Modified high-density polyethylene (HDPE) market demand is strong and the industry scale continues to expand

Modified high-density polyethylene (HDPE) is based on high-density polyethylene and modified through filling, blending, reinforcement and other production processes to improve the product’s wear resistance, flame retardancy, viscosity and other properties. Modified high-density polyethylene has excellent properties and is mainly used in insulation materials, pipe materials, wires and cables, rail transit, home appliances and other fields. In recent years, with the advancement of modification technology and the upgrading of demand, the market size of modified high-density polyethylene has been stable. increase.

my country is a major producer of polyethylene. However, due to backward technology, the polyethylene market is severely homogenized. With consumption upgrading, more and more companies have begun to seek differentiated development through modification. High-density polyethylene is a type of polyethylene. With the modification and differentiated development of polyethylene, the modified high-density polyethylene market is also facing good development opportunities.

According to the “2022-2026 China Modified High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Industry Market Monitoring and Future Development Prospects Research Report released by the Industrial Research Center 》shows that after years of development and accumulation, high-density polyethylene modification technology has become more mature, and the scale of my country’s modified high-density polyethylene market continues to rise, with an average annual compound growth rate of more than 7.4% from 2016 to 2021, and has developed to At present, the production scale of the modified high-density polyethylene industry has reached more than 700,000 tons. The market demand for modified high-density polyethylene is strong, and the future market development space is broad. It is expected that the production scale of my country’s modified high-density polyethylene industry will reach more than 850,000 tons in 2026.

High-density polyethylene modification processes can be divided into cross-linking modification, toughening modification, blending modification, alloy modification and others. The properties of modified high-density polyethylene prepared by different modification processes are different, among which cross-linking modification Joint modification is the main modification process of high-density polyethylene, accounting for about 60% of the modified high-density polyethylene market. High-density polyethylene is a polymer with low melting point and low viscosity. Cross-linking modification is a process that uses chemical or physical methods to change high-density polyethylene molecules from a linear molecular structure into a three-dimensional network structure.

There are a large number of modified high-density polyethylene production companies in my country, and market competition is increasingly intensifying. In the domestic market, modified high-density polyethylene production companies are mainly small and medium-sized enterprises, with low technical levels and uneven product quality. In the future, The market structure of modified high-density polyethylene still needs to be further optimized. At present, the largest domestic modified high-density polyethylene manufacturers include Wanma Polymer Materials, Darun Plastics, Kingfa Technology, Xinda Plastics, etc.

Industry analysts said that modified high-density polyethylene is widely used in wires and cables, pipe materials, household appliances and other fields. In recent years, , with the advancement of modification technology and the differentiated development of the polyethylene market, the market size of modified high-density polyethylene continues to rise. There are many modified high-density polyethylene manufacturers in my country, but most of them are small and medium-sized enterprises. Under fierce market competition, the modified high-density polyethylene market will continue to converge on leading companies.
