Many domestic companies are being forced to raise their product prices as the costs of raw materials such as paper and rare earths soar, analysts said. Rare-earth prices have surged in recent months. According to domestic rare-earth news website ccmn.cn, the price of erbium oxide, a material for making special luminescent glasses, was about 180,000 yuan ($27, 612) per ton on Monday, increasing 5.3 percent from March.
