The global engineering plastics advantageous enterprises are distributed in the United States, Germany and other regions

With the rapid development of automobile, electronics, electrical, communication technology and machinery industry, the demand for engineering plastics with special excellent properties such as high strength, heat resistance and flame retardant has been rapidly increased.

At present, the output of engineering plastics in the United States, Germany and other highly industrialized countries is far ahead of the global level, and it is a region with good development of engineering plastics in the world. The world’s famous engineering plastics production enterprises mainly include DuPont, Dow, BASF, Rhodia, Mitsubishi, Diren and other enterprises.

From the perspective of enterprise competition pattern of subdivided products, DuPont is the world’s largest manufacturer of nylon resin, and SABIC (after the acquisition of GE Plastics Group) is the world’s largest manufacturer of modified PC and PPO; BASF has strong competitiveness in the field of automotive engineering plastics.

Domestic engineering plastics enterprises are mainly foreign-funded and Sino foreign joint ventures

In recent years, with the large-scale and large-scale construction of new engineering plastics plants in China, some original small-scale, intermittent, backward process route and lack of competition have gradually withdrawn from the market.

In terms of enterprise types, domestic engineering plastics enterprises are mainly foreign-funded and Sino foreign joint ventures, followed by state-owned, private and other types of enterprises. At present, China’s major engineering plastics production enterprises include Shenma Group, China Chemical Bluestar Group, Yuntianhua and a number of state-owned enterprises; At the same time, DuPont, Bayer, Diren, Mitsubishi and other international well-known manufacturers have invested and expanded their scale in China, becoming an important participant in China’s engineering plastics enterprises; The development of private enterprises such as Lanshan Tunhe, Jiangyin and Shili in Xinjiang and Deyang in Sichuan is also prominent.

High performance or key R & D direction of enterprises

In recent years, with the continuous technological and product innovation of relevant enterprises in the industry, the localization of engineering plastics has accelerated. Under the background of technology research and development and the accelerated development of downstream application industries of engineering plastics, especially strategic emerging industries, it is expected that the self-sufficiency rate of raw materials and the production level of engineering plastics products will continue to improve. In addition, with the improvement of the requirements for lightweight, high strength, high temperature resistance, shock absorption and sealing in the fields of automobile, modern rail transit and aerospace, high performance may be the key R & D direction of enterprises.
