From 2015 to 2021, China's bisphenol A production continued to grow and its development was relatively stable. In 2021, China's bisphenol A production is expected to reach about 1.7 million tons, and the comprehensive operating rate of the major units of bisphenol A is about 77%, which is at a high level. It is expected that the annual output is expected to gradually increase from 2022 onwards, with the successive commissioning of the BPA plant under construction. In 2016-2020, China's bisphenol A imports grew slowly, and the import dependence of bisphenol A was close to 30%. It is expected that with the substantial increase in domestic production capacity in the future, the import dependence of bisphenol A is expected to continue to decline.
The downstream demand structure of bisphenol A is concentrated, mainly used as PC and epoxy resin, accounting for almost half of the total.'s apparent consumption of bisphenol A is expected to be about 2.19 million tonnes in 2021, up 2% YoY. In the future, with the downstream PC and epoxy resin new devices are put into production, the demand for bisphenol A is expected to increase significantly.
The new PC capacity is large, driving the growth of bisphenol A demand. China is an importer of polycarbonate, and there is an urgent need for import substitution. According to Baichuan Yingfu statistics, in 2020, China's PC output was 819,000 tons, a year-on-year decrease of 19.6%, the import volume was 1.63 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 1.9%, the export volume was about 251,000 tons, the apparent consumption was 2.198 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 7.0%, the self-sufficiency rate was only 37.3%, China's PC import demand is urgent.
PCB industry is the main downstream application of epoxy resin in the field of electronics and electricity. The core material of PCB is copper clad laminate, and epoxy resin accounts for about 15% of the cost of copper clad laminate. With the rapid evolution of new generation information technologies such as big data, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and 5G, as the basic material of the electronics industry, it is expected that the demand and growth rate of copper clad laminates will increase year by year.
