Investment Analysis and Prospect Forecast Report of China's Polyurethane Industry in the Next 5 Years

Polyurethane (PU) is the abbreviation of polyurethane. It is an emerging organic polymer material, known as the "fifth largest plastic", and is widely used in many fields of the national economy because of its excellent performance.

PU products are divided into two categories: foam products and non-foam products. Foam products include soft, rigid and semi-rigid foams; non-foam products include coatings, adhesives, synthetic leather, elastomers and elastic fibers (spandex), etc., which are widely used in automobile manufacturing, refrigerator manufacturing, transportation, civil construction, Footwear, synthetic leather, fabrics, electromechanical, petrochemical, mining machinery, aviation, medical, agriculture and many other fields.

In the past 30 years, the world's polyurethane industry has developed very rapidly and has become the fastest growing industry in the chemical industry. In the 1970s, the global annual production of polyurethane totaled only 1.1 million tons, and in 2001 it exceeded 9 million tons, an increase of about 9 times.

Throughout the world, the polyurethane industry in western developed countries has already entered a mature development period and entered a stage of innovative research and development; the Asian market is growing rapidly, and many multinational chemical companies have shifted their business focus and R&D centers to the Asian and even Chinese markets; the Middle East polyurethane market Development is still in its infancy.

China's polyurethane industry started in the late 1950s and began to develop relatively slowly, but since 1998, the domestic polyurethane industry has developed at an alarming rate, with an average annual growth rate of more than 30%. In 2007, the production capacity of polyurethane raw materials in China reached 2.6 million tons/year, and the output reached 1.9 million tons/year; the output of polyurethane products in 2007 reached 3.4 million tons, of which the total output of foam products exceeded 1.9 million tons, and the output of CASE products reached 1.5 million tons. . With the wide application of polyurethane, the demand for its raw materials has also grown substantially. With the wide application of polyurethane, the demand for its raw materials has also grown substantially.

At present, there are many Chinese and foreign enterprises involved in the polyurethane industry, such as Yantai Wanhua, Shanghai Huayi, Gaoqiao Petrochemical, Shanghai Chlor-Alkali Chemical, Northern Chemical, Shanghai Lianjing Group, etc., all occupy their own place, while foreign polyurethane enterprises include Bayer, BASF , Huntsman, Dow Chemical, GE, Kejuya, Degussa and other well-known companies also have a certain market. The allure of the Chinese market has attracted customers and manufacturers from Malaysia, India, Japan, South Korea and other countries.

In the past ten years, although the average annual growth rate of China's polyurethane is twice that of GDP, China's per capita consumption of polyurethane has not yet reached the world average. In 2004, China's per capita MDI consumption was 0.35 kg, while the world average was 0.51 kg. According to the development of per capita GDP and the growth rate of polyurethane, China's polyurethane industry is still in a period of rapid growth.

In the future, the development of China's polyurethane industry will be mainly driven by five aspects, namely the total population, the automobile industry, building energy conservation, the improvement of environmental protection requirements, and the leisure and entertainment industry. China's PU product consumption will also maintain an average annual growth rate of 15%. By then, China will be the world's largest PU product manufacturing and consumption center.

The "2010-2015 China Polyurethane Industry Investment Analysis and Prospect Forecast Report" issued by China Investment Consulting has ten chapters. Firstly, the definition, characteristics, application fields and development history of polyurethane are introduced, and then the current situation of the international and domestic polyurethane industry is analyzed. Development of polyurethane adhesives and spandex. Subsequently, the report analyzes the application field, technology development and operation status of key enterprises in the polyurethane industry, and finally analyzes the investment potential and future prospects of the polyurethane industry. If you want to have a systematic understanding of the polyurethane industry or want to invest in polyurethane production, this report is an indispensable tool for you.
