In 2007, China imported a total of 1.412 million tons of synthetic rubber, an increase of 8.4% over the previous year; the average price reached US$2011/ton, an increase of 10.2% over the previous year, and both imports and average prices hit historical highs. It is expected that China's imports of synthetic rubber will reach 1.9 million tons in 2010. The huge market has attracted the world's leading producers of synthetic rubber, and they have stepped up efforts to open up the Chinese market. During the recent China International Rubber and Plastics Fair held in 2008, Sun Jiazao, marketing manager of the Asia Pacific Region of LANXESS's industrial rubber products business unit, said in an interview: “Although we have not yet established a production base in China, we have entered the Chinese market. With absolute interest, the rapid development of the Chinese rubber industry provides LANXESS industrial rubber products with a huge space for business growth and profitability."
Market: Leading to International Crocodile In recent years, the output of non- tire rubber products in China has increased substantially year by year, and the amount of rubber consumed has also continued to grow. According to estimates by the China Rubber Industry Association, in 2007, the output of non- tire rubber products in China was: 170 million square meters of conveyor belts, an increase of 10.7% over the previous year; V belts of 990 million A meters, an increase of 8.1% over the previous year; hoses of 550 million. Marked meters, an increase of 7.5% over the previous year; 1.8 billion pairs of rubber shoes, an increase of 13.1% over the previous year.
Taking the hose tape industry as an example, as the second largest rubber product industry in China, it accounts for a large proportion of non-tire rubber products. According to the estimates of the branch of the China Rubber Industry Association, the total consumption of rubber in the pipe and tape industry in 2007 was about 173,000 tons. In the coming years, the market demand for rubber belts will continue to increase year by year. If calculated at an annual rate of 7%, it is expected that in 2008 China's conveyor belt output will be 182 million square meters, V-belt production will be 1.285 billion A meters, and hose production will be 560 million standard meters. It is estimated that in 2010, China's conveyor belt output will be 210 million square meters, V-band production will be 1.5 billion A meters, and hose production will be 640 million standard meters. Driven by the development of the automotive industry, there will be a substantial increase in the number of V-belts and special hoses used in China's auto industry. According to the estimation of the production output of the three pipe belts, the rubber consumption of hose tapes in 2008 will be about 185,000 tons, of which about 100,000 tons will be synthetic rubber; the rubber consumption will reach about 212,000 tons in 2010, of which 11.2 tons of synthetic rubber will be consumed. Ten thousand tons.
Sun Jiazao told reporters that synthetic rubber accounts for about 60% of the rubber materials used in non-tire rubber products. Such as conveyor belt products using elastomer materials, mainly styrene butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber, ethylene propylene rubber, neoprene rubber, polyurethane rubber. The main body of the transmission belt is made of natural rubber, styrene-butadiene rubber, and neoprene, and gradually developed into hydrogenated nitrile rubber and other high-performance elastomers. Thermoplastic elastomers have also received increasing attention. Rubber raw materials for rubber hoses almost include natural rubber and all synthetic rubber. Sun Jiazao said that this gives LANXESS industrial rubber products opportunities to enter the Chinese market.
It is understood that the products of LANXESS's Industrial Rubber Products Business Unit include nitrile rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, neoprene rubber, ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber, and ethylene-vinyl acetate rubber (EVM), which are widely used in automobiles and systems. Shoes, construction, electronics, and household appliances. Among them, the automotive industry is the most important market in this sector, accounting for about half of the total sales.
Products: advanced green environmental protection Sun Jiazao introduced, LANXESS industrial rubber products is a leading supplier of non-tire rubber products, is the market recognized technology leader, a variety of rubber products ranked first in the market. The products manufactured with LANXESS industrial rubber product materials have important characteristics such as good abrasion resistance, heat resistance, and resistance to adverse environmental influences. Its five product lines have broken through the application of traditional synthetic rubber. Such as nitrile rubber oil resistance, suitable for heavy-duty conveyor belts, seals and hoses; hydrogenated nitrile rubber at high temperatures or dynamic applications longer life; ethylene propylene rubber has excellent weather resistance, can be used for seals, etc.; Neoprene rubber has a wide range of uses and outstanding cost performance. EVM has low viscosity, strong and durable characteristics and is suitable for high-filling materials such as halogen-free cables.
Sun Jiazao said that LANXESS advanced rubber products also help promote the development of green chemicals. For example, automobiles use environmentally friendly fuels such as ethanol and gasoline, and automotive rubber parts made of traditional rubber products are susceptible to corrosion, but the application of LANXESS advanced hydrogenated nitrile rubber can be unaffected. LANXESS' newly developed nanoprene rubber additives for tire treads can significantly reduce tire wear without compromising tire grip and rolling resistance, benefiting tire energy conservation and environmental protection.
At present, LANXESS's industrial rubber products have been widely used in the Chinese market. For example, LANXESS Bennett EP T 9650 EPDM rubber has excellent weather resistance, can effectively resist UV and ozone, etc. It is an ideal construction seal material. The product has been successfully used in one of the 2008 Olympic Games football stadiums - the Shenyang Olympic Sports Center Stadium. LANXESS's EPDM rubber grade, sodium EP T 6470, was also successfully applied to the top seal of the Tianjin Olympic Stadium.
R&D: Assurance of Future Status In order to enhance the innovation capability of LANXESS's industrial rubber products, continuously improve the level of existing products and promote the development and application of new products, the LANXESS Industrial Rubber Products Business Unit has established a technology center in Shanghai, focusing on product applications. Research and formulation; in cooperation with Qingdao University of Science and Technology, plans to establish a new laboratory in Qingdao this year, focusing on improving and developing polymers to meet the growing needs of Chinese customers. Sun Jiazao said that all these are for the greater development of LANXESS in China.
Sun Jiazao expects that demand for nitrile rubber in Asia Pacific will increase by 5.4% in 2008, neoprene will increase by 5.6%, and EPDM rubber will increase by 5.3%, both exceeding the growth rates of the global and European and American countries. Sun Jiazao said that LANXESS has unlimited hopes in China.
Rubber predators swim into the Chinese market
In recent years, the rapid development of China's non- tire rubber products industry has greatly stimulated the market demand for nitrile rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, neoprene rubber, EPDM rubber and other synthetic rubber. However, due to the limitation of production capacity, EPDM rubber, nitrile rubber, and neoprene rubber produced in China cannot meet market requirements in terms of both output and performance. The annual import volume is still large.
