Russian president demanded that exports of Russian gas to "unfriendly" countries be settled in rubles. The demand has raised concerns in Germany about possible supply disruptions and the impact on industry and households if utilities do not pay in robles. Europe gets about 40% of its gas from Russia. Last year, Europe imported about 155 billion cubic meters. Germany, Europe's largest economy, depends heavily on Russian gas.

The chief executive of Germany's E.ON said the German economy would face "significant damage, which should be avoided if possible" without Russian supplies. He also said it would take Germany three years to wean itself off Russian gas.  

In the event of a supply disruption, Germany's gas network regulator would prioritize home heating over industrial use, so energy-hungry manufacturers such as steelmakers would be the first to suffer, he said.

The volatile international situations will continue to affect the markets and prices of many commodities like the PP fiber.

Overview of PP Fiber: 

With the rapid development of chemical, environmental protection, and new energy industries, polypropylene PP fiber has a good prospect of use as a filter material. The new technology enables polypropylene fiber to have high filtration efficiency, high strength, light weight, and good chemical stability. The filter material has good peelability. Therefore, in the pharmaceutical, chemical, environmental protection, battery and other industries, as functional products such as hydrophilic membranes and ion exchange membranes. It has a good momentum of development and is a new high-tech product that enhances the added value of polypropylene fiber.

The development of the Russia-Ukraine conflict will continue to dominate the commodity prices such as the PP fiber in the future. If the conflict eases or cools, Russia and Ukraine go back to negotiate, commodity prices would fall. However, if the situation between Russia and Ukraine deteriorates further, or evolves into a full-scale war, the price of the PP fiber is predicted to see further improvement over the coming days.
