High Performance Fiber: Huge Market Space To Be Filled

China's traditional chemical fiber production capacity is surplus, but the high performance fiber such as bit spun, carbon fiber and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene still needs a large number of imports.

Among them, the annual demand for spun nylon is about 5000 tons, and the import dependency is over 95%.

The annual demand for carbon fiber is about 5500~6000 tons, and domestic capacity is only about 1600 tons, with an import dependency of about 70%.

The annual demand for ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene is about 15 thousand tons, domestic capacity is less than 10 thousand tons, and import dependence is also close to 40%.

Therefore, there will be a huge space to replace imports in China's high-performance fiber market in the future.

During the "12th Five-Year" period, the country will improve

With the enhancement of strategic position, the research and development of high performance fibers has made breakthroughs.

Aramid, carbon fiber and high strength glass fiber can all be produced in China.

However, high performance fibers and even high-tech textiles based on this are mostly applied in high-end fields such as aerospace and national defense, and R & D and production are very concentrated.

Take the high strength glass fiber as an example, the deputy general manager of Sinoma Polytron Technologies Inc special fiber business group Zu Qun introduces that China is a large fiberglass producer. In 2010, the total production accounts for 54% of the global total, but the domestic glass fiber consumption is only 39%.

With the continuous breakthroughs in domestic high strength glass fiber technology and the continuous development of textile technology, China will replace it.

Zhang Chenshu, an engineer of the center for industrial textiles research at Donghua University, said that the "popularity" of high-performance fibers is the key. In previous theoretical studies, we will make many high-performance fibers, but many of them stay in the "noble" class.

In the future, the relevant departments may concentrate on the production process of these high-performance fibers, so as to improve production efficiency and stabilize the quality of products.

Many years engaged in high performance fibers and their applications.

Leaving the market, the concept of "high" or "new" is all the same. Under the premise of breaking through the process, stabilizing the quality and perfecting the standards, high-performance fibers can only go out of the high places of light and snow when they are closely integrated with the needs of users, and can also seize the throat of the market.
