Chinese Rubber Chemical Industry Analysis in 2016
First of all, in 2016 the data to adjust about rubber chemicals. In previous years, curing agent, peroxide category statistics in the class of accelerators. In 2016 to separate the vulcanizing agent, including sulfur compounds, organic peroxides, insoluble sulfur and so on.
Here we will make a brief analysis from accelerator and antioxidant of the development of rubber chemicals industry last year.
Accelerator
Accelerator 2016 annual output of 331,000 tons, down about 2.5% compared with 2015, for two reasons:
First, due to the classification of vulcanizing agents alone.The second is from the safety, environmental protection, environmental pressure.2016 major domestic production promoters enterprises cut production, limited production also led to a decline in production. Although the impact of environmental protection inspection, haze limited production.But there are still four enterprises to promote the total amount of 201,000 tons, accounting for about 60% of the total amount of accelerator.
Antioxidant
Antioxidant production in 2016 annual output of 375,000 tons, down 0.72% over 2015. Mainly in the first half of the overall low price of antioxidants, resulting in some manufacturers lack of power production, some companies cut off maintenance, but also a result of an increase in the production of antioxidant production capacity.
Antioxidant mainstream products 6PPD, TMQ still occupy the entire antioxidant production of about 80%.
