The domestic EVA industry has been developing rapidly in recent years, driven by the demand of photovoltaic and other markets. Since 2022, a number of domestic EVA projects have been pushed forward. On the one hand, the domestic EVA leader represented by Dongfang Shenghong has launched a photovoltaic-grade EVA project to further consolidate the leading low position in the domestic market, at the same time, expanding the production capacity of Eva photovoltaic materials to alleviate the supply shortage of high-end EVA products in China; at the same time, there are also Sinochem Quanzhou, Sinochem refining and chemical enterprises such as the expansion of capacity to increase domestic EVA supply; on the other hand, there is no lack of hundred Hong Chemical, Ningxia coal industry and other“New players” into the game, and strive to share in this piece of the market share. Below we review the recent progress of domestic EVA projects. Sinochem expands capacity in Quanzhou to 140,000 tonnes on November 2, the Environmental Impact Report of the construction project of the Sinochem Quanzhou 100,000-tonne-a-year Eva plant expanded to 140,000 tonnes-a-year project was announced.

According to the briefing, the 200,000-tonne-a-year Eva plant that Sinochem Quanzhou had previously approved was completed in July, with a first phase of 100,000-tonne-a-year 2021. In June 2022, it passed independent environmental inspection and acceptance, the other 100,000 tons/year Eva plant has been delayed construction, and the prophase procurement work is being carried out. The expansion project is based on the existing 100,000 tons/year Eva plant expansion, Sinochem Quanzhou according to market development, the introduction of international advanced technology related to EVA plant, it is proposed to expand the capacity of the existing 100,000 ton/year Eva plant, that is, to add a tubular reactor after the existing dual reactor, and to improve and optimize the existing plant system, it can expand its production capacity to 140,000 tonnes per year.
