Abstract:

This paper summarizes the existing advantages of coal⁃based polyolefins in terms of resource endowment, cost competitiveness, and proprietary technologies, while providing an in⁃depth analysis of the practical challenges it faces in process accumulation, product structure upgrading, and low⁃carbon transition pathways.We argue that the industry must shift from scale⁃driven expansion to a quality⁃ and value⁃centric development paradigm, foster the integration of olefin production with low⁃carbon energy resources such as green hydrogen, advance continuous carbon reduction strategies, and explore region⁃specific, wide collaboration pathways to achieve high⁃quality and sustainable growth.

Key words: coal?based polyolefins, coal chemical industry, low?carbon transformation, industrial chain collaboration
