Engineering Plastics: Petrochemical Industrial Restructuring In The New Highlight - Engineering
Editor's note: February 19, the State Council examined and approved in principle pallet the petrochemical industry, light industry and the revitalization plan that has long ranked high in the fine chemical industry Chemical industry Products and the slow development of new materials, backward technology, domestic demand was mainly dependent on imports, with particular reference to silicone, Polyester And engineering plastics and other chemical new materials, planning rules is bound to revive these industries will carry out specific guidance. In addition, the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" has Polycarbonate , POM, PA, PBT, LCP, polyphenylene ether, polyphenylene sulfide, polyether ether ketone such as engineering plastics innovation, to develop the key products. National policy for the first time the development of engineering plastics speed, then the current state of development of China Engineering Plastics Industry How? Slow process of industrialization constraints have? Compared with foreign advanced level
behind? Global Economy Impact on the engineering plastics industry landslide geometry? Editorial office to invite the industry to discuss with you the problems existing in engineering plastics industry, forecasting future trends ... ...
Recent years, sustained and stable development of China's national economy, especially in the automotive, electrical and electronic manufacturing engineering plastics demand spurred the rapid development of the rapid growth, rapid increase in industry capacity, product variety is increasing. Industry output from 1999 to 2008, average annual growth of over 20%, firm size has grown in strength,
Increasing scientific and technological level, have gradually formed a synthetic resin, plastic and alloy modification, processing and application of relevant supporting capacity of complete industrial chain. However, the engineering plastics industry in China is still at an early stage of development of high-speed growth, while the impact of the global economic downturn, sharply lower export products, the decreased demand for engineering plastics. Engineering Plastics Industry Association, according to forecasts, in 2009 domestic demand for engineering plastics will decline by 10% to 15%, the estimated sales of about 2 million t. As the good performance engineering plastics and non-substitutability, international and domestic market demand for engineering plastics, have great rigidity in the digest after the social stock, domestic and external demand will still maintain a relatively stable growth in domestic construction is expected by the end of 2009 plastics market will gradually pick up.
Serious shortage of self-sufficiency Recent years, the world's engineering plastics consumption rate of an average annual increase of 4.6% in 2007 to reach 14 million t. Because of its irreplaceable in many areas and downstream needs strong support in recent years, China's plastics consumption is increasing rapidly, "15" up to 26.2% average annual growth rate (see Table 1). "Eleventh Five-Year"
Period, electronic communications, automotive, building materials, office equipment, and household plastics and other industries are still driving the rapid growth of the main driving force, average annual consumption growth of engineering plastics is expected to reach 18% to the total demand in 2013 may up to 3 million t.
The end of 2007 and the Chinese Engineering Plastics Modified plastics Approximately 300 production enterprises, the main varieties of PA, PBT, POM production capacity nearly 200 000 t / a, modified resin production capacity over 620,000 t / a. In addition, Jilin, Yanshan Petrochemical, Shijiazhuang Refinery and other large companies are negotiating with foreign investors Cooperation , About to enter the engineering plastics industry. Although rising production in China Engineering Plastics, increasing variety, but still can not meet the domestic economic development and market growth,
Is now about 2 / 3 of the engineering plastics demand is still rely on imports (see Table 2), most of the domestic market by foreign manufacturers in the country. To the "Eleventh Five-Year" end of the expected total demand of engineering plastics in China will reach Tấm lợp 2. Tấm lợp 583 million t, which PA50 million t, PC 1.5 million t, POM30 million t, PBT20 million t, PPO5 million t, special engineering plastics 33 000 t, and then five plastic domestic production only reached 1.3 million t / a, annual production of about 900,000 t, self-sufficiency rate of only 1 / 3.
