Development Trends of Building Material Grade Cellulose Ether Industry

Apr 18,2024
The stable development of China's construction industry continues to drive the market demand for building material grade cellulose ether
The field of building materials is the main demand area for cellulose ether. Cellulose ether has excellent properties such as thickening, water retention, and retarding, so it is widely used to improve and optimize the performance of building materials, including pre mixed mortar (including wet mixed mortar and dry mixed mortar), PVC resin manufacturing, latex paint, putty, tile adhesive, insulation mortar, floor materials, etc., to meet the requirements of energy conservation and environmental protection, improve the construction efficiency of buildings and decorations, and indirectly apply it to the masonry and plastering construction of various types of building projects, as well as interior and exterior wall decoration. Due to the large scale of investment in the field of construction engineering, various types of construction projects are scattered and diverse, with significant differences in construction progress. Building material grade cellulose ether has the characteristics of wide range of use, high market demand, and dispersed customers.
Among the building materials grade HPMC of middle and high-end models, the building materials grade HPMC with a gel temperature of 75 ℃ is mainly used in dry mixed mortar and other fields, which has strong high-temperature resistance and good application effect. Its application performance is irreplaceable for the building materials grade HPMC with a gel temperature of 60 ℃, and high-end customers have high requirements for the quality stability of this type of products. At the same time, the production of HPMC with a gel temperature of 75 ℃ has certain technical difficulties. The investment scale of the production plant is large, and the entry threshold is high. The product price is significantly higher than the building material grade HPMC with a gel temperature of 60 ℃.
High end PVC specific HPMC is an important additive in the production of PVC. Although the amount of HPMC added is small and accounts for a low proportion of PVC production costs, the product has good application effects and therefore requires high quality. There are few domestic and foreign manufacturers producing PVC specific HPMC, and the price of imported products is much higher than that of domestic products.
According to data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2021, China's urbanization rate (the proportion of urban population to the national population) reached 64.72%, an increase of 0.83 percentage points from the end of 2020, and an increase of 14.77 percentage points from the urbanization rate of 49.95% in 2010, indicating that China has entered the middle and later stages of urbanization development. Correspondingly, the growth of total demand in the domestic real estate market has also entered a relatively stable stage, and the demand differentiation in different cities is becoming increasingly evident. For example, the demand for improved medium and large unit housing in small and medium-sized cities with population outflow has increased, while the housing demand for new citizens in large cities with large population inflow continues to increase. In the future, with the decrease in the proportion of China's manufacturing industry and the increase in the proportion of the service industry, the increase in flexible employment forms such as innovation and entrepreneurship, and the development of flexible office models, new requirements will be put forward for urban commerce, residential space, and work living balance. The demand for real estate products will become more diversified, and the domestic real estate and construction industries will enter a transitional and transitional period.
