    China's organic silicon industry has a strong momentum of development
    .
    According to Cao Xianjun, vice chairman and secretary-general of China Fluorosilicone Organic Materials Industry Association, the production capacity of organic silicon methyl monomers in China is 3.
    705 million tons/year, accounting for 60.
    19% of the global production capacity of organic silicon monomers; it is expected that the new production capacity will be 700,000 tons by the end of the year.
    By the end of 2021, China's organosilicon methyl monomer production capacity will be 4.
    405 million tons per year, accounting for 64.

    Cao Xianjun pointed out that the current industry security is still severe
    .
    From January to May this year, the expert group of the Ministry of Emergency Management of the People's Republic of China on "Expert Guidance and Service Work for Organosilicon/Polysilicon Enterprises" conducted a survey on 16 organosilicon monomer production enterprises and 5 functional silanes with larger scale and more product types in the industry.
    Key enterprises carried out on-site guidance services
    .
    A total of 730 potential safety hazards were identified, including 195 issues involving key items (26.
    7%) and 10 major hidden dangers (1.
    4%), 2 companies stopped production for rectification, and 1 company had no special recommendations
    .

    From July to August, the expert group of “Expert Guidance Service Work for Fluorine Chemical Enterprises” of the Ministry of Emergency Management provided on-site guidance services to 107 fluorine chemical enterprises.
    The expert group found a total of 5,495 hidden dangers, including 143 major hidden dangers (accounting for 2.
    6%); 1,138 issues involving key inspection items (accounting for 20.
    7%); 77 rectification companies within a time limit, 30 suspend production and rectification companies, and 28.
    04% of the total number of safety inspection companies
    .

    Among the 30 enterprises that have stopped production for rectification, there are 6 companies in Liaoning Province, 6 companies in Shandong Province, 3 companies in Fujian, Jiangxi Province, and Sichuan Province, 2 companies in Hunan Province, Hebei Province, Henan Province, Heilongjiang Province, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Qinghai Province, Shaanxi Province, Tianjin City 1 each
    .

    Cao Xianjun emphasized that there are still many deficiencies in China's fluorosilicon industry.
    Although it is a big manufacturer of fluorosilicon materials, it is not a manufacturing power
    .
    Compared with world-renowned first-class multinational companies, most companies have gaps not only in talent, process technology, downstream product variety, quality, and application fields, but also in corporate safety, environmental protection, and social responsibility
    .

    Cao Xianjun pointed out that the fluorosilicon new material industry is an important part of China's national economy.
    It has become one of the industries with the fastest development, the most technological prospects and development advantages in the chemical industry.
    It is known as the "golden industry" in the industry.
    The conference is an opportunity to provide a platform for domestic and foreign counterparts to communicate with each other, and to make greater contributions to promoting the healthy and green development of China's fluorosilicon industry
