This subscriber webinar presentation provides additional insight into the polyolefins market.  Material is sourced from the Global Bimodal HDPE Market - 2015 report.

This report analyzes various technological and commercial aspects of EPDM, the prospects for which are linked to demand in the growing automotive industry, its primary end use sector. The report summarizes the conventional solution, slurry, and gas phase processes that have been implemented. It also describes modern-day advances in EPDM technology, including the introduction of a recently developed, bio-based route to EPDM. In addition, a comparison of the cost of production of EPDM in various regions via these processes is provided.

Analysis and forecast of global supply/demand and capacity for HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE and polypropylene, including actual 2014 data and forecasts to 2030.

This report provides a deep technical review of the commercial and developing technologies to produce bisphenol A based liquid and solid epoxy resins, as well as epoxy phenol novolac resins.  Their cost of production has been estimated for plants located in the U.S. and China, where capacity is increasing rapidly. As the industry is currently restructuring, a high-level analysis of the business and strategic considerations from the perspective of a company entering or expanding into the epoxy resin market has been included in this report. This analysis is underpinned by a review of end-use sector consumption as well as global and regional market dynamics.
