Showing a rapid growth in demand for domestic rubber production capacity of fluoride exposure gap step by step

As China's automotive, aerospace, oil refining industries, such as the rapid development of domestic demand for fluorine rubber showing a trend of rapid growth. Data shows that since the mid-1990s, domestic consumption of fluorine rubber as much as the average annual growth rate of 31.6 percent; the 21st century, the year in individual consumption growth rate is nearly 50%. In 2001 the domestic consumption of fluorine rubber is about 1,500 tons this year, but demand is expected to reach 6500 tons, in 2010 the domestic market capacity of fluorine rubber is expected to rise to about 10,000 tons. But with the rapid growth of consumption, domestic production capacity of fluorine rubber currently far from meeting the needs of the domestic market to such an extent that many areas had to rely on imports from abroad.

Rubber is a special fluorine rubber, with no foul, non-toxic, non-combustible, heat-resistant, oxidation resistant, oil resistant chemicals, such as outstanding performance, mainly for the domestic automotive and aerospace. At present, domestic auto parts with fluorine rubber products, including the main oil seal, the patch engine, engine cylinder blocking circle, one-way valve oil filter, fuel flap, and so on. With the lead-free gasoline and EFI devices in the car on the use of the fuel hose in the layer has been gradually replaced by fluorine rubber NBR. China has developed independently by the fluorine rubber for the inner tube in Santana, Audi, Fukang car, and other widely used. In addition to the application of the auto industry, fluorine rubber seals used in the drilling machinery, equipment, oil refining, natural gas desulfurization devices. At the same time, in the aerospace, building materials, machinery and other areas of fluorine rubber also very important application. In China, consumption of fluorine rubber automotive industry currently accounts for about 40%, accounting for about 25% of the petrochemical industry, aerospace and other industries accounted for 35%. With the outstanding characteristics of fluorine rubber has been gradually recognized, fluorine rubber applications are increasingly widespread, with the attendant social demand is increasing rapidly. Only in the automotive industry, for example, in recent years because of auto production by leaps and bounds, experts estimate that only one car industry, in 2005 on the direct needs of fluorine rubber will be 4000 tons, the maintenance of consumption in l000 tons. According to the Automotive Industry Development predicted that the domestic automobile industry in 2010 for the fluorine rubber demand will reach about 7500 tons. In addition domestic military industry, aerospace, water conservancy facilities in the area of fluorine rubber demand growth is expected this year, these areas will consume about 1,500 tons of rubber fluoride.

At present, with the rapid growth of consumption, domestic production capacity of fluorine rubber currently far from meeting the needs of the domestic market. It is learned that major rubber producers have fluoride Shanghai love the rich new materials Co., Ltd., Sichuan Chemical Industry Institute of dawn and chemical companies, Jiangsu Meilan several, with a total production capacity of about 3500 tons / year, relative to about 6500 tons The annual consumption this year will be about 3,000 tons of the shortfall, the current domestic price of fluorine rubber all the way up, many users have to direct from the United States, Italy and Russia imports.

For the domestic market demand for fluorine rubber rapid growth, Shanghai and Sichuan, three love the rich light of the morning are actively expanding production capacity, such as the Shanghai Fu Three love investment is 350,000,000 yuan in Shanghai Caojing Chemical Industry Zone of the construction of a new fluorine chemical production base in light of the morning Institute is also actively developing new varieties and new construction of fluorine rubber production line. In addition of fluoride compounds the largest domestic manufacturer of Zhejiang-based giant is using its materials and technologies involved in the production of fluorine rubber. While these projects have been implemented, but with the strong market demand, there were still many gaps.
