Polyvinyl alcohol is the preferred choice of materials for packaging as it exhibits the properties of solubility and biodegradability apart from being an excellent oxygen barrier. Increasing demand for packaged food among consumers is expected to spur the growth of the global Polyvinyl Alcohol Market. Mo0reover, polyvinyl alcohol has been gaining traction due to rising scrutiny on plastic consumption. In an effort to reduce the harmful effects of plastic, governments and other environmental regulatory bodies are encouraging the use of biodegradable plastics. Demand for polyvinyl alcohol as an emulsifying and dispersing agent also boosts the growth of the market. Furthermore, polyvinyl alcohol is also used in vinyl-based emulsion in an array of applications including paints & coatings, textile, re-dispersible powders, and construction which adds to the growth of the market. Growing constructional activities are expected to provide an opportunity for the global polyvinyl alcohol market as it is used in a number of construction chemicals. However, volatility in the price of raw materials might act as a setback to the growth of the global polyvinyl alcohol market. The global polyvinyl alcohol market is expected to attain a valuation of USD 1,769.2 Mn by the end of 2023.
