做亚克力挤出板、做导光板、做卫浴洁具、做车灯配光镜的老板,PMMA这个料占了你材料成本的大头。进口PMMA正牌一吨两万多,国产PMMA副牌只要一万出头——但国产PMMA"透光率不够、色差大"的传言也让很多人不敢换。今天把国产PMMA三家头部给你算笔账。
PMMA是什么 国产产能格局
PMMA(聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯)俗称亚克力、有机玻璃,透光率高达92%以上,是透明塑料中光学性能突出的品种,大量用于挤出板、导光板、车灯、卫浴、显示面板等。全球PMMA市场长期被赢创、三菱丽阳、住友化学、奇美等外资企业主导,高端光学级PMMA尤其依赖进口。
国产PMMA经过近十年发展,已形成一定规模。万华化学在烟台建有PMMA生产装置,一期8万吨/年于2019年投产,设计产能为当时全球最大单套PMMA粒子树脂生产装置;二期8万吨/年于2022年投产,合计16万吨/年,且实现MMA单体到PMMA树脂的全产业链自主供应。双象股份(苏州+重庆基地)产能达15.5万吨/年,是国内首家实现高端光学级PMMA规模化生产的内资企业。江西熠亮光电新材料有限公司2021年建成2万吨/年PMMA装置,2023年扩能至5万吨/年。
外资在华方面,赢创南通工厂22万吨、三菱丽阳张家港工厂18万吨、住友化学惠州工厂15万吨、奇美镇江工厂等仍占据高端光学级市场。但国产PMMA在一般挤出板、卫浴、广告牌等中低端领域已实现大规模替代。
PMMA副牌 透光率和色差是关键
PMMA副牌是原厂聚合生产线上透光率或色差小幅偏离标准的原生树脂。PMMA的核心指标是透光率、雾度和色差(黄度指数)。副牌PMMA通常透光率略低1-2个百分点,或者黄度指数略高,熔指也可能有偏差。
副牌来源仍是四大类:开停车头尾料、牌号切换过渡料、聚合工艺波动导致透光率或色差小幅偏离的批次、副线尾料。对于做一般挤出板、广告牌、卫浴配件、非光学要求透明件,副牌PMMA完全够用。
和回料的区别:PMMA回料经过再次挤出后,透光率明显下降、色差加重,板材发黄发雾。副牌PMMA是原厂原生聚合粒子,透光率只是略偏,板材透明度仍然很好。买PMMA副牌一定要切板观察透光性——副牌做的板仍然清透,回料做的板发雾发黄。
万华化学 一体化PMMA龙头
万华化学在烟台工业园建有PMMA树脂生产装置,一期8万吨/年于2019年投产,是当时全球最大单套PMMA粒子树脂生产装置;二期8万吨/年于2022年投产,合计16万吨/年。万华PMMA的核心优势在于全产业链自主——从石油气到MMA单体再到PMMA树脂,原料全过程自主供应,管道输送,成本和质量控制能力行业领先。
万华PMMA副牌的特点是批次稳定——毕竟是万华的大型一体化装置,工艺控制成熟。副牌主要来源于牌号切换和工艺微调批次,透光率偏差可控。对于做挤出板、卫浴配件、一般透明件的客户,万华副牌PMMA在国产料中属于稳妥之选。包装以大包装为主。
双象股份 光学级PMMA内资先锋
双象股份在苏州和重庆建有生产基地,PMMA产能达15.5万吨/年,是国内首家实现高端光学级PMMA规模化生产的内资企业。重庆双象光学材料一期一阶段7.5万吨/年PMMA项目于2024年4月试生产。双象在光学级PMMA领域的技术积累在国内处于前列。
双象PMMA副牌的特点是光学性能底子好——既然是做光学级起家的企业,其副牌虽然色差或透光率略偏,但底子比一般改性厂的PMMA好。对于做显示面板扩散板、一般导光板、车灯配光镜等对光学性能有一定要求但非顶级的制品,双象副牌值得关注。
江西熠亮光电 后起之秀
江西熠亮光电新材料有限公司2021年建成2万吨/年PMMA装置,2023年扩能至5万吨/年。熠亮光电地处江西,依托当地化工产业基础,专注PMMA和光学材料生产。作为国产PMMA的后起之秀,熠亮光电在中低端挤出板和一般透明件领域有一定市场。
熠亮PMMA副牌的特点是性价比突出——产能规模较小但灵活性强,副牌价格在国产PMMA中属于偏低梯队。对于做广告牌、一般挤出板、非关键透明件的客户,熠亮副牌成本优势明显。产品以小包装为主,适合中小批量采购。
PMMA副牌进厂 透光色差必测
第一,测透光率和雾度。PMMA副牌最核心的指标就是透光率和雾度。进货前要求供应商提供同批次透光率和雾度数据,到货后用雾度仪复测。透光率低2个点,做出来的板就明显发暗。
第二,观察色差。PMMA副牌的色差(黄度指数)容易偏高。切板观察板面是否清透,如果发黄发雾,说明黄度指数偏高。做白色透明件和有色透明件对色差的容忍度不同,采购前确认你的产品能接受什么范围。
第三,按应用分级。光学级导光板、车灯配光镜用正牌稳妥;一般挤出板、广告牌、卫浴配件可以用副牌。不要拿副牌去做要求高透光率的显示面板——透光率差一点,终端客户一眼就能看出来。

For owners who make acrylic extrusion panels, light guide plates, bathroom fixtures, or car light mirrors, PMMA accounts for the bulk of your material costs. Imported PMMA is a genuine brand costing over 20,000 yuan per ton, while domestic secondary brands are just over 10,000 yuan—but rumors about domestic PMMA "insufficient light transmittance and large color difference" also make many people hesitant to switch. Today, I'll break down the top three domestic PMMA brands for you. What is
PMMA? Domestic production capacity
PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), commonly known as acrylic or acrylic, has a light transmittance of over 92%. It is the type of transparent plastic with outstanding optical performance and is widely used in extruded panels, light guide plates, car lights, bathrooms, display panels, and more. The global PMMA market has long been dominated by foreign companies such as Evonik, Mitsubishi Liyang, Sumitomo Chemical, and Chimei, with high-end optical-grade PMMA especially dependent on imports. After nearly a decade of development,
domestic PMMA has reached a certain scale. Wanhua Chemical has built a PMMA production unit in Yantai, with Phase I at 80,000 tons per year commissioned in 2019, designed to be the world's largest single PMMA particle resin production unit at the time; Phase II (80,000 tons/year) started production in 2022, totaling 160,000 tons per year, and has achieved independent supply of the entire industry chain from MMA monomers to PMMA resin. Shuangxiang Co., Ltd. (Suzhou + Chongqing base) has a capacity of 155,000 tons per year, making it the first domestic enterprise in China to achieve large-scale production of high-end optical-grade PMMA. Jiangxi Yiliang Optoelectronics New Materials Co., Ltd. completed a 20,000-ton/year PMMA unit in 2021, expanding capacity to 50,000 tons/year in 2023.
Foreign investment in China still dominates the high-end optical-grade market, including Evonik's Nantong factory with 220,000 tons, Mitsubishi's Liyang Zhangjiagang plant with 180,000 tons, Sumitomo Chemical's Huizhou plant with 150,000 tons, and Chimei's Zhenjiang factory. However, domestic PMMA has already achieved large-scale replacement in mid- and low-end fields such as general extrusion boards, bathroom fixtures, and billboards.
PMMA sub-brand: light transmittance and color
PMMA difference are the original polymerization production line, which slightly deviates from standards for light transmittance or color difference. The core PMMA indicators are light transmittance, haze, and color difference (yellowness index). Second-brand PMMA usually has slightly lower transmittance of 1-2 percentage points, or slightly higher yellowness index, and melting index may also have deviations.
Second-brand sources still fall into four main categories: start-and-stop head-and-tail materials, grade switching transition materials, batches with slight deviations in light transmittance or color difference caused by polymerization process fluctuations, and auxiliary line tailings. For general extruded boards, billboards, bathroom accessories, and non-optical transparent parts, second-brand PMMA is completely sufficient. Difference between
and re-brand: After further extrusion, PMMA re-stock significantly decreases light transmittance, worsens color differences, and the board becomes yellow and foggy. Second-brand PMMA is original factory polymer particles, with only slightly off-limits light transmittance, but the board transparency remains very good. When buying second-brand PMMA, be sure to cut and observe light transmission—sub-brand boards remain clear, while boards made with recycled material appear foggy and yellow.
Wanhua Chemical Leading integrated PMMA manufacturer
Wanhua Chemical has built a PMMA resin production unit in Yantai Industrial Park, with Phase I at 80,000 tons per year commissioned in 2019, making it the world's largest single PMMA particle resin production unit at the time; Phase II with 80,000 tons per year started production in 2022, totaling 160,000 tons per year. Wanhua PMMA's core advantage lies in full industry chain autonomy—from LPG to MMA monomer to PMMA resin, raw material supply and pipeline delivery, industry-leading cost and quality control capabilities.
Wanhua PMMA sub-brand features stable batch production—after all, it is Wanhua's large-scale integrated unit with mature process control. Sub-brand mainly comes from grade switching and process fine-tuning batches, with controllable light transmittance deviation. For customers producing extruded panels, bathroom accessories, and general transparent parts, Wanhua's sub-brand PMMA is a reliable choice among domestic materials. Packaging is mainly in large packages.
Shuangxiang Co., Ltd. Domestic pioneer in optical-grade PMMA
Shuangxiang Co., Ltd. has production bases in Suzhou and Chongqing, with a PMMA capacity of 155,000 tons/year, making it the first domestic enterprise in China to achieve large-scale production of high-end optical-grade PMMA. The first phase of the first phase of Chongqing Shuangxiang Optical Materials' 75,000-ton/year PMMA project began trial production in April 2024. Shuangxiang's technical accumulation in optical-grade PMMA is among the top in China. The characteristic of
Shuangxiang PMMA sub-brand is its excellent optical performance foundation—since it started in optics, although its sub-brand has slightly off-the-clock color differences or light transmittance, its foundation is better than that of typical modified factories' PMMA. For products that require certain optical performance but are not top-tier, such as display panel diffusion panels, general light guide plates, and headlight distribution mirrors, Shuangxiang sub-brand is worth attention.
Jiangxi Yiliang Optoelectronics, a rising star
Jiangxi Yiliang Optoelectronics New Materials Co., Ltd. built a 20,000 tons/year PMMA unit in 2021 and expanded capacity to 50,000 tons/year in 2023. Yiliang Optoelectronics is located in Jiangxi, relying on the local chemical industry foundation, focusing on PMMA and optical material production. As a rising star in domestic PMMA, Yiliang Optoelectronics has a certain market in the mid- to low-end extruded panel and general transparent parts sector. The characteristic of
Yiliang PMMA's sub-brand is its outstanding cost-performance ratio—small production capacity but strong flexibility, with sub-brand prices in the lower tier of domestic PMMA. For customers making billboards, general extrusion boards, and non-critical transparent parts, Yiliang sub-brand has a clear cost advantage. Products are mainly in small packages, suitable for small to medium batch purchases.
PMMA sub-brand entering the factory, essential testing for light transmission color difference
First, measure light transmittance and haze. The core indicators of PMMA sub-brand are light transmittance and haze. Before purchase, suppliers are required to provide data on light transmittance and haze for the same batch, and re-tested with a haze meter upon arrival. If the light transmittance is 2 points lower, the finished board will be noticeably darker.
Second, observe color difference. PMMA secondary brands tend to have high color difference (yellowness index). Inspect the panel surface when cutting; if it appears yellow or hazy, it indicates a high yellowness index. White transparent parts and colored transparent parts have different tolerances for color differences; confirm before purchasing, what range your product can accept .
Third, classification by application. Optical-grade light guide plates and headlight mirrors should use genuine brands; Generally, extruded boards, billboards, and bathroom accessories can use secondary brands. Do not use secondary brands to make display panels requiring high light transmittance—if the light transmittance is slightly lower, end customers can immediately recognize it.
