Monofilament 30D prices rolled over at US$2.37-2.60 a kg while 1.5D staple fiber were at US$2.11-2.17 a kg.

Nylon filament yarn market was flat on the back of stable caprolactum and nylon chips prices amid rebounding crude oil and benzene.

In China, run rate were down to 35% as more and more players left for a long Lunar New Year holidays and in turn nylon yarn makers cut production.

However, on the back of lower offtake and slower demand ahead of the holiday, market continued to be notional and no firm bids or offers were heard on the week.
