Market Definition: Global Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Market
Polyvinyl Chloride is a type of polymer which is produced by polymerization of vinyl chloride monomer. The material is used instead of traditional materials like iron, copper or wood owing to its strength and durability and resistance to corrosion. The purest form of polyvinyl chloride is white, brittle solid and marginally resolvable in tetrahydrofuran while insoluble in alcohol. It can be produced with the help of phthalates and plasticizers. The PVC is used in various applications such as building & construction, automotive and others.
Market Drivers:
- Owing to a wide range of applications in the household, commercial and industrial sectors drives the market growth
- Increasing disposable income in emerging economies of Brazil, China and India is driving the market growth
- Increasing application of PVC in consumer and electrical & electronic industries acts as a driver for the growth of this market
- Increase in use of un-plasticized PVC in place of wood used in window frames and sills can act as a market driver
Market Restraints:
- Recent economic slowdown has affected automotive and construction markets in the U.S. & Canada is hampering the market growth
- Changing demand-supply spectrum owing to strengthening of regulations in Asia-Pacific region is restricting the growth of this market
- Global environmental concerns such as carbon emission and global warming also hinders the market growth
