Increase income and reduce expenditure structure of the rubber material to be transferred

The rubber industry raw materials are the main rubber, synthetic fiber and steel wire frame, and other materials, such as carbon black reinforcing agent, rubber additives, and so on, the most important of which is of strategic materials as rubber, the cost of their products account for about 60% of the cost. As a result, rubber materials in the rubber industry in the economic cycle plays an important role.

China's rubber industry in the development of circular economy in the guiding ideology, the focus is to improve the utilization rate of resources and to reduce rubber scrap rubber volume occurred as the goal, the adjustment of rubber materials, rubber and rubber scrap the use of the product mix, improve China's rubber industry cycle chain of Economy, Trade and Industry, The gradual establishment of conditions for the rubber industry cycle of economic development mechanism and mode of operation.

In the past, China's rubber industry there are some misconceptions, mainly the pursuit of pure speed, ignore the resources and the environment; great importance to enterprises, social neglect; only the production of new products, ignored the use of waste products. In the increasingly strained resources, increase income and reduce expenditure, to maximize the Synthetic and natural rubber production and increase the varieties and expanding other polymer material production and application of rubber used to make full use of resources, implementation of the rubber industry has become a cycle of the economy.

To this end, China Rubber Industry Association of rubber materials to adjust the structure of the following:

From a long-term, to address the acute shortage of domestic natural rubber resources of the situation, according to the International Rubber Organization has forecast that the world rubber materials will be in short supply in the long-term situation, in particular the contradictions between supply and demand of natural rubber have become more prominent. To resolve the long-term stable supply of rubber, rubber industry in China is not only the foundation for the development and national security needs. To that end: the stable development of China's natural rubber production, to increase support for national policies to maximize the area under cultivation to increase production per unit area, and will strive to double production to 1,000,000 tons; encourage foreign investment, private capital investment in natural rubber industry; Farm to speed up structural reform, reduce costs and improve competitiveness; encourage land reclamation and cultivation, rubber processing, rubber circulation enterprises to invest in the countries in Southeast Asia, the development of natural rubber production.

Synthetic due to the industrial development of China's natural rubber production potential is not, therefore, increase the resources available for Synthetic raise the proportion of the use of Synthetic become China's rubber resources to address the shortage of options. : The expansion of butadiene rubber and SBR production, import or use of its own technological development isoamyl rubber.

The expansion of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) and liquid rubber production and application of rubber industry is currently the main material used in addition to natural rubber, Synthetic, there are thermoplastic elastomer and liquid rubber. In recent decades, thermoplastic elastomer has been a great development. As the thermoplastic elastomer both the mechanical properties of rubber and plastic processing performance, is expected to return at the same time and waste products can also reuse is different from a new rubber and plastic polymer materials. In 2002 its production reached 1,600,000 tons, is expected in 2010 will reach 2,500,000 tons more than the fully thermoplastic elastomer potential for development. Currently developed TPE to more than a dozen varieties have been replaced by part of the Synthetic and natural rubber, in addition to the widely used tires outside the range of rubber products, which the vehicle is a thermoplastic elastomer the bulk, accounting for 1 / 3. I believe in the near future, be able to fully replace the rubber of a high-performance thermoplastic elastomer, there will certainly be. At that time, the main industrial rubber materials, production processes and so on, will be a fundamental change, but also will be able to solve the scrap rubber recycling problem.

Liquid Rubber is to replace the rubber is very promising of the main materials, rubber industry innovation is the most fundamental way. It will enable complex processing of solid-state changed to a simple liquid processing, and cut off the heavy and large processing equipment, greatly simplifies the process so that the mixture of materials, molding, curing integration. Liquid Rubber is a high-profile polyurethane rubber, the annual output has reached more than 100 million tons, mainly used for the first shoe-making and flexible porous material, after the tape for a gradual, pipes, plastic products such as roller, in recent years with a large number of Bicycle production in the fetal, solid tire, industrial and agricultural tires and tire-slow tire. These products are durable, bright colors, and welcomed by customers. However, for high-speed tire is still in development.

Eucommia the development of rubber, natural rubber to make up for lack of comprehensive utilization of Eucommia tree at a high price in China in its pharmaceutical, rubber processing materials in such areas as a lot of work and achieved initial progress in the development of some of the rubber. Suggested that the state support the formation of Gutta and application of mass production, opening up new resources of natural rubber.
