Modified polypropylene exhibits a perfect balance between toughness and stiffness, excellent surface finish, and easy processability, making it suitable for various applications. The COVID-19 drove a shift to remote working and increased voice traffic, residential broadband, and mobile data. The telecom industry responded favorably to this challenge with several operational improvements to ensure the user experience stayed positive. The growth of the telecommunication industry is expected to drive the demand for modified polypropylene as an insulation material in electrical and electronics applications.

 

China accounted for a significant revenue share in the market in 2020. The automotive industry is one of the top pillars of the Chinese economy. Automotive components were traditionally made using steel or other alloys, which resulted in a higher weight of these components, reducing the vehicle’s performance and an increase in carbon emissions. Moreover, the increasing prices of metal alloys due to the rising mining and mineral processing costs resulted in increased overall vehicle costs. Modified polypropylene is produced from blending polypropylene with other polymers and offers superior properties compared to other polyolefins.

 

Food safety is a significant concern globally for which countries have been imposing stringent rules and regulations. These regulations have promoted the utilization of modified polypropylene in packaging solutions. Modified polypropylene does not contain bisphenol A and eliminates the risk of leaching of chemicals in packaged foods. In addition, increasing trade among countries and the need for safer transportation of products have led to an increase in the demand for industrial packaging. This has resulted in increased demand for modified polypropylene in the global packaging industry.
