據中東北非財經新聞網2022年6月8日美國紐瓦克報道，包裝材料部分在全球醋酸乙烯單體（VAM）市場的終端用戶方面占有最重要的市場份額。  

根據全球科技行業市場調研機構領導者之一的Fior Markets發布的報告，到2027年前，全球VAM市場規模預計將從2019年的83.6億美元增長到125.1億美元，在2020年-2027年預測期內的年復合增長率為3.8%。 亞太地區是全球領先的VAM市場區域。亞太地區已經擁有非常高的人口密度，而終端用戶行業對包裝材料、黏合劑、涂料和繪畫顏料的需求不斷增長，是亞太地區成為全球VAM市場主導地位的驅動因素。北美是新興市場，由于其已經建立的汽車和包裝工業，VAM需求正在快速增長。

為了增加各自市場份額并滿足亞太地區日益增長的需求，上述公司正集中精力提高其生產能力，采用新的創新生產技術。 

VAM是乙烯醇的醋酸酯。它是一種可大量生產的工業化學制品，它被用來制造其他工業化學品。VAM是一種重要的中間體，用于黏合劑、油漆、涂料、薄膜、紡織品和其他終端產品的各種聚合物和樹脂的制造。VAM市場是由各種用途的衍生品的需求驅動的。其最大的衍生物是聚乙烯醇醋酸乙烯酯(PVA)，由于其對各種基材(包括木材、紙張、塑料薄膜和金屬)的良好粘附性能，主要用于粘合劑。它的其他用途包括油漆、造紙和工業涂料。聚乙烯醇(PVOH)是由PVA生產的，其主要用途包括黏合劑、紡織品、包裝膜、增稠劑和感光涂料。VAM用于乙烯-乙酸乙烯共聚物(EVA)和醋酸乙烯-乙烯共聚乳液(VAE)的制造。含醋酸乙烯少于50%的EVA主要用于薄膜、電線電纜的絕緣。含有50%以上醋酸乙烯酯的EVA主要用作水泥添加劑、涂料和膠黏劑。VAM的另一個快速增長的用途是乙烯乙烯醇共聚物(EVOH)的制造，它被用作食品包裝、汽油箱、塑料瓶和工程聚合物的防滲樹脂。

Global Vinyl Acetate Monomer Market Size & Share To Exceed USD 12.51 Billion By 2027

The packaging segment has the most significant market share in the global Vinyl Acetate Monomer market end-user wise.

As per the report published by Fior Markets, The global vinyl acetate monomer market is expected to grow from USD 8.36 billion in 2019 to USD 12.51 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period 2020-2027. Asia-Pacific stands as the leading market region wise. The region already has very high population density and the increasing demand for the packaging materials, adhesives, coatings, and paints growth of end-user industries are the driving factors for the Asia-Pacific region being the dominant player in the global VAM market. North-America is the emerging market and is growing at a rapid pace due to its already established automobile and packing industry.

To increase their market share and serve the growing demand from the Asia Pacific region firms are focussing on increasing their production capacities with the implementation of new innovative production techniques.

Vinyl acetate monomer is the acetate ester of vinyl alcohol. It is an industrial chemical produced in large quantities, and it is used to make other industrial chemicals. VAM (Vinyl acetate monomer) is a key intermediate which is used in the making of various polymers and resins of adhesives, paints, coatings, films, textiles and other end-products. This market is driven by the demand from its derivatives which has various uses. Its largest derivative is polyvinyl acetate (PVA) which is mainly used in adhesives due to its good adhesion properties to various substrates including wood, paper, plastic films and metals. Its other uses include paints, paper and industrial coatings. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) is manufactured from PVA, is its second-largest consumer. Main uses for PVOH include adhesives, textiles, packaging films, thickeners and photosensitive coatings. VAM is consumed in the manufacturing of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) and vinyl acetate-ethylene (VAE). EVA, contains less than 50% vinyl acetate, is primarily used mainly for films, wire and cable insulation. VAE, contains more than 50% vinyl acetate, is mainly used as cement additives, paints and adhesives. Another fast-growing use of VAM is the manufacturing of ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH), it is used as a barrier resin in food packaging, gasoline tanks, plastic bottles and, and in engineering polymers.
