China is becoming less dependent on the import market for PP and if all twelve new projects that were planning to come online in 2019 successfully commissioned, demand for import PP here might limit to certain grades only. 

In fact, twelve new PP projects in China with a combined capacity of more than 4.4 million tons per annum are scheduled to come online within 2019 and about 65% of the total capacity might reach the market in the first half of the year.

The following table detailed out the capacity and estimated start-up time for all mentioned plants:
