The product is mainly utilized as an intermediate in the chemical industry to produce Vinyl Acetate Copolymers. By percentage segmentation, about 47% of overall VAM produced globally is channelized to manufacture Polyvinyl Acetate (PVA), which is a major compound in adhesives, water-based paints, paper coatings and acrylic fibers applications. Another 30 per cent is utilized to produce Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVOH) which is used as an intermediate in glass laminated and packaging films. The remaining percentage is processed to manufacture derivatives like Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA), Vinyl Acetate Ethylene (VAE) and Ethylene Vinyl Alcohol (EVOH). Since EVA and EVOH are widely being utilized in new potential applications like renewable energy and photovoltaic filaments, demand for feedstock VAM is likely to witness an appreciable surge in the coming years.

Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM) Pricing Overview E-mail : info@chemanalyst.com | website : www.chemanalyst.com/ Market Overview Asia Spate of plant turnarounds from Taiwan and South Korea throughout the third quarter of 2020 tightened the overall availability of VAM cargoes in Southeast Asia. Thus, prices of VAM in Q3 of 2020 Southeast Asia averaged around USD 807 per MT influenced by its healthy demand fundamentals and scarce product availability. Despite the restricted availability, paramount producers like Celanese and Dairen Chemicals continued to operate their plants at reduced rates amid fears of uncertainty prevailing from the second wave of Coronavirus in several parts of the region. Downstream demand for derivatives like Ethyl Vinyl Acetate (EVA) and Poly Vinyl Acetate (PVA) witnessed marginal recovery in Northeast Asia as countries restarted their business activities to save the sputtering economy.
