1. Polypropylene Prices Overview E-mail : info@chemanalyst.com | website : www.chemanalyst.com/ Market Overview Quarterly Update on Global Polypropylene Market Asia The Q3 results of the Asian Polypropylene remained lull despite gradual pick up in the economy in the third quarter. In southeast Asia and India, fears of a second Covid-19 wave extended semi-lockdowns in several countries, pressuring the recovery in demand for the finished plastic products. Polymer prices in southeast and south Asia remained suppressed in the mid-August because of weak fundamentals but rebounded in the initial weeks of September when supply tightened due to lesser US-origin PP supplies to Asia backed with robust PP demand in China.

2. Polypropylene Prices Overview E-mail : info@chemanalyst.com | website : www.chemanalyst.com/ North America North America remained silent in terms of showing any big move as several US manufacturers remained shut and production loss aggravated. Two major players LyondellBasell and INEOS declared force majeure on polypropylene (PP) production during the quarter while they opted for precautionary shutdowns ahead of the hurricane Laura, thereby restricting global availability of the product. Polypropylene prices took a substantial leap during the quarter with limited export activity with major increases expected in the next two months. Europe PP demand seemed to improve during Q3 2020 with the demand in Europe gradually improving towards the end of the year, turning notably stronger than in Asia. Resilient demand from the automotive and medical sector further strengthened the market outlook. Total’s force majeure on the PP plant, announced in early August, did not impact the market negatively, as other producers reported lesser inventories while buying activity seems turning largely to pre-pandemic levels in the upcoming quarter.

4. Polypropylene Prices Overview E-mail : info@chemanalyst.com | website : www.chemanalyst.com/ About Polypropylene is the world’s second most consumed polymer in the world, possessing remarkable characteristics such as strength, rigidity and the ability to be produced in a variety of molecular weights and crystallinities. Around 30% of the global PP demand comes from packaging applications, among versatile sectors (such as-automotive, sports equipment, clothing, medical components etc.) that it serves. Polypropylene is globally manufactured from the polymerization of feedstock Propylene gas in the presence of a catalyst, which could be either Ziegler-Natta or a metallocene catalyst. Various polymerization conditions (temperature, pressure and reactant concentrations) are considered as per the polymer grade required. The polymerization conditions may include either a gas-phase (fluidized bed or stirred reactor) or a liquid-phase process (slurry or solution). Most of the PP products are processed by Extrusion Blow Molding, Injection Molding, and General-Purpose Extrusion processes. Different grades of PP produced such as Homopolymers, Random Copolymer, Impact Copolymer, Thermoforming, Films etc. using these processes are used for different set of applications in several downstream industries.
