The global vinyl acetate market size is projected to expand at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to increasing demand for solar power in developed and emerging economies.
Vinyl acetate is a colorless chemical compound that is precursor to polyvinyl acetate, a crucial industrial polymer. It is prepared by reacting ethylene with oxygen and acetic acid over a palladium catalyst. It does not emit toxic gases. Polyvinyl acetate makes glue highly viscous, which is utilized in various industrial applications.
The outbreak of COVID-19 led to halt of supply of raw materials, thus disrupting various industries, leading to low supply and high demand for vinyl acetate. However, relaxation of restriction eased the logistics trade activities, which is estimated to help the market recover soon.
Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities
- Growing demand for paints & coatings on account of increasing spent on infrastructure development is expected to have a positive influence on the vinyl acetate market growth during the forecast period.
- Rising packaging innovation is expected to propel the growth of the market.
- Increasing focus of industry players on expanding production capacity can boost the market growth.
- Fluctuating cost of crude has a direct impact on the vinyl acetate market price, which in turn, can hinder the market growth.
- Growing demand in Asia Pacific for EVA-based photovoltaic application is expected to provide new opportunities for the growth of the market.
- Rising trend of eco-friendly packaging is anticipated to foster the market growth.
