What A Good G20 Summit Of Chemical Fiber Industry! Big Coffee Gathered In Anhui Bengbu Hot Industry Trend

Because of the important responsibility of "the North-South boundary of China's geography", the long river of Huaihe and Qinling Mountains's mountain have special weight in our country. Influenced by the river civilization, there are many cities on the Bank of Huaihe, and Bengbu in Anhui is one of them.


In the eyes of citizens who are concerned about the vitality of urban development, Bengbu is the core city of the national independent innovation demonstration zone of Hefei Wuhu mussel and the core city of Huaihe's eco economic belt. In the eyes of the material circles, Bengbu also has its own characteristics. At present, Bengbu is focusing on the "two wheel" drive of silicon based and biologically based new materials, creating "double billion" industrial clusters, building a world-class new material industry base, and making every effort to create "the city of innovation, the capital of materials".

On September 4~5, the twenty-fifth China International Chemical fiber Conference (Bengbu 2019) was held in Bengbu, Anhui. The city on the coast of Huaihe suddenly entered the "global chemical fiber time". Chemical fiber practitioners from various countries around the world come together to talk about the development of the industry.

Theme Forums:


Discussion on development trend of multinational and regional chemical fiber industry


The development forum held in September 4th is an in-depth exchange and collision of wisdom of the global chemical fiber industry. It also fully embodies the internationalization elements and characteristics of this conference. Representatives from China, Japan, Korea, India, Thailand and Pakistan and representatives from relevant associations and enterprises from Europe and China Taiwan region respectively introduced the latest development of chemical fiber industry in their countries and regions, the challenges they faced, the direction of industrial development and the latest development trends of the whole ball chemical fiber industry.


No industry or enterprise can develop independently from the new situation of international trade and the characteristics of macro-economic operation of a country. In fact, the economic operation characteristics of a subdivision industry are precisely to a certain extent a reflection of the macro economic operation and the development of international trade. Li Ruoyu, director of the Economic Forecasting Department of the state information center, analyzed the current situation of China's macro economic development, especially the performance of China's export market under the background of Sino US trade friction.


Li Ruoyu pointed out that in the first half of the year, China's main macroeconomic indicators remained at a reasonable level. China's economy is facing the pressure of transformation and structural adjustment for a long time, and is facing the impact of Sino US trade friction in the near future. The world economy has entered the downward stage of the current growth cycle, and China's economic growth continues to lead the world's leading economies.


Li Ruoyu pointed out that under the pressure of Sino US trade friction, China's economy showed good resilience. Sino US trade friction is showing a trend of spreading in the field of science and technology and finance. But under such a background, China's export growth is better than expected, and the impact is relatively limited. The "false start" effect of China's exports and diversification of export markets are the important reasons for better export performance than expected. With the gradual increase of tariffs by the US government, enterprises export ahead of the tariff policy. China's rapid growth in exports to the European Union, ASEAN and the "along the way" countries has, to a certain extent, compensated for the decline in US exports to the United States.


She explained with a set of data: in the first half of 2019, China's exports to the countries along the belt and road grew by 9.5%, exports to the EU increased by 12.6%, exports to ASEAN increased by 9.2%, and exports to the United States decreased by 2.1%. The EU has surpassed the US as China's largest export market. However, she also reminded the industry and enterprises that China's export growth is facing the weakening of external demand and the superimposed pressure imposed by the United States.


Europe has a strong competitive edge in the global fiber industry competition in terms of product development, technology level, trend leading, machinery and equipment manufacturing, especially downstream application expansion of high value fiber.


Fr Van Tot D ric Van Houte, director of the European artificial fiber Association, described the intellectual innovation of man-made fibers and textiles in Europe and the development of the man-made fiber market in Europe. He pointed out that European man-made fibers are leading in sustainable development. Recycling of waste textiles has attracted increasing attention. Europe plans to make important progress before 2025.


Van Tot also introduced some new technologies in the field of biology. He pointed out that there are many new 100% bioplastics that can be used to create "green" monomers, which are mainly formed through glucose fermentation. For example, biobased polyesters and polylactic acid are one of the most popular bioplastics, which are fermented by sugar or starch and biodegradable. PTT is a bio based polyester fiber, durable and antifouling. Biologically based polyamide, such as the biobase PA66 made from hexane diamine (HMD), such as bioplastics made from (discarded) citrus fruits and fruit juices.


Circular economy is a new problem. Its goal is to minimize waste emissions and transform economic development from the current mode to the regeneration mode. "Van hout said.


Ou Ruikang is the world's leading manufacturer of chemical fiber equipment from Europe. Over the years, many large polyester polyester manufacturers in China have purchased the equipment with the leading technology level from orrican. Andr e Wissenberg, vice president of the Orion chemical fiber board, pointed out at the meeting that the transformation of the global chemical fiber industry is imperative. The high digitalization and intellectualization are the major trend of the future development of the chemical fiber industry.


The chemical fiber industry in Japan and South Korea has also been an important force in the global chemical fiber market. Represented by famous enterprises such as Dongli, Japan and South Korea, they have strong competitiveness in differentiation, functional chemical fiber product development, high performance chemical fiber research and application and so on.


Li Changyu, senior director of Korea Chemical Fiber Industry Association, introduced the development direction and production innovation of Korea chemical fiber industry. Li Changyu pointed out that although the chemical fiber industry in Korea is smaller than China, it strengthens the competitiveness of the industry by enhancing its application in various fields and enhancing the added value of products. In 2018, South Korea's chemical fiber production and shipments decreased by 17% and 18.9% respectively compared with 2005. In 2018, the import of chemical fiber products in Korea amounted to 568 thousand tons, equivalent to 91.4% of the domestic demand of Korea, and imports continued to rise. In 2019, the demand for domestic chemical fiber in Korea was 273 thousand tons, 15.8% lower than that in the same period in 2018, and the direct export volume decreased to 334 thousand tons, a decrease of 9.7%. In the first half of 2019, the value of chemical fiber exported to China from Korea amounted to US $194 million, accounting for 14.4% of total exports. The value of chemical fiber imported from China was 306 million US dollars, accounting for 42.7% of total imports. From the perspective of enterprise scale, the current Korean chemical fiber industry is becoming more and more dominated by small enterprises.


Hatomi Yoshixianyi, executive vice president and director of the Japan Chemical Fiber Association, also pointed out that the global fiber industry will continue to grow in the future. The chemical fiber industry will be the main supporting force, and the long-term supply and demand situation of the global chemical fiber industry has been predicted.


The development of chemical fiber industry in Taiwan, China is similar to that of Japan and Korea, and has long been competitive in functional differential fiber.


Tang Jingwen, research fellow and leader of Taiwan Industrial Technology Research Institute, said that at present, the output of synthetic fiber in Taiwan ranks third in the world, with the order of 70% of functional textiles in the international brand, and the total output value of its upstream fiber industry reaches 111 billion 400 million yuan. Among them, there are about 46 man-made fiber enterprises in Taiwan, and the output value is about 95 billion 800 million yuan. There are 29 enterprises, such as glass fiber and carbon fiber, and their output value reaches about 15 billion 700 million yuan. From the perspective of the textile industry as a whole, there are about 4401 textile enterprises in Taiwan.


Tang Jingwen also focused on the development trend and R & D strategy of Taiwan's functional textile industry. She introduces that functional textiles in Taiwan, China include: leisure and comfortable textiles, moisture absorption and sweat perspiration, cool feeling, heat preservation, antifouling and other textile products belong to this category; health care textiles, bacteria control, odorant, mosquito repellent and health care products belong to this category; life safety textiles, far infrared rays, flame retardancy, radiation protection, electromagnetic waves and other products belong to this category.


"Taiwan, China is expanding its production layout for some Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, Vietnam and Kampuchea, as well as for some African countries, as well as for the European Union and the United States. In Taiwan, China, at present, the development and production of functional fiber materials are mainly developed, and these fiber materials are exported to Vietnam, Mexico and other countries for garment manufacturing. "Tang Jingwen said.


It is worth noting that in recent years, with the acceleration of industrial transfer of the global textile industry, some Asian countries in Southeast Asia and South Asia become the new rising textile force.


S.C.Kapur, Secretary General of India Synthetic Fiber Industry Association (Cab), pointed out that in recent years, the textile industry has promoted the steady growth and development of India's economy. Its output value accounts for about 5% of India's gross national product, accounting for 10% of India's total industrial output value, accounting for 15% of India's total exports. In the textile industry of India, the cotton textile industry accounts for 50% of the share advantage. Polyester polyester industry in India is developing rapidly, accounting for about 40% of the textile industry's market share. In terms of raw materials needed to produce polyester products, India is basically self-sufficient. The trend of supply and demand balance will continue to basically meet the growth demand of polyester fiber consumption. According to reports, India's demand for PTA is 17 million tons.


Cappe also introduced in particular that India has begun to focus on sustainable development and constantly drives green development. The importance of sustainability and recycling highlights the rising share of recycled raw materials in mainstream textile consumption. Whether from the perspective of government or textile and chemical fiber industry, a variety of laws and regulations have been promulgated.


Mayuree Didpakdeechol, honorary president of Thailand chemical fiber industry association, introduced the textile safety signs of personal protective equipment (PPE) at the meeting. Taking Thailand road safety project as an example, she introduced the importance of protective equipment for individual life and health protection.


Pakistan is the fourth largest cotton producer in the world and its spinning capacity ranks third in Asia. The textile industry is the second largest industry in Pakistan. Textile exports account for 58% of the total exports of the country. The top four products of textile exports are household textiles, cotton fabrics, knitted garments and woven garments.


Rizwan Afzal Chaudhry, business manager of polyester Business Department of Pakistan ICI Co., Ltd. introduced the development of polyester staple industry in Pakistan at the meeting. The use of polyester products in Pakistan is mainly imported raw materials and processed into terminal products for re export. In 2017-2018, the import volume of cotton to Pakistan was 544000 tons, the import of polyester staple fiber was 78000 tons, and the import of viscose fiber was 148000 tons. There are some small PTA manufacturing enterprises in Pakistan.


"We do not have many upstream raw materials companies. We also welcome you to invest in upstream raw materials. "Rizwan Afzal Chaudhry said.


It is also worth noting that the high-end interview session is also a highlight of the September 4th forum. In this session, Xiaoping was chaired by the end of the meeting. Yu Jianyong, Li Lingshen, chairman of China Textile Machinery Association Gu Ping, Li Rongjie, chairman of the Suzhou Long Jie special fiber Limited by Share Ltd Xi Wenjie several guests around the theme of "green development, intelligent manufacturing, chemical fiber industry transformation and upgrading" were discussed. From different angles, they talked about the key points of technology development in the "14th Five-Year" development plan of the chemical fiber industry, the relationship between industry university research cooperation and intellectual property protection, the development direction of the future functional fiber and textile and chemical fiber equipment, and how to deal with the issue of plastic particles.


"Host" Bengbu:


Polylactic acid new material industry attracts world attention


Dressed in a light blue woven formal dress, Li Rongjie, chairman of Anhui Fengyuan Group Co., Ltd., these days, are "three sentences not far from the old line".


Whether it was held in September 3rd on the high level seminar on the development of bio based materials in Fengyuan Group, Anhui, or in September 4th, "the twenty-fifth China International Chemical fiber Conference (Bengbu 2019) development forum", he introduced in detail to everyone the "Star" product, bio based material polylactic acid, which condensed the company's pioneering spirit and blood for decades.


Bio based materials refer to the renewable biomass resources derived from photosynthesis as raw materials, such as roots, stems and fruits of plants, which are converted into five carbon sugars and six carbon sugars by using starch, cellulose and hemicellulose, which are transformed into biological products through biological fermentation technology, and then polymerized into polymeric environment-friendly biomaterials. Biodegradable materials, which can be decomposed into carbon dioxide and water under the action of microorganisms or compost, are environmentally friendly, non-toxic, degradable and so on. They have broad market application space and have large demand in the plastics, packaging, manufacturing and pharmaceutical industries.


Biodegradable materials, polylactic acid (PLA), are fermented and produced high purity lactic acid by using corn starch and straw cellulose as raw materials. Lactic acid is prepared into a cyclic two dimer lactide, and then lactide ring opening polymerization is used to produce polylactic acid. The product has the characteristics of ring protection, non-toxic and biodegradable. Bio based green fiber can fully reflect the integration of renewable resources and modern fiber processing technology.


Polylactic acid fiber is commonly known as "corn fiber". The material made of corn fiber has weak acid, similar to human skin, natural bacteriostasis, skin resistance and anti mites. It has good drape, moisture permeability, glossy and silky feel, and has good anti ultraviolet function. It has obvious advantages in underwear, leisure wear, bed products and other fields.


In fact, biodegradable materials have been included in the "13th Five-Year" national strategic emerging industries development plan, and have also been included in the national key special planning. Especially in the background of shortage of oil and other resources and environmental protection as the global common topic, the development of bio based materials industry is significant and far-reaching.


In 2018, the annual output of China's chemical fiber was 50 million 110 thousand tons, accounting for 73.5% of the world's total chemical fiber output. About 90% of the chemical fiber products are petroleum based synthetic fibers, which means that the development of industry is greatly restricted by the shortage of petroleum resources. Against this background, promoting the adjustment of raw material structure and changing the way of industrial development in China's textile and chemical fiber industry has become a major development strategy. And the bio based materials derived from nature are the green channels for future resource development.


At present, the world's leading manufacturers of polylactic acid materials have two or three, one of them is in the United States, one is located in Thailand. There are currently five or six PLA manufacturers in China. Fengyuan Group, located in Bengbu, is one of the leading enterprises in China's polylactic acid industry.


Li Rongjie said that after nearly 20 years of research and development, Fengyuan Group has been actively building the whole industrial chain of polylactic acid, vigorously developing the biomass industry, striving to realize the utilization and transformation of renewable resources, and vigorously developing the bio chemical and biological materials industry. The company has industry-leading strain technology, fermentation technology, separation and extraction technology, undertaking a number of national "863" project and Anhui provincial key research projects, won the first prize in Anhui science and technology progress, the national science and technology achievement award, the Chinese Patent Gold Award and other honors. At present, the company has mastered the 6 core technologies of lactic acid bacteria preparation, fermentation, extraction, purification and polymerization, as well as the production of environmentally friendly fibers and environment-friendly plastics, and has applied for more than 30 patents for major process methods to solve the cost and performance problems of polylactic acid materials. The whole industry chain enterprise of poly lactic acid downstream fiber products and polyester products.


According to the briefing, the pilot plant of the 5000 yuan annual output of Fengyuan Group will be put into operation in the near future, and the industrial production line of the annual output of 30 thousand tons of PLA will be put into operation at the end of this year.


Underwear, socks, non-woven fabrics, plastic film and wood are important applications of polylactic acid materials. Reporters learned that at present, the products made of Fenghuang group's polylactic acid fiber, underwear, socks, sportswear, T-shirt and other products have been made, and its underwear series is jointly developed with jiefa group and red bean group. The socks series is jointly developed with some enterprises in Zhuji. The home textile series products are jointly developed with the red bean group and the Jalan home textile company.


"I wear 60% of polylactic acid fiber on the fabric that I wear. "Li Rongjie said. He also took out a piece of board and said that the plate contained 20% polylactic acid material, and a gray plastic tray was introduced, which contained 35% straw straw material.


However, judging from the overall situation of the domestic and international markets, the overall performance of polylactic acid materials needs to be further improved due to the complexity of the preparation technology, and the relevant technical difficulties remain to be overcome. Moreover, although the advantages of the product are outstanding, there are also some shortcomings, for example, the dyeing property of the fiber needs to be improved. At the same time, we need to raise awareness of it. Especially for extended applications, the high cost of products is still a major factor affecting the further opening of polylactic acid fiber market. It is understood that at present, the price of polylactic acid fiber is usually 20000 yuan / ton in domestic and foreign markets, and the price of polylactic acid fiber products has been sold to 22000 yuan / ton. Even so, customers still can not buy goods.


However, Li Rongjie is very confident about the future development of the industry. He believes that with the continuous conquering of technology, the cost of products will be reduced, and the cost performance of PLA will be further improved.


In the past, polylactic acid materials faced with high cost were hard to promote. In 2017 ~2018, we concentrated on tackling key problems. At present, when the price of corn raw materials is 2000 yuan / ton, Fengyuan Group has been able to make the cost of polylactic acid material about 10000 yuan / ton, and the cost of polylactic acid fiber can reach 13000 yuan / ton. At present, we can achieve that the cost of polylactic acid fiber is cheaper than cotton, slightly more expensive than chemical fiber. And from an incremental perspective, in the future, the amount of polylactic acid will be great once straw can be fermented. If degradable polylactic acid materials can be applied to plastics, their market prospects will be very great. "Li Rongjie introduced.


As for the cost problem, an industry expert also pointed out: "if our enterprises can make the cost of polylactic acid fiber 10000 yuan ~13000 yuan per ton, this will be a great breakthrough in our country, and polylactic acid fiber products will also be very competitive in the future. "


It is also worth pointing out that, relying on the achievements made by Fengyuan Group, Bengbu is full of ambition in the field of new material development.


According to introducing, at present, Bengbu is making efforts to build a trillions of bases to build the largest polylactic acid industrial park in China, and plans to promote the bio based new material industry to a scale of 100 billion yuan in 3~5 years. It plans to use 8~10 years to make the local bio based new material industry cluster reach the sales scale of 5 trillion yuan ~6 trillion yuan, and "rebuild a Anhui" on the total economic volume. Thus, Bengbu will be built as "the capital city of innovation" with world influence.


"This international chemical fiber conference was held in Bengbu. We also hope that in the next few years, our country can make substantial breakthroughs in the field of biological materials, and unite the upstream and downstream enterprises at home and abroad to jointly create a bio based industrial park with a bright future. "Gao Yong said.


In recent years, Bengbu has persisted in taking the new development concept as the guide and according to the requirements of high quality development, taking the industrial strong city as the first project to accelerate the construction of the "two centers", focusing on the silicon based and biologically based "two wheels" drive to create "two billion billion" industrial clusters, and constantly accelerating the pace of building the city of innovation and material capital. The international chemical fiber conference is a summit forum focusing on new technologies and exploring new practices. Its holding in Bengbu will have an important impact on the development of Bengbu's bio based new materials industry to high-end development. Bio based is a green sunrise industry. Fengyuan Group has mastered the whole industry chain technology, and has built a kiloton scale PLA production line. Relying on Fengyuan, Bengbu is building a new material industry base and an international industrial cluster. We hope you can take a look around this city and feel the unique charm of this city. "Bengbu municipal Party committee secretary Wang Yingchun said.


In order to comprehensively enhance the influence of Bengbu in the field of new fiber materials and jointly build 100 billion yuan bio based materials Industrial Park, the Bengbu Municipal People's government, China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and Anhui Fengyuan Group Co., Ltd. jointly signed the strategic cooperation framework for the construction of Anhui billion bio Based Material Industrial Park. Next, the three parties will make full use of and give full play to their respective advantages, further enhance the status of the industry, promote the upgrading of bio based materials technology, expand application areas, enhance brand value and influence, and promote the development of bio based materials industry.
