lower upstream feedstock costs and weaker export demand influenced market sentiment. Early-month domestic consumption linked to expanding AMOLED display capacity provided support, while interest from EV battery applications created temporary momentum. However, overseas converters in South Korea and the United States remained cautious, preferring limited purchasing cycles and reducing spot buying activity. Producers focused on inventory management ahead of expected electricity tariff increases, resulting in selective discounts and a softer pricing environment.

Market conditions across end-use sectors remained mixed. Electronics demand continued to support the polyimide segment, with manufacturers seeking advanced polyimide films and powders for AMOLED displays, flexible electronics, and high-temperature applications. Automotive battery-related demand also provided additional stability. However, slower overseas orders weakened export activity and encouraged producers to adjust offers to maintain sales volumes.
