Global Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Market By Product Growth Trends and Forecast 2014 to 2020 by Grand View Research, Inc
The global market for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is expected to reach USD 79.11 billion by 2020, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing construction and infrastructure spending in emerging markets of Asia Pacific and Latin America is expected to remain a key driving factor for global PVC demand. In addition, growth of global automotive industry is also expected to have a positive influence on the market. Volatile raw material prices coupled with the stringent regulatory scenario, particularly in North America and Europe to limit or minimize PVC use for medical applications are expected to remain key challenges for market participants. In order to overcome such challenges, the industry has shifted its focus towards developing bio-based alternatives to PVC which is expected to provide future opportunities for market participants.

Construction emerged as the leading application segment and accounted for 55.7% of the total market volume in 2013. Increasing construction spending in BRICS nations on account of organization of global events such as FIFA World Cup and Summer Olympics in these nations is expected to drive the demand for PVC in construction industry. Electrical & electronics is expected to be the fastest growing application segment at an estimated CAGR of 5.4% from 2014 to 2020. Growth of Chinese and Taiwanese electronics industry is expected to spur growth for PVC in electrical & electronics industry.

    What Is Polyvinylchloride?

    Polyvinylchloride has been shown to have a head-to-tail structure. Experimental evidence of this is that when dissolved in dioxin and treated with zinc dust, it goes through a Wurtz-type reaction yielding a product that contains a slight amount of chlorine and no obvious unsaturation. The alternate possible structure, the head-to-head organization, would yield unsaturated locations where adjacent chlorine atoms had been detached (See Figure 3.1).…

    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Polyhydroxyalkanoates: bioplastics with a green agenda Tajalli Keshavarz and Ipsita Roy Production of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) has been investigated for more than eighty years but recently a number of factors including increase in the price of crude oil and public awareness of the environmental issues have become a notable driving force for extended research on biopolymers. The versatility of PHAs has made them good candidates for the study of their potential in a variety of areas from biomedical/ medical fields to food, packaging, textile and household material. While production costs are still a drawback to wider usage of these biopolymers, their application as low volume high cost items is becoming a reality. The future trend is to focus on the development of more efficient and economical processes for PHA production, isolation, purification and improvement of PHA material properties.…

    Global Bio Succinic Acid Market - Size, Share, Trends, Analysis, Research, Future Demand, Scope and Forecast, 2013 – 2020 by True Market Research

    The U.S. Department of Energy (USDOE) considers succinic acid as one among the top twelve chemical building blocks. Succinic acid, as a platform chemical, is growing in demand in various applications. However, consumption of petroleum based succinic acid, as an intermediate, in manufacturing various chemicals, is limited due to its volatility of price and carbon footprints. These concerns led to the discovery of biological manufacturing of succinic acid. The bio succinic acid market is forecast to grow at a significant rate over the next seven years. The major drivers for this growth will be volatility in fossil fuel prices, rise in carbon footprints, and an interest in using locally available raw materials. Furthermore, increasing global demand of green chemicals will trigger its adoption in wide range of applications, especially, in bio plastics, making it a strong platform chemical.…

    Industrial Uses of Ethene

    While ethene by itself is not particularly useful, it can be used to produce chemicals such as vinyl chloride (CH2=CHCl) and styrene (CH2=CH(C6H5)) which in turn can undergo polymerization to produce polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polystyrene respectively. Traditional materials like rubber, steel, ceramics and glass are often replaced with PVC as it is a very versatile material and even simple modifications to the basic properties of the material can lead to a range of applications and different materials formed. One property of PVC is that…

    Synthetic Polymers

    Some molecules contain so many atoms (up to tens of thousands) that understanding their structure would seem to be an impossible task. By recognizing that many of these macromolecules exhibit recurring structural motifs, however, chemists have come to understand how these molecules are constructed and, further, how to synthesize them. These molecules, called polymers, fall into two classes: natural and synthetic. Natural polymers include many of the biomolecules that are essential to life: proteins, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates among them. Synthetic polymers—most of which were developed in just the last 60 or so years—include plastics, synthetic rubbers, and synthetic fibers. We shall study synthetic polymers in this Interchapter and natural polymers in the next one. Enormous industries have been built around synthetic polymer chemistry, which has profoundly changed the quality of life in the modern world. It is estimated that about half of all industrial research chemists are involved in some aspect of polymer chemistry. Few of us have not heard of nylon, rayon, polycarbonate, polyester, polyethylene, polystyrene, Teflon®, Formican®, and Saran, all of which are synthetic polymers. The technological impact of polymer chemistry is immense and continues to increase.…

    Private Hospital vs Public Hospitals

    Concern over the quality of health care services in Bangladesh has led to loss of faith in low utilization of public health facilities, and increasing outflow of Bangladeshi patients to private hospitals. The public health sector is plagued by uneven demand and perceptions of poor quality. Countrywide, the underutilization of available facilities is of significant concern. For example, one study shows that the overall utilization rate for public health care services is as low as 30% (Ricardo et al. 2004). Moreover, the trend of utilization of public health care services has been declining between 1999 and 2003, while the rate of utilization of private health care facilities for the same period has been increasing (CIET Canada 2003). The unavailability of doctors and nurses, as well as their negative attitudes and behaviors, are major hindrances to the utilization of public hospitals. The situation is further compounded by lack of drugs, and long travel and waiting times (HEU 2003a). What is particularly disturbing is the lack of empathy of the service providers, their generally callous and casual demeanor, their aggressive pursuit of monetary gains, their poor levels of competence and, occasionally, their disregard for the suffering that patients endure without being able to voice their concerns—all of these service failures are reported frequently in the print media. Such failures can play a powerful role in shaping patients’ negative attitudes and dissatisfaction with health care service providers and health care itself. The private health care sector also deserves close scrutiny as about 70% of the patients seek medical care from this sector (World Bank 2003). Between 1996 and 2000, private hospitals grew around 15% per annum (HEU 2003b).…
