Chlorosulphonated Polyethylene Rubber FOB Qingdao continued to show a softening trend through the first half of May, with market sentiment still influenced by the ample supply and muted procurement that persisted from late April. Buying interest remained cautious across both domestic compounders and key export destinations, while sellers faced ongoing inventory pressure amid steady plant operations. Demand from wire-and-cable, waterproofing, and general industrial applications stayed subdued, reinforcing the restrained trading environment. Overall, early-May dynamics reflected anticipation rather than recovery, as participants monitored mid-year tendering prospects but largely operated within the same bearish conditions that shaped April’s market trajectory.
