At the turning point of industry development, workshop-type, extensive, and low-tech companies will inevitably be eliminated. Innovative and functional film companies that can grasp market opportunities and adapt to social development will usher in a new wave of development. The production capacity of the pvc film industry has achieved results, causing thinking under the "cold wave" of the plastic film industry.

Overcapacity reduction has achieved results, and Northwest enterprises have improved their voice

Under the country's major decision to resolve excess capacity, the PVC industry has achieved significant results in de-capacity. In 2016, market prices continued to rise. Northwest PVC manufacturers actively reduced costs and increased efficiency, and market pricing power increased.

Concerned about the standard of calcium carbide PVC enterprise: Junzheng Group, Yili Clean Energy, Hubei Yihua, Sanyou Chemical, Inlite, Shenma Stock, Tianyuan Group, Zhongtai Chemical.

Methanol-to-olefins industry chain will form an imbalanced pattern of strengths and weaknesses

After the coal-to-olefin project loses economic efficiency, the prospects are worrying. The expansion of coal-to-PP and PE will be hindered, which will aggravate the current contradiction in the short supply of polyolefin market. At the same time, the shutdown or delay of the start-up of new coal chemical projects will reduce the demand for methanol. The pattern of weak upstream and strong downstream of the methanol-to-olefin industry chain can be used to allocate strong assets from this pattern.

Plastic film industry: thinking under the "cold wave"

With the progress of society and the improvement of environmental protection requirements, plastic film has a long degradation cycle and is easy to form white pollution after being discarded, which has long become the focus of environmental protection departments. At the turning point of industry development, workshop-type, extensive, and low-tech companies will inevitably be eliminated. Innovative and functional film companies that can grasp market opportunities and adapt to social development will usher in a new wave of development.

DuPont's new plastic is as strong as alloy steel

The new plastic named "Dell Ray ST" developed by engineers from DuPont of the United States has been tested and proved to be the strongest plastic today and will be used in the engineering industry.

The formulation of national standards for membranes started

More than 10 national standard drafting units and more than 20 scholars and experts including Guanri, Lantian Environmental Protection, Arkema, DuPont, Canadian Artes, Trina, Phaeton, etc. participated in the crystalline silicon solar cell module gathering organized by the National Insulating Materials Standards Committee. The kick-off meeting for the formulation of the national standard for vinyl fluoride insulating film (PVF/PVDF).
