(APAC)   Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) supply remained
short due to power outages and production cuts at
the upstream vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) plants.
Major producers of the feedstock such as Dairen
Chemicals Corporation, Celanese, and Sinopec
Sichuan Vinylon reduced their production
capacities due to shortage in the upstream
natural gas during peak winter season in the
North-Eastern region followed by congestion

The minimal access to ocean freight meant limited
raw material availability affected by the crude
oil production cuts by the OPEC. Demand for PVA
remained healthy throughout the region because of
buoyant demand from the packaging films sector,
display films and other specialty formulations.
Pushed by demand and an upsurge in the raw
material, PVA price in the Asia Pacific
registered a hike of an average of USD 200 per MT
in December.   Europe   Europes sustaining
activity in the construction and the packaging
films sector propelled the regional demand for
PVA in Q4. The product supply was heard affected
by the production outages at some upstream units
throughout the region and container shortages
prompting high priced imports. The European Union
initiated the anti-dumping conquest over low
priced imports of Chinese Polyvinyl Alcohol at
the start of the quarter. The regional traders
reported low inventory levels and spiked crude
oil prices as the key reasons pushing up the
price curve. Extending sharp feedstock rates to
its customer, a leading European producer
announced increment in the prices of Polyvinyl
Alcohol by an average of USD 160 per MT in
December. How we can help ChemAnalyst addresses

About Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) is water soluble,
non-toxic synthetic polymer with no odor. The
primary raw material to manufacture PVA is vinyl
acetate monomer (VAM). It is produced by the
polymerization of vinyl acetate followed by the
partial hydrolysis to the ester group with
hydroxyl group, in the presence of aqueous sodium
hydroxide. The adhesives industry, agrochemicals,
display films, packaging, paper manufacturing,
textile, ceramics, oil field, cementing and seed
coating are the key end-use industries of
Polyvinyl alcohol. Asia pacific dominates the
global market in terms of production and
consumption followed by the North America and
Europe.
