The textile fiber processing

Reporters from China's chemical Scuba Fabric industry association, commissioned by the Ministry, the Association is developing the chemical fiber industry "Thirteen-Five" development plan (the plan), high performance fibres is proposed as a development priority.

According to the established work plan before the end of this month, the Association will seek to the report, the consultation demonstration and modified and finalized.

Association said the "Twelve-Five" period, the sustained and rapid development of China's chemical fiber industry, competitiveness increased significantly, 2014 chemical fiber production 43.897 million tons, accounting for close to 70%, textile industry the most important raw materials, China chemical fiber, accounted for 80.4% of the textile fiber processing. Chemical fiber textile industry and downstream processing industry has become China's most important export industry.

Worth noting is that extensive development arising from structural overcapacity, some high-tech fiber gap with the developed countries, value-added products is not high as well as low independent innovation brand in the current development of China chemical fiber industry is also evident in the process.

Association said "Thirteen-Five" at the end, production will reach 55 million tons of chemical fiber in China, with an average annual growth of 3.6%, far below the "Twelve-Five" an average annual growth of 9.2%.

This means that "Thirteen-Five" during the chemical fiber production only 8 million tons of capacity by simply adding 6 million tons. Control expansion of production capacity, improving the operating rate, will be the "Thirteen-Five" one of the important goals.

Associations argue that chemical fiber industry development has been unable to continue past relying on growth patterns, but you want to upgrade, to research and development, design, branding, marketing, and service links extension production to flexible, intelligent, digital, fine, green production.

The plan calls, "Thirteen-Five" period, accelerating industrialization of research and breakthroughs in high-performance fiber bottlenecks will be important goals.

High performance fiber refers to has high tensile strength and compression strength, wear resistance, high damage resistance and low specific gravity (g/m3), excellent physical properties of fibrous materials, which are fibers in polymer science has developed rapidly in recent years a special fiber.

Development of high performance fiber is a reflection of a country's comprehensive strength, and is important in building modern powerful material base. High-performance fibre composites is to develop the national defense industry, aerospace important base of high-tech industries, new energy and raw materials, as well as in construction, telecommunications, machinery, environmental protection, marine development, sports and leisure fields of the national economy with a wide range of uses. "Made in China" 2025 "in the ten areas identified, seven areas with high performance fibers are closely related.

Association said that "Thirteen-Five" will require product differentiation rate will increase to 65%, effective capacity of 260,000 tonnes of high-performance fibers, proportion of industry output value of new products will be increased from 20% to 28%. Bio-based raw material substitution rate will Single Jersey  increase to 2%. (Shanghai Securities News)
