In 2020, China's modified plastics industry has high import substitution demand in the market

【Chemical machinery equipment network market analysis ] Modified plastics are currently widely used in home appliances, automobiles, communications, medical, electronic and electrical, rail transit, precision instruments, home building materials, security, aerospace, * and other fields.
From 2010 to 2019, my country's modified plastics also achieved a rapid increase, from an annual output of 7.
05 million tons in 2010 to about 19.
55 million tons in 2019; the modification rate increased from 16.
2% in 2010 to 2019 Of 20.
4%.

 

Modified plastics are widely used downstream
 

As one of the three major polymer compounds, plastics are polymerized by various resins formed by the petrochemical industry through addition polymerization or polycondensation reactions.
With the characteristics of light weight, high strength, insulation, light transmission, and wear resistance, they are currently widely used In the various production activities of human society.

 

With the characteristics of light weight, high strength, insulation, light transmission, and wear resistance, plastics are currently widely used in various production activities in human society and have a wide range of downstream applications.
But the plastic itself has poor heat resistance, large thermal expansion coefficient, easy to burn; poor low temperature resistance, it becomes brittle at low temperature; it is prone to aging under the action of the atmosphere, sunlight, *, or certain media.
The above shortcomings limit the plastic Further extensive applications.

 

　　Therefore, in some industries or usage scenarios that require high material performance, plastics need to be modified to meet the performance requirements.
Plastic modification refers to the addition of suitable additives, fillers or other polymer components on the basis of general plastics, engineering plastics or special engineering plastics, and processing and modification by means of filling, toughening, reinforcement, etc.
, to improve the plastic material in a certain Some aspects of performance.
The plastic processed by the above modification technology is called modified plastic.
Generally speaking, the performance of modified plastics is better than plastics in terms of flame retardancy, strength, impact resistance, and aging resistance.
The main plastic modification methods are as follows:

　　The upstream of polymer modified materials is the petrochemical industry, the upstream raw materials are generally various synthetic resins and various additives and modified filling materials, etc.
, and the downstream mainly covers home appliances, automobiles, communications, electronic and electrical, medical, rail transit, and precision instruments.
, Home building materials, security, aerospace, * and other fields.

　　There is a certain overlap in the application industry of modified plastics and plastics.
Customers choose suitable materials according to the specific requirements of different products or components: When the material performance requirements are relatively single and the conventional plastics can meet the requirements, customers usually use standardized Conventional plastics; when conventional plastics cannot meet customer customization requirements due to insufficient performance in certain aspects, or customers seek to reduce the cost of using conventional engineering plastics or special engineering plastics, modified plastics are required to meet the requirements.

 

　　Although there is no strict division between the downstream application industries of modified plastics and plastics, the two occupy a dominant position in different fields.
In industries such as daily necessities and product packaging, unmodified plastics are currently mainly used as raw materials; while in areas with complex usage scenarios and high material performance requirements such as automobiles, electronic and electrical, and communications, most conventional plastic varieties cannot Directly used to manufacture products, modified plastics are widely used.

　　The plastic modification rate continues to increase

　　——Increased demand for import substitution
 

　　The modified plastics industry has many years of development history in many developed countries.
Large chemical companies such as BASF, Dow, DuPont, SABIC, etc.
have obvious advantages in raw material supply, business scale, and technology accumulation.
In terms of formula research and development, processing and manufacturing, brand quality, etc.
, the products are widely used in the field.
In contrast, most domestic modified plastics companies began to rise after the development of domestic home appliances and automobile industries.
Although they have developed rapidly in recent years, there is still a certain gap between their comprehensive competitiveness and large chemical companies.
The sex plastics market is still dominated by imports, and there is a large demand for import substitution.

 

　　In recent years, large-scale domestic enterprises in the industry have continuously increased R&D investment, and the technological gap with large enterprises has gradually narrowed.
Some enterprises have gradually penetrated the market by researching and developing functional and high-performance products.
On the other hand, in recent years, as my country's upstream petrochemical companies continue to strengthen independent research and development of products, it has also driven the overall innovation of the domestic modified plastics industry to accelerate.
As my country has continued to promote economic transformation and industrial upgrading in recent years, the import substitution demand of modified plastics in China has become increasingly urgent, providing good development opportunities for domestic industries with strong technical strength.
