Demand For Building Materials-grade Cellulose Ethers

In 2011, China's CMC production capacity was about 300,000 tons. With the growing demand for high-quality cellulose ethers in the pharmaceutical, food, and daily chemical industries, the domestic demand for other cellulose ether products other than CMC is increasing. The production capacity of MC/HPMC is about 120,000 tons, and the production capacity of HEC is about 20,000 tons. PAC is still in the stage of promotion and application in China. With the development of large offshore oil fields and the development of building materials, food, and chemical industries, the use and fields of PAC are increasing and expanding year by year, and the production capacity exceeds 10,000 tons.
