2021.01.08In this article, OKCHEM analyzes the export valume and value data for PBAT and PBS from Jan 2019 to Nov 2020.
1. About China's Export Volume and Value of PBAT from 201901 to 202011
According to China's Customs, the HS code for PBAT is 39079910, which includes (PBT resins, in primary forms, not reinforced or modified) and (Other PBT (polybutylene terephthalate)). PBAT is classified in this Code. Here the analysis of Chinese export is based on this HS code.
PBAT HS: 39079910
From above picture, we can find the fluctuations of export volume (kg) and export value (USD) of HS: 39079910 in 2019 are small while violent in 2020. But the total export periods in 2019 and 2020 are similar. The high demands are in Mar.,Dec.,Jan.. Because of Chinese spring festival, export volume declined in Feb.,2019. In 2020, the great fall is huge in February because of Chinese COVID-19 and in May to June because of outbreak overseas. And then the export volume started to recover slowly.
The main import regions of HS: 39079910 are South Korea, Japan, Netherlands, Italy, Vietnam, India, Thailand, Hongkong, Spain. Compared to 2019, Germany takes the place of Malaysia into the top 10.
2. About China's Export Volume and Value of PBS from 201901 to 202011
PBS HS =39079999
Similar to PBAT, HS code of PBS is 39079999, which also includes (Primary forms of thermoplastic liquid crystal Other polyesters) and (Other polyesters of primary shape). Here the PBS analysis of Chinese export is based on this HS code.
The PBS fluctuations of export volume and export value of HS: 39079910 are also similar to PBAT. The main factor of fluctuations is the influence of sudden COVID-19.
The main import regions of HS: 39079910 are Vietnam, Hongkong, Japan, Russia, Mexico, Thailand, South Korea, India. Compared to 2019, Iran and Malaysia enter into top 10 instead of UAE and Egypt.
