    4, the product price movements of different
    In 2009, petroleum and chemical industries in the overall price level fell by 13.2% over the previous year. However, significant differences in price movements for each product. Organic materials, synthetic materials, the market was significantly warmer trend; chemical fertilizers, inorganic raw material prices continued to slump.
    (A) the fertilizer market continues to slump
    Fertilizer market in 2009 showed low overall trend of the prices of main fertilizer varieties to run low. Price data show that annual average price of 1735 yuan urea / ton, down 15%; diammonium phosphate averaged 2703 yuan / ton, down 30.6%; made an average price of potassium chloride to 3493 yuan / ton, up up 1.2%; 45% of the chlorine-based compound fertilizer an average price of 2228 yuan / ton, down 24.6%.
    (B) the polarization of basic chemical raw material market
    In 2009, basic chemical raw materials increased polarization of the market situation. Inorganic chemical raw materials end of the market despite a better performance, but the weak Jinxian year. Sulfuric acid market average price of 313 yuan / ton, down 75.7%, 37.4% decrease compared with the beginning; soda-year average price of 1,231 yuan / ton, down 36.8%, down 1.5 percent compared with the beginning; carbide average price of 3013 yuan / ton , down 15.2%, down by 5.3% compared with the beginning. Organic chemical raw materials market in general showed a strong rising trend. Propylene annual average price of 7840 yuan / ton, down 35.5% over the year rose 41%; Benzene-year average price of 5100 yuan / ton, down 39.5% over the year rose 65.6%; styrene-year average price of 7696 yuan / ton, down 29.5%, 55.5% higher compared with the beginning; methanol annual average price of 1980 yuan / ton, down 38.6%.
     (C) Synthetic materials market warmer
    In 2009, synthetic materials, the overall market price movements were noticeably warmer. High-density polyethylene-year average 10,672 yuan / ton, down 18%, up 26.3% compared with the beginning; PP-year average price of 9451 yuan / ton, down 23.5% over the year rose 26%; SBR average price of to 12,718 yuan / ton, down 33.5% over the year rose 18.3%; caprolactam-year average price of 14,817 yuan / ton fell 30.1% over the year rose 36%.
    5, markedly improved efficiency of the sector
