In 2020, 14 sets of polypropylene plants were actually put into operation in China, with a new supply capacity of 4.
35 million tons/year.
By the end of 2020, China's polypropylene production capacity had reached 32.
98 million tons/year, breaking 30 million tons/year for the first time
.
Polypropylene has gone from relative overcapacity to absolute overcapacity, and the development of special materials is on the line!
Polypropylene has gone from relative overcapacity to absolute overcapacity, and the development of special materials is on the line!At present, the high-end polypropylene special materials with high foreign dependence in the domestic market mainly include two categories
.
HCPP: Copolymerization products mainly rely on imports, and domestic products mainly rely on homopolymerization
HCPP: Copolymerization products mainly rely on imports, and domestic products mainly rely on homopolymerizationHigh crystallinity polypropylene (HCPP) can be divided into two categories: copolymerization and homopolymerization
.
China initially has HCPP production capacity, but when it is applied to fields such as automobiles, there is still a gap with imported products
.
HSPP: There is a surplus of products with low and medium melting index, and products with a melting index greater than 30 are completely dependent on imports
HSPP: There is a surplus of products with low and medium melting index, and products with a melting index greater than 30 are completely dependent on importsHSPP is primarily defined in terms of impact strength, which increases the toughness of the compound and helps compound companies minimize plastomer loading, thereby simplifying formulations
.
In 2019, the consumption of HSPP in the Chinese market was about 350,000 tons, mainly used in downstream fields such as automobiles, toys and household appliances
.
In China, there are many suppliers of HSPP products, and domestic products occupy the main market share
.
HMSPP: Small market size but decent profitability
HMSPP: Small market size but decent profitabilityThere is still a gap in the quality and reputation of Chinese HMSPP domestic products and imported products
.
The HMSPP market demand is only about 52,000 tons, of which 95% of the consumption is used for polypropylene foaming, and also used in the field of hollow product injection molding and film
.
Since the downstream EPP market is small and EPP manufacturers have weak bargaining power, HMSPP products are in a state where the market size is small but profitability is acceptable
.
Ultra-low ash polypropylene: 95% of the Chinese market relies on imports
Ultra-low ash polypropylene: 95% of the Chinese market relies on importsGlobal ultra-low ash polypropylene is mainly supplied by Korea Petrochemical, Borealis, TPC and Sinopec Zhongyuan Petrochemical, while Korea Petrochemical, Borealis and Singapore TPC supply more than 90% of the total global supply
.
In the Chinese market, 95% of ultra-low ash polypropylene is imported
.
In 2019, the Chinese market consumed a total of 104,000 tons of ultra-low ash polypropylene
.
The battery separator industry is the most widely used, followed by the capacitor film industry with a total consumption of 93%
.
Battery separators and capacitor films are the main application areas for low-ash polypropylene, so their average prices remain at the same level as the overall average
.
Automotive, baby products and home appliance applications are high value-added fields, but the market is relatively closed, with small market capacity and difficult market development
.
It is estimated that the consumption of ultra-low ash polypropylene will grow by more than 7% over the next 10 years
.
