    Recently, Shanghai Petrochemical's fourth-generation high-rigidity polypropylene foam E800BHM was put on the market, successfully replacing imported products and being used by a domestic downstream company in the manufacture of high-end automotive lightweight parts.


    After being unwilling, challenge the technical barriers of imported products

    Polypropylene foam is a new environmentally friendly and impact-resistant material.


    In 2013, Shanghai Petrochemical began to develop this product.


    The unwilling Shanghai Petrochemical R&D personnel carefully analyzed the market.


    Later, the domestic market accounted for more than 50% for the first time

    After several years of hard work, in 2019, the performance of Shanghai Petrochemical's polypropylene foam has caught up with imported products, and is partially used by customers to replace imports.


    Although the quality of imported products is good, the average price is quoted once every 3 months.


    In 2020, Shanghai Petrochemical sold 24,000 tons of polypropylene foam materials, with a domestic market share of more than 50%, becoming a well-deserved "sales champion".


      Win-win cooperation and develop new markets with downstream customers

      The sincere cooperation between Shanghai Petrochemical and downstream customers has allowed customers to see Shanghai Petrochemical's technological development capabilities, and at the same time enjoy more considerate after-sales services than imported products, and increase customers' confidence in jointly developing high-end markets with Shanghai Petrochemical.


      In the second half of 2020, Shanghai Petrochemical has developed the fourth-generation high-rigidity polypropylene foam based on the third-generation.


      According to research and development personnel, in addition to the automotive field, this polypropylene foam is also expected to enter the construction market in the future to replace some traditional building materials such as concrete.
