Synthetic paper (synthetic paper) is the use of chemical raw materials such as olefins and then add some additives made of, with a soft texture, tensile strength, high water resistance, light resistance to heat, and resistance to chemical corrosion and no environmental pollution , Good ventilation, widely used in high-level art, maps, pictures, high-end books and other printing.

Synthetic paper has been abroad for more than 30 years of development history, especially in the United States, Japan, Canada and other developed countries, China Taiwan started earlier, faster development. With the strengthening of global environmental awareness, ordinary fiber paper caused a lot of pollution, speed up the development of synthetic paper, the new synthetic paper varieties continue to expand the scope of application of synthetic paper. At present, the world sales of synthetic paper products to 10% annual rate of increase, synthetic paper part of the ordinary fiber to replace the pace of accelerated.

China's synthetic paper started late, the market development is not enough, the current annual amount of 3-4 million tons, mainly for imports, basically all PP synthetic paper, used as clothing bags, handbags, woven bags, offset printing, screen printing Advertising printing, books, printing trademarks, which accounted for 40% of advertising inkjet, printing trademark consumption accounted for 15%, woven bags, offset printing, screen printing the amount of 10%, bag, bag consumption accounted for 10% Book consumption accounted for 5%. According to the thickness of the amount of division, 40μm-50μm dosage accounted for 30%, 90μm-150μm dosage accounted for 40%, other thickness of the amount of 30%.

With the strengthening of global environmental awareness, PP synthetic paper in the country has a wide range of applications. China's current paper mainly from the pulp, wood pulp and other plant fiber production, due to the complexity of the process, a large number of pollutants in the production process, the state environmental protection departments have been closed according to the law on thousands of small paper mills, due to restrictions on deforestation, Coated paper required wood pulp will all rely on imports. China is the world's paper production, consumption and import power. Statistics from the National Development and Reform Commission show that China's paper consumption has grown at double-digit rates per year over the past 10 years. China's paper and paperboard consumption in 2003 was about 48 million tons, accounting for 16% of the global consumption. According to the China Paper Association predicted that by 2010, China's annual consumption of paper and paper will reach 70 million tons. China's paper demand for 2/3 for packaging materials, 1/3 for printing, even if 5% of the printing and packaging paper is replaced by synthetic paper, the demand will be very impressive.
