Future Development Trend Of China'S Chemical Fiber Industry

< p > chemical fiber industry is an important industry in China's traditional manufacturing industry and an important material foundation for social and economic development.

In recent years, China's "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_c.asp "chemical fiber > /a" industry has developed rapidly, and China has become the largest producer of chemical fiber in the world.

Since 2010, with the steady growth of the domestic market and the gradual improvement of the international market, the operation of China's chemical fiber industry has maintained a good momentum: stable growth in production and marketing, gradual recovery in exports, gradual increase in profits, and continuous improvement in the quality of operation.

< /p >

At present, China is in the industrial pformation period of the textile industry and chemical fiber industry. The state industrial policy strongly supports the elimination of backward production capacity of the chemical fiber industry, the pformation of development mode, and the encouragement of the development of high value-added and high difference rate fibers. P

The support of the national industrial policy provides a good policy environment for the long-term healthy development of the chemical fiber industry.

The "11th Five-Year development plan for China's textile industry" and the "development guide for the development of chemical fiber industry in 11th Five-Year" require vigorous development of new fibers such as high-performance fibers, differential fibers and green environmental friendly fibers, so as to accelerate the adjustment of product mix and speed up the development and application of viscose staple fiber products.

The textile industry adjustment and revitalization plan calls for the full use of resources such as agricultural products, crop waste and bamboo and fast-growing forests to realize the industrialization of biodegradable and renewable biomass fiber and comprehensive development and utilization. It requires advanced and practical technology to enhance the control level of traditional chemical fiber technology, installation and production, and achieve the one-stop application development of viscose, polyester, polyester and other products.

< /p >

< p > at present, the overall technical level of chemical fiber industry is not high, independent research and development capability needs to be improved, the development of high technology, functional fiber and composite materials is lagging behind, and high performance textile machinery and equipment mainly rely on imports.

< /p >

< p > polyester production accounts for about 80% of the total output of China's chemical fiber, and PTA, the main raw material, comes from the petrochemical industry.

International oil price fluctuation will cause polyester a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_cj.asp" > price < /a > fluctuation, PTA price rise, profitability of PTA industry will increase, production cost of polyester industry will increase, and industry profitability will decline.

PTA is not synchronous with the cyclical fluctuation of polyester industry, and shows obvious complementarity to a certain extent.

The main raw materials of viscose fiber are cotton pulp and wood pulp. With the improvement of technology level, the substitution of cotton pulp and wood pulp greatly increased.

China's cotton pulp is made of cotton linter, and its output is relatively limited each year. The output of domestic wood pulp is very small and mainly depends on imports.

Viscose staple fiber production in China's total viscose fiber accounted for nearly 90%.

< /p >

< p > downstream of polyester and viscose fiber are textile industry.

Polyester is the largest and most widely used synthetic fiber in the world. At present, polyester accounts for more than 60% of the world's synthetic fiber. Viscose filament is widely used in high-grade textiles such as silk, which partly replace silk. Its market capacity is limited. Viscose staple fiber is an ideal substitute for cotton fiber. It has a wide range of uses and large market capacity. It is mainly used in medium and high-end products to replace cotton fibers.

< p > predict that in the next 1-2 years, under the background of global a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_s.asp" > economic recovery < /a >, although China's chemical fiber industry still has problems such as irrational industrial structure, overcapacity of conventional varieties and low level of functional differentiation of products, the adverse factors such as RMB appreciation, rising labor costs and inhibition of export growth will increase the operational risk of the industry. However, the chemical fiber industry in China will constantly eliminate backward production capacity, pform development mode, upgrade technology level and increase domestic demand, and other factors will effectively alleviate the external pressure of the industry.

The main development trends are as follows: < /p >

< p > 1. international economic recovery and expansion of domestic demand promote industrial scale to continue to grow.

China's chemical fiber production ranks first in the world in 12 years.

It is predicted that the scale of China's chemical fiber industry will continue to grow with the gradual recovery of the international economy and the improvement of the national consumption level.

< /p >

< p > 2. the pformation of development mode, the acceleration of industrial structure upgrading, and the acceleration of technology and equipment level.

In the future, synthetic fiber will gradually upgrade and upgrade the traditional production technology, equipment and production control level, and further improve the chemical fiber differential rate. The proportion of viscose fiber in chemical fiber will gradually increase, especially viscose staple fiber as an ideal substitute for cotton fiber, and the market demand will continue to grow, and the production capacity will grow rapidly.

< /p >

< p > 3. the dependence of raw materials on foreign trade is relatively large.

PTA is the main raw material of polyester products.

Domestic PTA output can not meet the needs of downstream polyester. Before 2007, domestic PTA mainly relied on foreign imports, and import dependency was over 50%. PTA industry's high profits made domestic enterprises invest in factories and expand production capacity. In recent years, domestic PTA production capacity has increased significantly.

In 2011, the total capacity of PTA in China was 17 million 660 thousand tons / year, an increase of 19% compared with the same period last year. The import dependency of PTA dropped from 32.92% in 2010 to 17.65% in 2011. However, there still exist some supply gaps.

< /p >

< p > 4. industrial concentration is expected to increase, and the industrial chain will be further improved.

Viscose fiber industry in China is a technology intensive and capital intensive industry. There are barriers to entry and a high degree of market concentration.

At present, the expansion of China's chemical fiber industry is generally concentrated on conventional products, while the demand for high-end chemical fiber products in textile industry is still in short supply, mainly relying on imports, and the structural contradictions in the whole industry are outstanding.

With the increase of labor cost, energy cost and the shortage of raw materials such as cotton, the profit space of traditional chemical fiber products is compressed, and the backward production capacity of the Department is gradually eliminated.

Those enterprises with strong capital strength and strong technological R & D capability will introduce new high-end products, control raw material resources, improve the industrial chain, improve the degree of mechanization of production equipment, and reduce costs by technological pformation.

In the future, the production capacity of the chemical fiber industry will gradually concentrate on the large dominant enterprises, and the market concentration will continue to increase.
