Production and Market of Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone in China

With increasing demand from downstream industries and support from Chinese government, PVP production has grown rapidly in the past few years, and China has become one of most important PVP production countries in the world. However, serious supply surplus has led to intense competition, thus driving down PVP price. How Chinese PVP producers deal with this situation? Despite large capacity and output, imported PVP still takes up a considerable market share in many downstream industries, what kinds of product do the end users need? Besides the above questions, we would also focus on: How about current technological progress? What are the influencing factors for PVP pricing? How is the trend for PVP and downstream industries in the future? What are the strength and weakness of current PVP producers?
