The Potential Market Of Aramid Fiber In China Is Huge.

Aramid fiber is a new type of high-tech synthetic fiber, which has excellent properties such as ultra-high strength, high modulus and high temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, light weight and so on.

Its discovery is known as "across the ages" in the material world.

It is actually a wholly para aromatic amide formed by condensation polymerization of benzene two amine with two benzyl chloride, which is commonly referred to as aramid fiber in China.

Aramid fiber is the highest strength synthetic fiber, it has chemical resistance, high insulation, high tensile strength and initial elastic modulus and other characteristics.

At present, it is mainly used for manufacturing tire cord, rubber reinforcing material, special rope and bullet proof garment, and other high-tech fields such as aerospace, national defense and military.

The aramid fiber market is hard to win.

Since the discovery of aramid in 60s of last century, many kinds of aramid fibers have been released.

At present, the aramid fiber is generally divided into three kinds, namely, aramid fiber, meta aramid fiber and ortho aramid fiber according to its structure.

Among them, the US DuPont Co has been in the forefront of the aramid fiber industry.

Not only did they first develop the aramid fiber, but also took the lead in industrial development.

Even after decades of today, the aramid fiber of DuPont Co is still at the top level of the world in terms of R & D, production regulation and market share.

The development of aramid fiber in China is very late than that in developed countries in Europe and America, and some key technologies in engineering have not made breakthroughs for a long time.

At the same time, many countries in the world have been controlling aramid fibers as strategic materials, so the related technologies have never been disclosed or pferred, and the policy of blocking monopoly has been implemented.

The superposition of various factors has resulted in a certain gap between China's aramid fiber industry's technology level, product quality and production capacity.

The most outstanding problem is that the solvent in China is not yet able to pass, resulting in the import of most raw materials.

Fortunately, it is precisely because many aspects of China's economic construction require aramid and its composite materials.

Therefore, the development of aramid composites has been listed as one of the key points in the 12th Five-Year development of China's special fiber industry.

At the same time, China's aramid fiber Jaguar and other parties.

First of all, the relevant scientific research institutions made breakthroughs in the key engineering technology of aramid fiber, and finally made foreign monopoly on the industry for 40 years a history.

In addition, in June 13, 2011, a company in Yantai, the largest special fiber production base in China, announced that the key project of the national "863" project, the annual production capacity of 1000 tons, was successfully put into operation.

It is understood that at present, there are several thousand kiloton scale and above scale aramid production lines in China.

Compared with the domestic production of para aramid, the application of meta aramid in domestic high technology field has shown a substantial growth.

The aramid fiber and its composite materials are mainly used in high-end projects such as aerospace and high-speed railway because of their high strength, light weight, corrosion resistance, flame retardant and insulation properties.

For example, aramid paper honeycomb has been used as a sandwich structure material for high-speed trains in China's self-developed high-speed trains.

Its advantages not only reduce the weight of the train itself, but also reduce the noise generated by the high-speed train.

At present, with the state's decision to vigorously develop high speed rail, large aircraft projects and aerospace engineering and other advanced fields, the development of the aramid fiber composites has also entered a historic development opportunity.

Aramid fiber is widely used in civilian areas, and has been integrated into our daily production and life.

The aramid pulp fiber is the most widely used substitute for asbestos.

As we all know, asbestos and its products have been recognized as a strong carcinogen.

With the deepening of environmental protection against asbestos in the world, some asbestos and their products have been banned in some developed countries, such as Europe and America.

However, in our lives, we can not do without asbestos as an auxiliary reinforcement material.

At this point, the aramid pulp fiber obtained by surface fibrillation treatment of aramid fibers has begun to gradually replace asbestos with its advantages over asbestos, especially human health and environmental innocuity and harmlessness.

The most famous one is aramid 1414 pulp fiber, also known as "six party special fiber".

Every day when you are driving on your way to and from work, you may have thought that aramid pulp fibers may be increasing their strength and friction resistance in your tyres, clutch and hose.

In fact, aramid pulp fibers are almost everywhere in our life.

The aramid pulp fiber is added from the optical fiber outer skin of the network to the rubber sole of some shoes.

In addition, it is known that the aramid fiber is a flexible polymer, and its breaking strength is higher than that of ordinary polyester, cotton and nylon. The elongation is larger, the handle is soft, and the spinnability is good. It can produce short fibers and filament with different fineness and length.

More convenient is that in general textile machinery, aramid can be made of different gauze weave fabric, non-woven fabric, after finishing can meet the requirements of different fields of protective clothing.

That is to say, downstream enterprises can produce aramid fibers without additional equipment.

On the whole, with the continuous growth of China's economy, the demand for aramid fiber in all walks of life is bound to grow.

Although the production capacity of aramid fiber in China is expanding, the base is relatively small because of its late start.

Therefore, the potential market of aramid fiber in China is huge, which has laid a solid foundation for the rapid development of aramid fiber industry.

Aramid fiber application, lotus leaf water is as big as money.

The strength of aramid fiber is more than 5 times that of steel wire, toughness is 2 times of steel wire and its weight is only 1/5 of steel wire.

These characteristics determine that aramid fiber can be widely used in the field of protection, especially in the field of individual protection.

In fact, para aramid fiber is an important material for national defense industry. In order to meet the needs of modern warfare, the bulletproof vest of the developed countries, such as the United States and Britain, is aramid material.

The lightweight of aramid bulletproof vest and helmet has effectively improved the quick response ability and lethality of military police.

Aramid fibers have also been widely used in China's personal protective products.

Among them, the special firemen protective clothing, police training clothes, police light bulletproof, stab proof clothing and so on have already used aramid fiber.

The masses of the masses can often see all kinds of anti-terrorism riot performances on TV. A team of SWAT players are brave and brave to rush to the target and annihilate the enemy.

They wear the outer black vest, which is aramid fiber body armor.

The biggest advantage of aramid fiber bullet proof clothing is its light weight, easy wearing and easy dyeing.

Light weight, not only easy to carry, but also adds flexibility to individual activities in action.

It is easy to dye, and can produce various colors of bullet proof clothing according to the needs of specific tasks.

The army and police can better hide themselves and attack the enemy, for example, the camouflage armor made of camouflage is more conducive to fighting in the jungle.

The characteristics of aramid fiber bullet proof clothing are undoubtedly more effective for the police to deal with emergencies and accomplish their tasks successfully.

In the mid 90s of last century, China's public security system also used military heavy armor suits.

It was about 1997 when a reporter tried to wear this bulletproof vest himself.

The surface of this bulletproof vest is made of nylon wear-resistant textile materials, which are stitched into one piece, which is interconnected with high strength plastics and filled with filler.

After wearing it, I feel very heavy, whether running or squatting, lying down, jumping are very inconvenient.

Because of its heavy weight, carrying and pporting is also cumbersome.

Police officers usually arrive at the scene and take out the scene from the trunk.

This will not only delay the time of dealing with emergencies, but also lead to the bunk of warplanes. Even when the situation is urgent, it will cause unnecessary casualties for frontline police.

After entering the new century, with the rapid development of China's economy, all kinds of high-tech equipment are constantly being installed.

Aramid fiber bullet proof clothing gradually replaced the heavy old style heavy bulletproof vest and became the designated equipment of our public security system.

It is understood that aramid fiber bullet proof clothing is made of laminated aramid fiber woven cloth stitching.

This bulletproof vest is soft and comfortable, stronger than steel, but its weight is less than 2 kilograms.

Like other textile fabrics, styles and colors can be varied and can be worn at any time without affecting daily work.

In fact, it is not only the police series that uses aramid fiber bullet proof clothing.

Other individuals who need special protection, such as bank escorts, objects to protect, and some wealthy businessmen are using aramid body armor.

After testing by the experts, the light bulletproof vest made of 20 layers of aramid stitch can resist the continuous firing of the 9mm light machine gun. Some other natural pistols and shotguns, such as pistols and shotguns, can not do anything for aramid fiber bullet proof clothing.

There is no doubt that aramid fiber is the first choice and the best special fiber material for personal protective clothing production.

In civil aspect, the application of aramid fiber is also very extensive.

Relevant statistics show that at present, China's aramid fiber products are used for about 7% of bulletproof clothing, helmet and so on. About 40% of sports materials are used, about 300% of tire frame materials and belt materials, and about 23% of high-strength ropes, aerospace materials and so on.

Friends who like outdoor sports and friends who like to fish must have broken the fishing rod when they caught the big fish, or worried that the fishing rod would be broken.

A senior fishing friend in Chongqing did not have a good grasp of a fish in the process of fishing.

After fighting for nearly two hours with the fish in the water, he saw that he had pulled the fish weighing about 30 jin to the shore to prepare for the fish.

The fish suddenly wagged its tail and went deep into the water. The fishing friend raised the fishing rod in a hurry.

It only heard a crisp sound, and the fishing rod was broken from the middle of the second quarter.

The breakage of the fishing rod has made the fishing friend heartache, but the Herring's escape from a fishing rod is difficult to survive.

After returning to the city, the fishing friend came to the fishing tackle shop to pick up the appropriate fishing rod.

In chatting, he told the shopkeeper what he had encountered when the big fish broke the fishing rod.

The shopkeeper then recommended to him a senior fishing rod with aramid fiber, and promised to be replaced by a fish in two years.

When the fisherman later used aramid fiber fishing rod, he found that the flexibility of the aramid fishing rod was better than that of the fiberglass fishing rod formerly used.

Even if the fishing rod's sentinel curved to nearly 90 degrees, there would be no break.

In fact, this is the special effect of high tensile strength and initial elastic modulus of aramid fiber.

At present, most of the famous fishing competitions in the world recommend the new fishing rods with aramid fiber.

At the same time, aramid fibers are also being widely used in sporting goods such as golf clubs, hockey clubs and so on.

In addition, aramid fiber as a high-tech fiber material has also been widely used in aerospace.

Aramid fibers, because of their light weight and high strength, reduce their weight by applying their composite materials to spacecraft, which means that they can save a lot of power fuel.

According to foreign data, in the process of launching the spacecraft, each reduction of 1 kilograms of weight means a reduction of the launch cost of US $1 million.

It can be said that the application of aramid fiber and its products has played an indelible role in China's aerospace industry.

At present, China has already included aramid fiber in the catalogue of high-tech products encouraged by the state and the development plan of strategic emerging industries in 12th Five-Year.

It is not hard to imagine that the development and application of aramid fiber industry in China will show a trend of rapid development in the future.

Aramid fiber quality, cover basin carefully, leave gaps.

In many police and gunmen movies and TV dramas, there will be a lot of protagonists because they are wearing bulletproof vests and are ready to fight immediately after they are shot.

However, these are the plots that the poor writers have imagined.

In fact, aramid fiber bullet proof clothing can block bullets because of the long chain structure of aramid fibers, so aramid fiber has high toughness.

However, aramid fiber bullet proof clothing can only prevent bullets from penetrating the fabric into the human body.

However, it can not effectively absorb the impact force of high-speed rotating bullet on human body, which is essentially different from that of military heavy bulletproof clothing.

However, considering the great harm that the bullet penetrates through the body, the effect of aramid body armor is enough.

With the rapid development of aramid industry in China, the quality problems of aramid fiber are beginning to appear.

At the end of 2011, a factory purchased 800 kilograms of Aramid 1313 yarn for a Guangzhou company to produce high-temperature needled felt on base cloth.

Since the order time is very tight, after receiving the aramid fiber, the factory did not carry out quality inspection.

Later, it was found in the production that the temperature resistance of the aramid fibers did not meet the quality requirements. When the temperature reached 200 degrees, the fiber had already contracted about 10%.

So the factory immediately contacted the Guangzhou company to return the matter, but the other side refused to return it.

Later, the factory had no choice but to send samples to a test center for testing. The result was that the dry heat shrinkage of Aramid 1313 yarn reached 6.5% at 204 degrees one hour, indicating that there was a serious quality problem.

{page_break}

According to the relevant personnel of the plant, they used the Aramid 1313 yarn produced by a large chemical fiber enterprise in Yantai.

The quality of the aramid yarn produced in this big factory in Yantai is very good. It works for 204 hours in an hour without heat shrinkage.

This is the result of the fact that the cheap aramid fiber yarn has been bought out of the bargain because it is cheap.

After many coordination, however, the factory received some compensation, but at the same time, it also caused great economic losses to itself.

This painful lesson brings two tips to our textile and garment enterprises.

First, "cheap goods are not cheap, good goods are not cheap". If we want to produce high quality products, we must purchase good quality raw materials.

Those who seek petty advantage often end up losing money.

Secondly, the quality of the fiber material must be tested before entering the factory, so as to make a better arrangement for the organization of the production.

There is a certain gap between the western countries and the innovation and research and development of the aramid fiber.

According to reports, at the end of 2011, at the international defense products exhibition held in London, London, a liquid aramid bulletproof vest caused a great sensation. It was considered a revolutionary technological breakthrough.

The new bulletproof vest is developed by a British company. Its special liquid material will become thicker and harder after being hit by a bullet.

The company developed this liquid material into the middle of multi-layer para aramid fiber, and then made this new bulletproof vest with this kind of composite material.

It is said that the weight of the liquid aramid bullet proof garment is only half that of the ordinary aramid bullet proof garment, so it is lighter and more practical.

Moreover, when the bullet hit the liquid aramid bulletproof vest, its impact was immediately dispersed, and its destructive power was greatly reduced.

Because of all kinds of historical reasons, the development of aramid fiber in China is indeed behind the western developed countries.

In the popular saying, "lose at the starting line", we must not forget a constant truth.

There are only two kinds of animals that can reach the top, one is the proud eagle, and the other is the silent snail.

As long as China's aramid industry is fearless and eager to explore and pursue, it will surely achieve the goal of coming from behind.

Anyway, China's aramid industry is relatively young.

In the process of pursuing their own leaping development, there will always be thorns.

However, as long as we can continuously improve the production technology and constantly improve the quality of aramid fiber, and constantly develop innovative products, we will surely be able to gain a foothold in the international and domestic aramid fiber market.
