Bio Based Polyester Textile Industry Alliance Was Officially Established

Under the guidance of the "double carbon" goal, bio manufacturing has become one of the important directions of new quality productivity and strategic emerging industries. As the key raw material of bio based polyester PTT, the large-scale production and supply of bio based 1,3-PDO in China is of great significance for reducing carbon emissions of downstream textile industry and promoting sustainable development.

In order to promote the development of China's bio based polyester textile industry, promote technological innovation and industrial upgrading, promote the transformation of achievements, and enhance the core competitiveness of the industry, on September 25, Anhui Huaheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd“ Bio based polyester textile industry alliance ”It was officially established in Hefei, Anhui Province.

The Alliance consists of Anhui Huaheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd., the chairman unit, Donghua University, National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center, Shanghai Qunde Textile Technology Co., Ltd., Wujiang Hengdu Leather Textile Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Sanlian New Material Co., Ltd., Jiangsu Saiwei New Material Co., Ltd Zhejiang Meiyuan New Material Co., Ltd.

As the chairman unit of the Alliance, Chairman and President of Anhui Huaheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd Guo Henghua He said that although China's bio based PTT fiber industry has built an industrial foundation of a certain scale, the transformation path from raw materials to end products is still full of challenges, and there are some industrial bottlenecks, which can not be broken through by enterprises alone. The establishment of the alliance will bring together scientists, industry enterprises and downstream brands to jointly promote China's breakthrough and development in this field. At the same time, Huaheng will unswervingly promote source innovation, product application innovation and industrial chain cooperation innovation, explore open and collaborative innovation paths with alliance members, and realize the innovative value and contribution of Chinese enterprises in the global industrial chain.

General Manager of Intermediary Business Department of Anhui Huaheng Biotechnology Co., Ltd Zhang Mingming Served as the secretary-general of the alliance, and introduced the background of the establishment of the bio based polyester textile industry alliance, the current situation of the industry development, the opportunities and challenges faced, the overall goal, the technical route, and the path to promote the work of the alliance.

Director of Key Laboratory of High Performance Fibers and Products of Ministry of Education, Donghua University Wang Huaping Served as the chief expert of the Alliance and the R&D director of the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center Xu Jinlong Professor of Donghua University Wu Jing Serve as an expert of the Alliance.

　　 Wang Huaping, Wu Jing Introduced the objectives and vision of the alliance, and looked forward to the follow-up work of the alliance: everything Taking Huaheng PDO project as the starting point, through the verification and trial operation of the whole process of the industrial chain, further reduce costs and bring new opportunities for the development of the industry; Second Technological innovation, restructuring the new generation of PTT fiber development technology system, forming a "1+X" technology upgrading development model with stable growth of stock product system and continuous iteration of innovative technology system; Third Commit to product upgrading, solve problems faced by existing products, launch competitive products, and meet diversified market demands; Fourth The mode innovation is to realize the integration of upstream and downstream through the industrial alliance, drive the stock development with the incremental mode, strengthen the brand docking, reverse drive the technological innovation and product development with consumer demand, and promote the comprehensive upgrading and sustainable development of the bio based polyester fiber industry.

The launch of the 50000 t/a PDO project of Huaheng Biology marks that China has built a complete set of upstream and downstream industrial technology systems from bio based 1,3-PDO raw materials, 10000 t continuous polymerization, 10000 t filament/staple/side by side composite and a series of functional fibers to fabric processing, dyeing and finishing, and weaving. The scale and high quality of bio based PDO have initially achieved the competition with international leading enterprises. How to further form the dominant position of China's bio based PTT fiber industry?

In this regard, Li Zengjun, Chief Economist of China Chemical Fiber Industry Association and Executive Vice President of Biobased Chemical Fiber and Raw Materials Branch, Wang Yongsheng, Secretary General of Biobased Chemical Fiber and Raw Materials Branch of China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, Zhao Zhipeng, Deputy Director of Industry Development Department of China Textile Industry Federation, Xu Jinlong, Director of R&D of National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center, As well as the representatives of member enterprises of the Alliance, they discussed the future work around the development of bio based PTT fiber products, market positioning, downstream promotion and application, and put forward suggestions on the compilation of bio based PTT fiber application guidance manual, Chinese naming and other issues. Experts and entrepreneurs unanimously expressed the hope that the members of the Alliance would work together to strengthen the collaborative innovation of the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, broaden the application range of bio based PTT fibers, take the high-end and branding road, jointly promote the sustainable development of the bio based fiber industrial chain, and contribute wisdom and strength to the high-quality development of the textile industry.

President of China Chemical Fiber Industry Association Chen Xinwei He said that the establishment of the alliance is particularly necessary to promote the development of the bio based PTT fiber industry chain. Huaheng's 50000 t/a bio based PDO breakthrough in mass production will also provide a strong raw material guarantee for the development of the PDO-PTT industry chain market. For the future development of the alliance, he put forward three suggestions: everything Actively attract end brand companies to join the alliance, understand their needs, and promote collaborative innovation, product development and market expansion at upstream and downstream; Second Pay attention to the construction and cooperation mode of fiber brand, promote it in combination with the actual situation, and ensure the maximization of brand value; Third Further improve the transformation efficiency, ensure the stability and consistency of product quality, actively explore the diversification of raw material sources, build a complete value chain system, and ensure the profit space of each link of the industrial chain. "The Association will also provide services and support for the high-quality development of the Alliance, thus promoting the development of the bio based PTT fiber industry." Chen Xinwei Say.
