Market Overview:
The global polyvinyl ether market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for polyvinyl ethers in various applications such as refrigerant oil, paint and coating, printing ink, adhesive and others. In terms of type, viscous oil is expected to hold a major share of the global market during the forecast period owing to its high viscosity and low volatility properties. Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest growing region during the forecast period owing to rising demand from countries such as China and India. Some of the key players operating in this market are BASF SE (Germany), DowDuPont Inc (U.S.), SABIC (Saudi Arabia), INEOS Group AG (Switzerland) and Asahi Kasei Corporation (Japan).
Product Definition:
Polyvinyl ether (PVE) is a synthetic polymer, typically used as a plasticizer in PVC. It is also known by the trade name Plastek.
Viscous Oil:
Viscous oil is a type of polyol used as an additive in the plastic industry. It is also used as a processing aid for PVC and other plastics. Viscous oils are made from renewable resources such as corn, soybeans, palm kernel oil or sunflower oil.
Rubbery Material:
Rubbery materials are amorphous and soft in nature. They do not have a crystalline structure like other polymers. The material has low glass transition temperature and high flow behavior which makes it stretchable, elastic & resilient at room temperature. It also has good thermal stability as compared to other elastomers & thermoplastics when exposed to elevated temperatures.
Application Insights:
The refrigerant oil application segment led the global polyvinyl ether market in 2017. This is attributed to growing demand for HVAC systems in commercial and residential applications across various regions, including Asia Pacific, North America and Europe. In addition, growth of the automotive industry coupled with rising consumer spending on comfort is expected to propel demand for VEVs from refrigerant oils over the forecast period.
Paint and coating was another prominent application segment owing to increasing use of polyvinyl ethers as thickeners, wetting agents and emulsifiers in paints & coatings products used across several industries including construction materials, automotive & transportation etc. The product also finds applications as a binder resin or hardener when combined with di-2-ethylhexyl Phthalate (DOPH) under its brand name Solventor Ester IIE1 by Eastman Chemical Company LLC among others globally2.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific was the largest regional market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The region accounts for a major share of global production owing to availability of low-cost labor, raw material, and land. China emerged as a prominent producer and consumer in this region on account of easy access to both primary and secondary raw materials.
The demand for PVC products from Europe is mainly driven by increasing use as an adhesive agent in various applications such as medical devices, packaging tapes & bags, glues & sealants used for household purposes etc. Increasing demand from end-use industries coupled with growing automotive industry will drive growth further over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from end-use industries such as automotive, construction, and electrical & electronics
- Rising awareness about the benefits of Polyvinyl Ether over traditional materials
- Growing investments in research and development to develop new applications for Polyvinyl Ether
- Expansion of manufacturing capacities by key players in the market
- Emergence of new players in the market
