The Injection grade segment is expected to account for the second-largest market share during the forecasted period.

CPVC is available in two grades, injection and extrusion, in order to meet specific performance and processing requirements by various applications. Injection-grade CPVC mainly includes pellets and is widely used to manufacture fittings, flange adapters, valves, and others. Manufacturers use machines with hoppers to feed a specific amount of CPVC into the manufacturing system. This manufacturing system uses high-pressure screw to melt the CPVC and mold it into the desired shape

The pellet form segment is expected to account for the second-largest share of the CPVC market during the forecast period in terms of value.

The CPVC market is segmented based on pellet and powder forms. CPVC pellets are solid, small, and cylindrical in shape. The pellets are used to manufacture various end-products such as fittings, valves, and many more. The pellet form CPVC is available in small cylindrical shapes as a common intermediate or raw material used to manufacture various products. During the production of PVC resin pellets, chlorination is used to enhance properties such as heat resistance, flame retardancy, and chemical resistance.

The indirect sales channel segment is expected to account for the second-largest share of the CPVC market during the forecast period in terms of value.

CPVC manufacturers opt for both direct sales and sales through distribution. The selection of sales channels depends on various factors, such as the geographic presence of the manufacturers, customers, and the targeted end-use industries. To be cost-effective in the CPVC industry, which produces products in continuous or large batches, shipments must be made in large quantities, such as truckloads or railcar loads. It is not feasible for a single supplier to meet numerous small orders from customers worldwide. Distributors provide smaller amounts of goods to newer or smaller customers who lack the resources to purchase truckloads directly from suppliers. This helps suppliers reach more people at a more affordable cost.

The solvent method production process segment is expected to account for the second-largest share of the CPVC market during the forecast period in terms of value.

CPVC finds diverse applications in the solvent method process. The solvent method is another production process for CPVC resin. In this approach, PVC is dissolved in a solvent along with a chlorine source, and the resulting solution is then chlorinated. After chlorination, the solvent is removed, leaving behind CPVC resin in the desired form. The drawback of the solvent method lies in its limited heat resistance, elevated production expenses, and the potential for environmental pollution due to the complexity of solvent treatment. The resulting product typically exhibits a chlorinity range of 62% to 65% and finds primary application in coatings and adhesives. One of the challenges that need to be addressed is the proper management of reaction heat, as well as ensuring that the chlorination product properties are uniform.

The chemical & industrial equipment application segment is expected to account for the second-largest share of the CPVC market during the forecast period in terms of value.

The chemical & industrial equipment market is one of the growing application markets for CPVC. CPVC possesses superior strength, performance and safety, making it an ideal system for industrial process applications. Traditionally, engineers and procurement professionals have relied largely on steel and other higher alloys for industrial piping. However, an overall analysis reveals that CPVC often outperforms metallic systems and is more cost-effective over a longer period of time. CPVC industrial piping has a smooth inner surface that resists scaling and fouling, which minimizes friction pressure losses in the fluid flow. This means that CPVC piping offers optimum flow rates, allowing more liquid to be moved using smaller pumps and less energy. Yielding an overall lower installation cost, fewer maintenance and safety concerns, and strong performance with a wide variety of chemicals, CPVC is a material that is gaining attention across various industrial applications, including corrosion-resistant components, industrial fluid handling components, and chemical processing equipment, among others.
