UHMPE fiber is an important national military material product, which is widely used in civil, industrial, security protection, marine industry, etc., china is probably the world’s largest producer and marketer. At present, the domestic high fiber production technology is basically mastered, and the quality of some of the international advanced level
The earliest application and production of fiber-blocked domestic technology. The earliest company with the technology is DSM, the pioneer, and inventor of the industry. It is also the first company in the world with high-fiber technology, it was sold to Unicom after World War II and later acquired by Honeyville, who kept the original technology while developing and expanding new ones. In addition to Honeyville, the Japanese Orient, and Mitsui are following the DSM process. In addition to Sinopec’s different processes, others are in the DSM based on the improvement of their own technology.
Experts believe that the industry has a broad market and a good development direction. In the future, if there is no better product to replace UHMWPE fiber, this industry will not be replaced. The price is cheap and the Kevlar is strong, but the price is twice as high as UHMWPE.
The world is optimistic about the development prospects of Uhmwpe: economic benefits, a wide range of applications, there will be new areas in the future. I believe that domestic technology will surpass the international advanced level, in production capacity and sales lead the Global + application area expansion will stimulate technological innovation and industry development. The next two to eight years will be the heyday.
High fiber has many manufacturers’ specifications (hundreds of thousands of d) but the same product class, positioning no conflict, will accelerate the development of the industry: less vicious competition, less homogenization of products: some bias to industry, some bias to cable, some bias to national defense.
