Maleic anhydride graft polymers are a class of polymers obtained by grafting maleic anhydride as a monomer onto other materials under appropriate temperature conditions. The primary grafting methods include solution processing, melt processing, radiation-induced grafting, and solid-phase grafting, with melt processing being the most commonly used and industrially significant technique. These grafted polymers combine the polar anhydride groups from maleic anhydride with non-polar polyolefin segments, enabling their widespread application in modifying materials such as PA, PP, and PE. They are extensively utilized in wire and cable masterbatches, wood-plastic composites, and hot-melt adhesives, primarily serving as coupling and compatibilizing agents to enhance interfacial adhesion and material performance.

The maleic anhydride graft polymer industry demonstrates three key characteristics: high technical specialization, finely segmented application fields, and remarkable modification effects. As a crucial additive for polymer modification, this product significantly enhances substrate materials' polarity, compatibility, and adhesive properties through grafting reactions between maleic anhydride groups and polymer backbones, playing an indispensable role in plastic modification, adhesives, coatings, and related fields. Industry technical barriers primarily manifest in controlling grafting ratios, regulating molecular weight distribution, and ensuring process stability, where mature grafting technologies can impart ideal polarity and reactivity to polymers while maintaining the mechanical properties of base materials. Application trends show stable growth in traditional sectors like polyolefin modification, while emerging applications such as compatibilizers for biodegradable materials and interfacial modifiers for high-performance composites are becoming innovation hotspots. Market drivers stem from material upgrade demands driven by environmental regulations, particularly requirements for enhancing traditional plastics' performance and recyclability; special material needs arising from the rapid development of new energy industries, including functional polymer applications in lithium battery separator coatings and photovoltaic module encapsulation materials; and automotive lightweighting trends promoting modified polymers' use in interior and structural components. Notably, raw material price volatility and downstream industries' growing demand for customization are pushing manufacturers toward higher-value specialty graft polymers.
