據安迅思6月23日消息稱,美美國化學理事會(ACC)周二表示,盡管美國經濟強勁,但由于冬季暴風雪導致許多工廠關閉,2021年美國化學品總產量將僅增長1.4%。
ACC在其年中形勢和展望報告中稱,2021年基礎化學品產量將增長0.5%。
根據ACC的數據,塑料樹脂的產量在2020年疫情期間上升后,可能在2021年下降。
美國ACC政策分析和統計高級主管Marth Moore表示,由于冬季暴風雪的影響,該委員會削減了此前對2021年產量的估計。
Moore稱,庫存減少,這應會鼓勵今年余下時間的生產。下半年的產出應該會比上半年高得多。
根據ACC的數據,2021年美國化學品出口總額應達到5256億美元,為2018年5488億美元以來的最高水平。到2022年,化學品的出口額應達到5687億美元。
2023年,美國化學品就業人數應恢復到疫情前的水平,達到54.4萬人。

US chem output to grow 1.4% in '21 amid surging GDP
Despite a strong economy, total US chemical production should grow by just 1.4% in 2021, reflecting the disruption caused by winter storms that shut down many of the nation's plants, the American Chemistry Council (ACC) said on Tuesday.
Production of basic chemicals should grow by 0.5% in 2021, the ACC said in its mid-year situation and outlook report.
Production volumes for plastic resins could decline in 2021 after rising in 2020 during the pandemic, according to ACC figures.
Because of the winter storm, the ACC pared back its earlier estimates for 2021 production output, said Marth Moore, the ACC's senior director of policy analysis and statistics.
Inventories are lean, and that should encourage production for the rest of the year, Moore said. Output in the second half of the year should be much higher than that during the first half.
Total chemical shipments in the US should reach $525.6bn in 2021, the highest since 2018, when they reached $548.8bn, according to the ACC. In 2022, chemical shipments should reach $568.7bn
US chemical employment should return to pre-pandemic levels in 2023, reaching 544,000 employed.
