It coincides with the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the China Polyurethane Industry Association. Chairman Yang feels a great responsibility and is full of confidence in the newly elected chairman of the association. The past two decades have been the fastest-growing polyurethane industry, and many remarkable achievements have been made. Chairman Yang said that in the past 20 years, my country’s polyurethane industry has undergone earth-shaking changes. The total output of polyurethane has grown from hundreds of thousands of tons to nearly 10 million tons today, an increase of dozens of times. The transformation from a large country to an exporting country and an advanced manufacturing powerhouse today. At the same time, a large number of excellent polyurethane industry manufacturers have also been produced. Chairman Yang also introduced to reporters that at this year’s commendation meeting for the 20th anniversary of the establishment of the association, a group of manufacturers such as Wanhua, Huafeng, Hongbaoli, and Liming Chemical Research Institute Advanced enterprises have been commended. Li Junxian, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, Ding Jiansheng, chairman of Yantai Wanhua Chemical Group Co., Ltd., Li Zhiqiang, former director of Liming Chemical Research Institute, and You Xiaoping, chairman of the board of directors of Huafon Group, were also commended.

Regarding the future work plan, Chairman Yang said that the association will further deepen and increase the cooperation between industries and enterprises in the future, and the responsibilities and tasks have a long way to go. Looking at the world, China’s polyurethane production capacity has reached 20 million tons, accounting for 40% of the world, and it still maintains an annual growth rate of about 11%, while the growth rate of foreign developed countries remains at about 4%. The 12th Five-Year Plan of the industry is to gradually expand the industry according to the established goals; and the goal of the 13th Five-Year Plan next year is to strengthen the industry. In fact, this year the association has already started the 13th Five-Year Conduct investigations, visit enterprises, conduct in-depth communication and research with enterprises, and report the research results to the Petrochemical Federation. At the same time, as an industry organization, it is necessary to actively formulate industry standards, do more useful work, provide guidance services, coordinate the domestic polyurethane industry, plan industrial layout, and avoid excessive vicious competition. The association must play an active role in these aspects.
the
The association always adheres to the tenet of “service, innovation, openness and cooperation”, adheres to the guidance of Deng Xiaoping Theory, the important thought of “Three Represents” and the scientific development concept, leads the industry and enterprises to adjust the structure and change the mode, and promote the rapid and stable growth of the polyurethane industry. Chairman Yang said. At present, the production and sales volume of polyurethane in my country ranks first in the world, and the production technology level of main bulk raw materials and products has reached or approached the international level. There is a considerable gap, “We must also be soberly aware that there is still a long time to go from a polyurethane power to a polyurethane power.” Chairman Yang told us.
the
In view of the current overcapacity problem in the polyurethane industry, Chairman Yang analyzed that there is still room for new growth in the industry, such as building materials insulation and automobiles. Developed countries such as Japan plan to gradually complete the replacement of polyurethane materials in the construction field in the next 10 years, including the replacement of rock wool and other external wall materials. Polyurethane also has a lot of room for doors and windows. It is understood that BASF and Huntsman are also in According to research, compared with materials with poor thermal insulation effects such as plastic steel that is easily deformed, the use of polyurethane materials for doors and windows has obvious advantages. Another big fast-growing field is still the automobile industry chain. According to European and American auto market statistics, each car in developed countries consumes 30-35kg of polyurethane, while in China it is only about 20kg at present. Automobile lightweight is also the future development trend of the automobile industry. In addition, the cost of polyurethane for medium and high-end automobiles is high, and overcapacity can promote these The extensive application of materials in the automotive field enables companies to reduce costs and use better and more advanced materials and technologies to benefit more people. Therefore, from another perspective, overcapacity is actually a double-edged Swords have pros and cons.
the
Compared with the high profits of raw material companies in the past, the current market product profits have gradually become transparent. At the same time, many companies will expand production and launch some new projects. The competition in the polyurethane industry is fierce. Chairman Yang believes that compared with developed countries, China is already ahead of foreign countries in the fields of polyurethane foam and high resilience, but lags behind foreign countries in the fields of adhesives and resins. In the downstream application field, there are too many popular products in the market, little differentiation, and obviously insufficient market segments. China has a basic guarantee of a population of 1.4 billion, and the country is vigorously promoting urbanization. If companies do not continue to innovate in technology in the future and rely solely on foreign technology, they can only maintain traditional growth, but cannot ensure high profits. Due to core technology reasons, the emerging niche product market will still remain in the future.��There will be high-profit return on investment, such as pipes, elastomers, printing, polyurethane rubber sticks, rubber and other products, and increasing technological innovation will be the key point for the development of the industry.

When the reporter mentioned the “China Polyurethane Building Insulation Materials National Promotion Conference” to be held in Inner Mongolia in mid-September, Chairman Yang introduced that polyurethane exterior wall insulation will still maintain a certain growth rate in the next 5-10 years. The domestic market for external wall insulation is huge, but in terms of directly facing downstream end customers, we also need to change the promotion method and increase promotion efforts so that more people can understand the high-quality product performance of polyurethane materials. “We have achieved the world’s first in material application and shoe-making technology, but many people do not fully understand the excellent performance of polyurethane materials in external wall insulation. This requires cooperation with professional media in the industry in the early stage, using industry associations as a platform , with the help of the rapid development of the Internet to deliver timely information, and vigorously promote the work will bring new development opportunities for more related enterprises.” Chairman Yang added.
the
“Green, energy saving, and environmental protection” is the development trend of the chemical industry in the future. When talking about what measures the association will take to help chemical companies embark on the “green” road in the future, Chairman Yang said that the association will assist enterprises to speed up technological innovation. Accelerate the replacement of traditional technology and improve the production environment. There are rigid indicators for the operating environment; on the other hand, further vigorously promote the renewable utilization of polyurethane materials, accelerate the development of thermoplastic products, so that the products can be degraded and recycled; at the same time, all relevant enterprises should improve the level of process equipment , For factories with poor corporate environment, it is necessary to formulate standards and raise the threshold.
the
“Overcapacity in the industry is also an opportunity. In the future, we will help enterprises build more cooperation platforms, provide enterprises with industrial development consulting, technical training and other services, encourage enterprises to bravely go abroad, assist enterprises to speed up technology research and development, and serve enterprises. Development creates new opportunities, we are confident in resolving overcapacity in the polyurethane industry, and the reform and development of the polyurethane industry also requires the support and cooperation of the media.” Chairman Yang emphasized.
