The mild weather across Europe, despite a cold snap, contributed to lowered gas consumption, impacting the overall demand for n-hexane.

North America N-Hexane Price

The market displayed varied trends in the US, which included a noticeable rise in prices, supported by strong cost factors and consistent domestic demand.

The mild weather conditions resulted in a decreased consumption of gas for heating and reduced activity from energy-intensive sectors, contributing to a weaker market for n-hexane. Additionally, the global drop in food prices, especially in the vegetable oil sector where n-hexane is commonly used as a solvent, further impacted the demand.
