my country’s carbon black production technology is gradually maturing and production capacity is gradually increasing

Carbon black, also known as carbon black, mainly refers to black powdery or granular substances formed by incomplete combustion or hydrocarbon cracking. It has the advantages of good ultraviolet absorption, coloring, conductivity, etc. At this stage, the types of carbon black in my country are increasingly abundant. According to different uses, it can be divided into rubber carbon black and non-rubber carbon black. Among them, rubber carbon black can be subdivided into hard carbon black, soft carbon black, etc.; non-rubber carbon black is also called special carbon black, and can be subdivided into conductive carbon black, chromatic carbon black, and plastic carbon black. And special carbon black, etc.

After years of development, my country’s carbon black production technology has gradually matured, and can be roughly divided into incomplete combustion methods, thermal cracking methods, etc. Among them, the incomplete combustion method can be subdivided into oil furnace method, gas furnace method, spray method, lamp smoke method, tank method, drum method, gas mixing method, etc.; thermal cracking method includes thermal cracking method, acetylene method and plasma method. wait. At present, the oil furnace method has the advantages of high heat energy utilization, many adjustment methods, low energy consumption and low cost, and has become the main production process of carbon black in my country.

From the downstream of the industrial chain, carbon black is mostly used to produce colorants, antistatic agents, UV shielding agents, conductive agents and other products. It is widely used in inks, coatings, plastics, batteries, chemical fibers, electronic components, leather, chemical industry and other fields. widely used. Among them, tires have become the largest application market for carbon black, accounting for 67.2% of the overall market.

According to the “my country Carbon Black Industry Competition Landscape and Main Competitors Analysis Report 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center, the recent In the past few years, the income level of our country’s residents has gradually increased, the consumption structure has gradually upgraded, and cars have become one of the means of transportation for residents’ daily travel. As an important component of automobiles, tire market demand is gradually increasing. Moreover, as the part of the car that is in direct contact with the ground, tires suffer relatively large losses, and the need for replacement is constantly increasing. Therefore, the scale of my country’s tire market is gradually expanding. Carbon black is an important raw material for the production of tires, and its market demand is gradually growing. As my country’s carbon black preparation technology gradually matures, carbon black production gradually increases. According to data released by the China Rubber Industry Association, in 2022, my country’s carbon black production capacity will be 9.25 million tons, of which only about 400,000 tons of special carbon black will be produced.

Industry analysts said that at present, my country’s carbon black market concentration is relatively high, and leading companies are gradually emerging. The largest carbon black companies in my country mainly include Black Cat Carbon Black, Yongdong Chemical, Anlun Chemical, Longxing Chemical, Jinneng Technology, Baohua Carbon Black, China Resources Carbon Black, Huafeng Chemical, Shanxi Coking, etc. Among them, Black Cat Carbon Black has a relatively high market share of 14.7%, and has gradually become the leading company in the industry. As my country’s carbon black market continues to develop, small and medium-sized backward enterprises will gradually withdraw from the market in the future, the market structure will gradually be optimized, leading enterprises will further consolidate their dominant position, and market concentration is expected to increase.
