my country’s PVC paste resin output is gradually increasing, and leading companies have emerged

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a polymer formed by free radical polymerization and reaction mechanism polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) under the action of initiator or light and heat. PVC can be divided into general resin and paste resin. PVC paste resin is often combined with plasticizer to make PVC paste. PVC paste resin is a unique liquid material of polyvinyl chloride plastic in its unprocessed state. It has the advantages of convenient configuration, stable performance, good chemical stability, and high mechanical strength. It is widely used in the production of soft labels, wallpaper, artificial leather, Vinyl toys, foam plastic and other products.

The raw materials of PVC paste resin can be roughly divided into calcium carbide, VCM, EDC, etc. Among them, PVC paste resin using calcium carbide as raw material accounts for about 65.7% of the total output, and PVC paste resin using VCM and EDC as raw materials accounts for 34.3% of the total output. At this stage, the polymerization methods of PVC paste resin mainly include seed emulsion polymerization, micro-suspension polymerization, mixing method, etc. Among them, PVC paste resin made by seed emulsion polymerization is mainly used in wallpaper, foaming and other fields; PVC paste resin made by micro-suspension polymerization is mainly used in gloves, floor rolls, toys and other fields; PVC paste resin made by mixing method Mainly used in floor leather, wallpaper, artificial leather and other fields.

Due to the epidemic, PVC paste resin, as the main raw material of PVC gloves for epidemic prevention materials, has seen rapid growth in market demand. Driven by demand from downstream industries, my country’s PVC paste resin output continues to grow. From 2012 to 2022, my country’s total PVC paste resin output increased from 672,000 tons to 1.124 million tons. As my country’s PVC paste resin technology continues to advance, its output is expected to gradually increase in the future.

According to the “2023 Global PVC Paste Resin Industry Market Status Research Report” released by the Industrial Research Center, my country’s PVC paste resin market From a structural point of view, gloves, artificial leather, car interiors, toys, etc. are its main application areas. Among them, the gloves market accounted for the highest market share at 37.6%, the artificial leather market accounted for 22.3%, the automotive interior market accounted for 6.9%, and the toy market accounted for 4.2%.

At present, there are many companies in my country’s PVC paste resin market. The larger companies include Shenyang Chemical, Xinjiang Tianye, Xiyang Chemical, Chenhongli, Yidong Dongxing, Tangshan Sanyou, China Salt Jilantai, Shanghai Chlor-alkali, Jining Zhongyin, etc. Among them, Shenyang Chemical Industry and Xinjiang Tianye have a relatively high market share and are leading companies in the industry.

Industry analysts said that at this stage, my country’s PVC paste resin is still at a low level in terms of product types and product quality, and production technology There is still a certain gap compared with the international advanced level. As the application fields of PVC paste resin gradually expand, the existing PVC paste resin production process cannot meet market demand, forcing PVC paste resin companies to continuously upgrade their technology to improve product quality and product stability. To sum up, my country’s PVC paste resin industry still has a lot of room for development.
