At present, there are many problems in the development of domestic fluorine chemicals: widespread investment in the basic fluorine chemical industry chain, excessive expansion of fluorine chemical product capacity and market demand for products, especially hydrofluoric acid, aluminum fluoride, F22, HFC-134a, poly Tetrafluoroethylene and other devices; fluorine chemical industry in a low price, self-vicious competition, suppressing the domestic and foreign fluorine product prices, product profit margins not only decreased, even close to the cost or even the phenomenon of loss; China became a cheap primary fluorine products The world's factories, while high-end products (especially fluoropolymers) need to rely on foreign companies to import and so on. To sum up the above problems, the reasons are mostly due to the unreasonable industrial structure.
The State has issued the "Planning and Revitalization Plan for the Petrochemical Industry". Although the "Planning" does not directly provide guidance to China's fluorine chemical industry, Liu Xintian, editor-in-chief of the China Chemical Network Information Center, believes that the concept of "planning" will be deeply interpreted and the Chinese fluorine chemical industry Structural adjustment is imperative.
How to adjust the industrial structure? From the perspective of international trends, new fluorine materials are one of the development priorities. Domestic companies such as San Aifu and others have already done a good job in the layout of pilot projects. Although there is a big gap between the technology and the size of the leading companies in the world, Chinese companies have local resources and are expected to compete with international giants such as 3M in the future. .
In addition to fluorine materials, fluorine chemical organic intermediates and fine fluorine products are most suitable for China's fluorine chemical industry. The experts of China National Chemical Industry Network Fluorine Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. have learned that the fluorine chemical intermediates (for fluorine-containing pharmaceuticals and pesticides), fluorine-containing liquid crystals (for electronic materials), inorganic fluorine chemicals Products such as boron trifluoride and related complexes (for pharmaceuticals, resins), nitrogen trifluoride (for electronic materials), and the like. There have been a number of far-sighted fluorine chemical companies in the country who have tasted the sweetness in these areas, but overall, the development of these areas is still far from sufficient in quantity and quality.
The commonness of the new fluorine materials, fluorine-containing organic intermediates and refined fluorine products lies in deep processing, which increases the added value and use value of fluorine chemical products, broadens the product market, and increases product competitiveness. Guiding, cultivating, and building a batch of new fluorine materials, fluorine-containing organic intermediates, and research, production, and service companies for refined fluorine products should be the direction of structural adjustment of China's fluorine chemical industry.
Fluorination workers do not need structural adjustment products to refine the trend
China's fluorine chemical industry has maintained a strong momentum of development since the 1990s. It has nurtured industry giants such as Dongyue, Juhua, San Aifu, etc., which have a turnover of more than 10 billion yuan. It has also supported more than 1,000 small and medium-sized fluorine chemical workers. enterprise. However, the global economic crisis that began last year has already had a huge impact on the booming Chinese fluorine chemical industry. In November 2008, the first fluorite-hydrofluoric acid-fluorochemical industry chain summit forum co-sponsored by China Chemical Industry Network and Quzhou City Government, some experts pointed out that China's fluorine chemical industry appears to be prosperous; actual upstream enterprises in the industrial chain are too Concentration, low-end overproduction, lack of R&D capabilities, lack of high value-added products, and flaws in the industrial structure. The facts also proved the opinion of experts that the economic crisis has severely dampened the profitability of the upstream products of fluorinated chemicals (fluorite and hydrofluoric acid prices have been declining all the way), but has little effect on the downstream products of fluorinated workers. Based on this, China's fluorine chemical industry, especially the upstream hydrofluoric acid, aluminum fluoride processing enterprises 08,09 decline in efficiency, while the international fluorine chemical companies such as BASF, Daikin, as always, increase the fluorine resin, fluorine coating, fluorine Rubber's R&D, production, scale, and efficiency have been in good development.
