my country's polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) production capacity utilization rate is low, and domestic companies are actively exploring overseas markets

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a widely used water-soluble polymer material with high oil resistance, adhesion, smoothness, gas barrier properties, and solvent resistance. In addition to being used as a fiber raw material, it is also used in It produces adhesives, coatings, films, emulsifiers and other products, which are widely used in papermaking, medicine, printing, food, agriculture and other fields, with high market demand.
According to the “China Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) Market Feasibility Research Report 2021-2025” released by the Industrial Research Center, the global Polyvinyl alcohol production is mainly concentrated in countries such as the United States, China and Japan. The global production capacity is about 1.9 million tons, but the actual output in 2020 is about 1.4 million tons. Asia-Pacific is the main production trend, with output accounting for 86% . In 2020, the domestic polyvinyl alcohol production capacity is about 1 million tons, but the actual output is about 850,000 tons, making it the world’s largest polyvinyl alcohol producer.
In terms of polyvinyl alcohol production technology, most overseas companies currently use the ethylene method for production, and only a few companies use the calcium carbide acetylene method for production. There are various domestic polyvinyl alcohol production processes, including the calcium carbide acetylene method, petroleum ethylene method, bioethylene method, natural gas ethane method, etc. Among them, the calcium carbide acetylene method is the most widely used.
In terms of application, global polyvinyl alcohol is mainly used in the field of polymerization assistants, accounting for 25% of the demand in this field, followed by polyvinyl butyral, accounting for 16%, adhesives and textile slurries. The proportion of demand is consistent, both at 15%. my country’s polyvinyl alcohol application market structure is slightly different from the global market. Among them, the demand for polymerization assistants accounts for a higher proportion, reaching about 40%, followed by textile sizing, accounting for 22%.
In 2020, the domestic polyvinyl alcohol market demand is approximately 730,000 tons. The domestic polyvinyl alcohol market supply and demand are unbalanced, with excess production capacity and output. In order to alleviate the supply and demand pressure in the domestic market, polyvinyl alcohol manufacturers are actively deploying overseas markets. In 2020, my country’s polyvinyl alcohol export volume was approximately 150,000 tons. Affected by the epidemic, export volume has decreased, but in 2021, domestic polyethylene Alcohol exports have resumed growth and are expected to reach 170,000 tons. my country’s polyvinyl alcohol imports are relatively small. The total import volume in 2020 is about 50,000 tons, and the import sources are Japan and Singapore. Domestic polyvinyl alcohol is mainly exported to India, South Korea, Malaysia and other countries.
Industry analysts said that polyvinyl alcohol has a wide range of applications, and driven by the development of terminal industries, my country’s polyvinyl alcohol market demand has grown steadily. . Driven by demand, domestic production capacity has also grown rapidly. However, due to excessive growth in production capacity, overcapacity has emerged. my country is the world’s largest producer of polyvinyl alcohol. In order to alleviate competition pressure in the domestic market, domestic companies are actively exploring overseas markets. my country’s polyvinyl alcohol exports continue to grow, and the industry market has great development potential.
