Carbon Fiber Quality Is As Important As Quantity.

Recently, some media reported that the country

Despite the wide market prospect, China's carbon fiber, which is expensive, has been built on common, basic and low-grade varieties under low technology level and high production cost, making it vulnerable to competition with foreign enterprises.

In fact, as a sub industry of strategic emerging industries, carbon fiber is experiencing an unprecedented investment boom.

Carbon fiber is a kind of high temperature and pressure bearing material. It can be used to replace metals such as copper and steel. It is mainly used in aviation, aerospace, building repair wall, automobile, wind power generation, fuel cell, cable and so on.

Carbon fiber was first applied to important fields such as national defense and military industry, and has long been listed as a blockade of products, technology and equipment as a frontier technology by foreign companies.

In 2008, Jiangsu Lianyungang Eagle swim group's Zhongfu divine eagle Carbon Fiber Co., Ltd.

Last year, Jilin Petrochemical was built as the first carbon fiber production base with independent intellectual property rights in China. It marks a new breakthrough in the industrialization of high performance carbon fiber in China.

It is reported that from March 2008, the Jilin Petrochemical 100 ton carbon fiber project was officially established, and completed and put into operation in May 2009, and achieved stable operation, and produced qualified T300 class carbon fiber products.

Jilin's high and new technology industrial base of carbon fiber has a number of well-known domestic and foreign famous carbon fiber backbone enterprises, such as sinooil, Jilin, Sinosteel, Jilin chemical fiber and Jilin High Tech Co., Ltd., which can form the chain of production, supply and marketing from raw materials to products.

This year, the construction of Yaxin carbon fiber phase I project is expected to yield 4000 tons ~6000 tons after commissioning.

It is reported that Yaxin is only a point of "carbon layout" of Dalian Xingke Carbon Fiber Co., Ltd., and the company will build 4 tons of carbon fiber base in Dalian, Baotou, Sanhe and Baoding. They aim at the national grid carbon fiber composite core.

In recent years, a number of carbon fiber projects like this have sprang up. At present, there are nearly 40 carbon fiber enterprises in China.

There are many specifications for carbon fibers, ranging from low to high T300, T700, T800 and T1000.

According to insiders, China's carbon fiber market is mainly concentrated in the field of sports and leisure products. At present, there are about 7000 tons of actual demand in the domestic 8000 tons for this area, and the growth of the future market is in the field of new industrial applications.

Taking fan blade as an example, according to the plan, the demand for carbon fiber in China's fan blade market will reach ten thousand ton level by 2020.

Yao Mu, academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, predicts that in the next 40 years, at least half of the world's machines will be made of fiber reinforced composites instead of metal.

It can be seen that carbon fiber applications are shifting from sophisticated applications to more industrial and civilian sectors.

At the same time, some domestic enterprises have carried out the research and development of carbon fiber specifications of T700 and above, and have been applied in the field of national defense, and even some enterprises have launched an attack on T800.

Insiders said that the production of high carbon fiber in China has exceeded the lab stage and reached the tonnage output. The main problem now is to enhance stability.

There is no denying that domestic carbon fiber products still have problems such as high production costs and unopened applications, but some enterprises engaged in carbon fiber said that temporary overcapacity is not necessarily a bad thing, because this narrow bottle mouth effect can promote deep research and development, talent storage, market promotion and other factors conducive to industrial development.

Speaking of the state's policy of vigorously supporting and developing new industries, they highly appreciate and say that without a good development environment, the existing carbon fiber projects will inevitably shrink and stagnate, and even retrogress to the period of tight supply and scarce products in the carbon fiber market.

It is true that the growth of new industries should not only achieve technological breakthroughs, but also make breakthroughs in the policy system, such as improving the industrial layout and investment management, and increasing the supervision of supporting funds.

Therefore, under the premise of increasing the seven strategic industries, the development of new materials industry including carbon fiber will be broader and more dynamic.
