China's plastics industry ranks among the largest countries in the world. Along with the growth of the plastics industry, the plastics additives industry has also developed rapidly and has achieved brilliant results. However, plastic additives are the key to general-purpose plastics engineering, the indispensable components of high-performance engineering plastics, and the key to the functionalization of synthetic resin modification. During the “Eleventh Five-Year Plan†period, the development of the whole industry is mainly focused on the scale of general-purpose varieties. In chemical production, few structural innovation products are seen. At the same time, most of the production adopts patent technology from foreign companies. Therefore, the research, development, and production of high-performance green, environmentally friendly, nontoxic, and highly efficient plastic additives have become China's plastic additives in the future. The main direction of development of the industry.
At the moment when the country actively promotes the implementation and implementation of macroeconomic policies and industrial revitalization plans that change the mode of development, adjust the industrial structure, and promote industrial upgrading, the industry generally believes that during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†period, the transformation and upgrading of plastics additives industry will focus on Accelerate the pace of independent innovation.
Increased consumption prospects
According to Liao Authentic President of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, China's plastics additives industry initially developed with the PVC industry. With the development of various types of synthetic resin industry, the application fields of plastic auxiliaries have been continuously expanded, and the product varieties have been greatly increased. After decades of development, as of now, the entire industry has more than 1,000 enterprises, and the enterprises have made great progress in terms of technology level, product structure, production scale, and the quality of scientific and technical personnel, etc., becoming relatively complete categories and a wide variety of products. Important industries basically meet the downstream industry's demand for plastic additives products. At present, China's plastics additives industry has already formed an industry with an output value of over 30 billion yuan, of which about 5 billion yuan is exported.
Liao authentic told reporters that during the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, China's plastics industry has shown a clear trend of industrial clustering, the number of large-scale enterprises has grown rapidly, and the industrial structure has gradually been adjusted to scale and intensification. The plastics additives industry is also moving towards scale and intensification, which is particularly evident in plasticizers, heat stabilizers, impact modifiers and processing aids. Most of China's plastics additives industry actively develop new products, innovate processes, and improve product quality in accordance with market demand, in order to meet the requirements of the economic development of the enterprise. With the implementation of national macroeconomic policies and industrial revitalization plans, China's plastics additives industry will continue to maintain a steady and rapid growth momentum, and its development prospects are promising.
The reporter learned from the interview that China’s plastics additives industry has grown with the development of the petrochemical industry and has become an important branch of the fine chemical industry. China's plastic additives have made great progress in technology, products, and scale. Since 2005, the average annual growth rate of China's plastics additives has remained at around 10%, far higher than the average annual growth rate of 4% of the world's plastics additives. The plastics additives industry has also received attention from various departments of the country, and has gradually become an important member in the field of new materials with the most potential for development in recent years. In 2008, 2009, and 2010, the consumption of plastics additives in China was about 2.73 million tons, 2.82 million tons, and 3 million tons, respectively, and in 2011 it is expected to be about 3.2 million tons.
During the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, China's plastics additives industry has undergone tremendous changes due to the influences of upstream and downstream. On the one hand, the continuous growth of plastics additives is due to the dramatic increase in resin production and the market demand; on the other hand, the discontinuity of oil prices. The rise in prices has led to a substantial increase in the prices of raw materials for plastics additives, which has led to a decline in the profits of plastics additives. Under this background, market transfer, industrial restructuring, price increase, and the formation of new profit growth points through new products and new technologies have become major measures for large-scale plastics additives manufacturers in China. With the increasingly stringent international environmental protection laws and their successive mandatory implementation, the plastics additives industry is faced with more than just the impact of raw material prices. Green environmental protection has brought unprecedented competitive pressures to industry companies and has also brought about New opportunities for development.
The transformation and upgrading focus on independent innovation
In view of the current state of industrial development and the many problems that existed above, during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†period, how can China's plastics auxiliary industry embark on a scientific sustainable development path?
According to the reporter's understanding, the “12th Five-Year†plastic auxiliaries industry is eager to take the road of transformation and upgrading, and the industry generally believes that the transformation and upgrading focus on independent innovation. The specific objectives are: to accelerate the pace of technological innovation, and actively develop green, environmentally friendly, non-toxic, high-efficiency plastic additives high-end products, to achieve the purpose of value-added and efficiency.
In an interview with reporters, Gong Liucheng said that the “transformation and upgrading†of plastics additives industry focuses on independent innovation. During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†period, in accordance with the requirements of the country’s “conversion of economic growth mode, adjustment of economic structure, and creation of a new type of strategic industryâ€, the plastics auxiliary industry will accelerate the transformation of “high consumption, high emission, hard circulation, and low efficiencyâ€. The extensive mode of growth has restricted the development of high-pollution, high-consumption, and resource-based products, and achieved energy conservation, emission reduction, and industrial upgrading by adjusting the structure, promoting new independent technologies, and strengthening industry standardization and standardization management.
Gong Liucheng emphasized that during the “12th Five-Year Plan†period, plastic auxiliaries must rely on technological innovation to extend themselves to the high-end, increase the self-sufficiency rate of high-end products, advocate the development of the park, increase the upstream and downstream, strengthen the industrial chain, and prevent small companies from producing with large companies. Similar products, to avoid vicious competition, and to seek a sustainable, environmentally friendly chemical industry sustainable development. On this basis, the entire industry will maintain a steady and rapid growth.
What should industry companies do?
“China is a big producer of plastic additives, but it is not a strong country. Only by continuously enhancing the independent innovation capability of China's plastics auxiliary industry can we increase our overall competitiveness.†said Chen Yuru, dean of the Guangdong South China Institute of Fine Chemicals.
In Chen Yu's opinion, improving the industry's ability to independently innovate starts with three aspects:
First of all, industry enterprises must expand the scale of the industry by strengthening the cooperation with scientific research units to achieve economies of scale. We must organize production, research, and research to reduce production costs and energy consumption.
Secondly, industry companies should strengthen the research and development of functional additives, and while expanding the production scale of existing products, pay attention to product structure adjustment and strengthen the research and development of high-efficiency and low-toxic products. We will continue to speed up the development and utilization of new functional auxiliaries such as nucleating agents, antibacterial agents, nanomaterials, infrared blocking agents, and degradation agents that solve the “white pollution†problem, and continuously improve the quality performance of plastic products and expand the application fields.
Third, enterprises must comprehensively use resources and actively develop new varieties. In order to adapt to the ever-changing demands of the market, we must constantly develop new varieties to meet different individual needs. The development of new products not only needs to invest huge scientific research power, but also should actively rely on China’s unique resource advantages to develop distinctive new products. Heat stabilizer is one of the fastest growing categories in China's plastics additives industry. Among them, rare earth heat stabilizers have the advantages of high efficiency, low toxicity, and low price. Due to the abundant rare earth resources in China, the development of non-toxic and cost-effective rare earth heat stabilizers With unique advantages, the current production has begun to take shape, in the future should be the focus of research and development.
The well-known plastics additives company with antioxidants and light stabilizers, Li Jie, director of the Beijing Additives Research Institute, also discussed his views. Li Jie believes that the future development of plastics additives industry, technological innovation is the only way. "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" domestic plastic antioxidants and light stabilizers companies should strengthen the company's technological strength and human strength as the fundamental, adapt to the trend of increasing labor costs and strict environmental protection, and grasp international and domestic petrochemical industries and plastics processing. A good opportunity for the rapid development of the industry and related industries, actively participate in the international market competition, and greatly increase the level of scientific research and development, production technology, product quality, application technology and enterprise management of the company or industry, so that the overall level of domestic enterprises or industry At the end of 2015, it is approaching the general level of international companies in the same industry.
Li Jie predicts that plastics additive production capacity and production volume are expected to double in the next five years. From 2011 to 2015, with the development of the domestic synthetic resin and plastics processing industry, and the increasing demand from foreign manufacturers and merchants, it is expected to double the production capacity and output of plastic antioxidants, and the output of light stabilizers is expected to reach 200%. Increase. By 2015, it is expected that the total output of major antioxidants, hindered phenols, phosphites, and inclusions will reach 210,000 tons/year and the output will reach 189,000 tons; the main light stabilizer species, hindered amines, The total production capacity of benzotriazole and benzophenone is expected to reach 50,500 tons/year and the output will reach 46,000 tons.
When the wind breaks, there will be time. We believe that in the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†and even the future, under the guidance of the banner of independent innovation, China's plastics auxiliary industry will continue to improve its overall management level, transform its extensive management model, and constantly open up new advantages in traditional industries to speed up product replacement. At the same time, it actively responds to new challenges and strives to seize opportunities to improve plastics.
Many problems restrict competitiveness
"Although China's plastics additives industry already has a certain scale, many problems that restrict the development of the industry are also very prominent." Gong Liucheng, vice chairman of the Plastics Additives Professional Committee of the China Plastics Processing Industry Association, said to reporters with such anxiety.
Gong Liucheng pointed out that at present, the main problems in China's plastics additives industry are as follows:
First, most of China's plastics additives companies are small and medium-sized enterprises. Their management level is relatively low, and there are fewer large and medium-sized backbone enterprises. Many products do not form intensive scale operations. China is already the world's largest producer of plastic additives. However, there is a large gap between the production capacity of enterprises and developed countries. Foreign companies are mostly 10,000 tons and 100,000 tons, while most of our enterprises are 10,000 tons or even 100 tons. Companies above the tonne level are mainly concentrated in the field of plasticizers, and the number is small.
Second, the product structure is not reasonable, there are many low-end products, high-end products, high-quality, high value-added products. The added value of export products is lower. The high-end special varieties produced according to the individual needs of the customers are not many, and at the same time, the product quality is not stable enough. Some plastic additive products are monotonous and do not form a series system, and the industry lacks international famous brands.
Thirdly, compared with foreign advanced enterprises, Chinese enterprises’ arts and crafts are relatively backward, and key technologies and equipment mainly depend on imports. Some products also have high emissions and high pollution problems. The production technology and equipment of China's enterprises are relatively ageing, and some companies still use the devices built in the 1960s and the 1970s. These devices have low resource utilization, high material consumption, high energy consumption, and large amounts of sewage, and they cannot adapt to the current international market for plastic additives. Claim.
Fourth, the ability of independent innovation of enterprises is weak, and there is a lack of high-level professionals, and there is a lack of well-known brands in the industry. At present, China's corporate product research and development are generally based on imitation and lack of innovation. Although China has established a relatively complete scientific research and production system for plastic additives, it can basically meet the development needs of the plastics industry, and has also developed many new products, even some products have reached the world advanced level, but currently more than 80% of the auxiliary products For imitation products.
Shi Qiruo, chief engineer of Hangzhou Sanye Auxiliary New Material Co., Ltd., has the same feeling. He said that the industrial structure of China's plastics additives needs to be adjusted. Currently, the industry's production capacity is mainly distributed in the coastal areas. The development of the central and western regions is lagging behind while the export market is still mainly concentrated in Europe, the United States, and Japan. There is no diversified structure. Moreover, China's plastics additives industry products are mostly general-purpose medium and low-grade products, and there are few types of additives for engineering plastics, and the output is low. Most of the auxiliaries are small and medium-sized enterprises. Compared with developed countries, the technological level, technical equipment and technical power of the enterprises are relatively backward, and the technological level of the whole industry lags behind that of the developed countries for about 20 years.
In recent years, various countries have successively issued a series of directives and regulations, such as the European Union's "Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE Directive)" and "The Directive on the Prohibition of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS Directive)". The “Regulations on Chemicals Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction (REACH Regulations)†and the “Measures for the Control and Control of Pollution Caused by Electronic Information Products†in China, etc. These directives and regulations have a great impact on the plastics additives industry. The most influential is the plasticizer industry, followed by the flame retardant and thermal stabilizer industries. In addition, the “Burning Performance Requirements and Labels for Flame-Retardant Products and Components in Public Places†developed by the Ministry of Public Security has announced and implemented higher requirements for the flame retardancy of plastic products. Therefore, we should speed up the pace of technological innovation, and actively develop green, environmentally friendly, non-toxic, efficient plastic additives products become a top priority.
In addition, the current problems in the direction of investment in the new plastics additives industry in China are also one of the important bottlenecks restricting the development of the industry. Zhang Yongxiang, vice chairman of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Plastics Industry Association, pointed out that it is necessary to reverse the problem of inaccurate positioning of industry investment products as soon as possible.
Zhang Yongxiang told reporters that for a long period of time, there has been a widespread situation in the industry where the project does not investigate, blindly invest without analysis. At present, China's low-grade plasticizers, inorganic fillers, AC impact modifiers and other products have exceeded the supply of excess capacity, the competition among enterprises is very fierce. Due to the general increase in prices of various chemical raw materials in recent years, prices have gradually increased, and the profits of these auxiliaries that exceed supply have become very low. In the category of high-grade additives, domestic enterprises rarely get involved. Of the more than 300,000 tons of additives imported each year, more than 90% are high-grade additives. High-end auxiliaries have higher profits. Despite the need for stronger technical level and higher investment, the market is relatively stable. Enterprises should give more consideration when investing, instead of blindly pursuing projects with low investment and quick results.
Zhang Yongxiang also pointed out that at present, foreign plastics additives industry is moving toward the direction of large-scale production, detailed product specifications, multi-functionalization, and more safety and environmental protection. Faced with the gap between international advanced manufacturing enterprises, China's plastics additives companies should clearly define the direction of development, firmly grasp the development trend, follow the trend of development, and advance toward the high end. Only in this way can we continue to make strong plastics additives industry, establish development advantages in terms of industry scale efficiency, product quality, and product added value, and gain an opportunity in the international competition.
At the moment when the country actively promotes the implementation and implementation of macroeconomic policies and industrial revitalization plans that change the mode of development, adjust the industrial structure, and promote industrial upgrading, the industry generally believes that during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan†period, the transformation and upgrading of plastics additives industry will focus on Accelerate the pace of independent innovation.
