Polyacrylamide China Product Research Report

The Chinese PAM industry has been driven by, and subject to, the EOR process. The easy availability of production technology of PAM generates a number of small-scale producers and determines that the Chinese production is in the status of chaos. This report consists of the following parts:  Production & Market Information In this part, the situation of polyacrylamide (PAM) has been introduced and discussed from aspects of history, production, market, import & export, consumption, etc. We took great effort in summarizing the situation of major Chinese manufacturers, analysizing the import situation of PAM in 2001.  Production Benchmarking of PAM In this part, the production processes for PAM have been compared and described. A rout from acrylonitrile (AN) to acrylamide (AM) by catalytic hydration method and the rout from AM to PAM by aqueous solution polymerization method have been discussed in details. A model has been set up to reflect the actual rout in China. A scientific method is employed to estimate the raw material cost, manufacturing cost and total production cost in China, in order to assess the competitiveness of Chinese production technology and to find out how the Chinese producers finalize the price fixing for their materials.  Situation of Chinese Manufacturers In this part, the Chinese AM & PAM manufacturers that have been located have been introduced from aspects of history, production technology, production, marketing strategy, future plan, comments to the other industrial players, etc. The information is based on the extensive telephone interview. The aim of this report is:  to describe the overall situation of PAM industry in China  to reflect how the Chinese PAM industry grew in the past years  to uncover how Chinese manufacturers perform in the world market  to evaluate how competitive the Chinese products are  to predict how this industry will go in the future
