In-depth evaluation of China's modified polyphenylene ether industry market

Modified polyphenylene ether has better thermal, electrical and mechanical properties, and is widely used in electronic appliances, medical equipment, office automation equipment, automobile dashboards, household appliances and other fields
.
Modified polyphenylene ether (MPPO) is the most widely used general engineering plastic alloy, which is mainly obtained by blending polyphenylene ether and polystyrene
.
Polyphenylene ether is a kind of thermoplastic general engineering plastic.
Its main disadvantages are poor melt fluidity, difficult processing and molding, and high cost.
Therefore, it is often modified to expand its application range
.
The modification methods of polyphenylene ether include chemical modification and physical modification.
Among them, chemical modification methods include copolymerization, block, grafting, bromination, phosphoric acid esterification, etc.
; physical modification methods include filling modification, Blending modification, etc.
, in the actual production of modified polyphenylene ether, the physical and chemical modification methods are usually used in combination
.
With the continuous improvement of the level of modification technology, the types of modified polyphenylene ether products are gradually enriched.
At present, there are more than 180 kinds of modified polyphenylene ether products in the world.
Among them, the common modified polyphenylene ether varieties are PPO/PS, PPO/PA / elastomer and PPO / PBT / elastomer alloy or the like
.
Modified polyphenylene ether has better thermal, electrical and mechanical properties, and is widely used in electronic appliances, medical equipment, office automation equipment, automobile dashboards, household appliances and other fields
.
According to the "In-depth Evaluation of China's Modified Polyphenylene Ether Industry Market and Investment Feasibility Consultation Report for 2021-2025" released by the New Sijie Industry Research Center, due to technical limitations, the global modified polyphenylene ether production capacity is mainly concentrated in the United States and Europe.
And Asia and other countries and regions, of which the United States is the world's largest modified polyphenylene ether production area, with a production capacity of about 42%, followed by Asia
.
From the perspective of the demand market, the demand for modified polyphenylene ether mainly comes from electronic appliances, office automation equipment, automobiles and other fields.
China’s polyphenylene ether market is dominated by modified polyphenylene ether products.
Consumption in the field accounts for the highest proportion, reaching more than 40%, followed by office automation equipment
.
Globally, large-scale modified polyphenylene ether manufacturers include SABIC in the United States, GE in the United States, BASF in Germany, Saudi Basics, Asahi Kasei in Japan, and Mitsubishi Chemical in Japan, etc. .
In recent years, with the continuous increase in national policy support and the strengthening of domestic enterprises’ R&D capabilities, a number of outstanding companies with certain competitive advantages have emerged in China’s modified polyphenylene ether industry, such as China National Bluestar and Guangzhou Kingfa Technology Shares, Xinbao Intelligent Manufacturing Tangshan and other companies
.
At present, China has mastered the production technology of modified polyphenylene ether, and has also realized the large-scale production of modified polyphenylene ether.
However, compared with developed countries such as Europe and the United States, China's modified polyphenylene ether industry still has a large room for development
.
Industry analysts in Xinsijie said that modified polyphenylene ether is a modified product of polyphenylene ether.
Its thermal, electrical and mechanical properties are more excellent, and its application fields are more extensive.
In recent years, with the continuous release of downstream market demand, The scale of the modified polyphenylene ether industry is gradually expanding
.
Limited by technical factors, the global production capacity of modified polyphenylene ether is relatively high.
Although China has achieved large-scale production of modified polyphenylene ether, compared with developed countries such as Europe and the United States, China’s modified polyphenylene ether industry still has a relatively high degree of concentration.
Large room for development
