Safety rapid development of environmentally friendly adhesives

Since the implementation of the "interior decoration materials harmful substances limited," the 10 mandatory standards, China's environment-friendly production of adhesive technologies and products much attention adhesive continuously improve the safety, there have been encouraging, but the safety of environmentally friendly adhesives Development is a long-term process, efforts need to continue to strengthen.
Adhesive is a kind of chemical products, man-made board for the production, construction materials, packaging industry, trade marks, the footwear industry, transportation and electronic home appliance industry.
At present, many adhesives businesses and research institutions have been strictly enforced GBl8580-2001 and GBl8583-2001 standard, and so on, active research and development and the introduction of low toxicity, non-toxic, high-solids, solvent-free and water-based adhesives, such as production technology and products, production equipment Continue to improve, continuously improve the quality of new products, new security environment-friendly products are emerging, the basic stamp out the use of benzene. China's industrial adhesives industry has been basically realized, in part to replace the imported, and even a considerable amount of exports.
With the rapid increase in high-end products, the original low-to mid-market-based adhesives have begun to show diversity. The industry believes that the high-, medium-and low-grade products to the market demand in the future for a long period of time co-exist. Quality of general-purpose, low-grade products in the market share of about 60% and 7% annual growth rate of 9% is expected within the next 10 years will continue to maintain this momentum of growth. High-performance high-quality products has developed very rapidly in the general growth rate of 12% or more, some as high as 20 to 40% of future growth is expected to be higher than 10%, a very good development prospects. With China's rapid economic development, special adhesive and its products will be growing demand, has a lot of room for development.
However, China's adhesive industry bottlenecks remain, mainly the key raw materials, high-performance needs of high-quality imported additives, in the short term can not be solved internally, it will have an impact on the further development of industrial adhesives. Adhesives in 2004 to increase competition in the market, the world's leading adhesive manufacturers have entered the Chinese market, the world's top 11 companies in China have set up joint ventures or wholly owned enterprises. Mainland China accounts for sales of adhesives total sales of around 40% of high-tech products in the market has been dominant.
The production of adhesives in the future development direction is toward large-scale, intensive. Some small-scale, backward technology and equipment, low-grade product of small and medium-sized enterprises have been laid off and some of the large scale of production, high technology, good quality companies will accelerate the development of new technologies, new products and brand the pace of training, and constantly enhance their strength And market competitiveness. Environmental protection, energy-saving products and accelerate development. With environmental protection and treasure the idea of increasing resources for people on the adhesive with high solid content, solvent-free, water-based, light-cured (uv), and other environment-friendly and low-temperature curing, waste recycling, such as the production of energy-saving technology will become more and more Attention and increasing research and development efforts. Epoxy resin, such as low toxicity, non-toxic, water-based, easily biodegradable, such as environmental protection, energy-saving products in a short period of time will further speed up the development of this industry to achieve the production of environmental protection.
