The fireproofing material is specifically a synthetic material having a flame-retardant matrix, or a material having high temperature resistance, heat resistance, and flame retardancy. Most of them are used in the construction industry, including fire boards, fire doors, and so on.

According to reports, many of the materials involved in fire protection technology are very complex. According to the principle of selection of fire-fighting technology, technical selection is given, the development sequence is determined, and the required technologies are classified as fire-retardant coating technology, fire-proof sheet technology, fire-proof sealing material technology, and flame-retardant decoration. Material technology and so on. The domestic market is mainly focused on the integration of existing and more mature technology imports from abroad, followed by integrated innovation as a secondary development strategy. In the field of firefighting technology that is being developed and will be researched and developed in the world, we will select high-tech technologies that have certain technological accumulation in our country and have a significant impact on the fire protection industry, especially the world’s leading green technologies that can improve the quality of firefighting products and reduce production costs. Resources, concentration, and priority development. That is, combining the selection principles and development approaches of fire technology, the selection and development order of China's development of fire protection technology will be made.

The building fire prevention plugging materials that have been successfully developed in China and are widely used in fire prevention and sealing projects are mainly obtained by adding halogen flame retardants to obtain excellent flame retardancy. In the event of a fire, although the halogen material has a good flame retardant effect, it releases a large amount of smoke and hydrogen chloride gas. These fumes and hydrogen chloride gas can irritate the human eye and the respiratory system and hinder the fire fighting and rescue work of firefighters and rescue workers. Can cause purely by the fire can not cause the electrical system switch and other metal objects corrosion. In recent years, more and more countries have enacted or promulgated laws to stipulate certain products for burning toxicity tests or to specify the acid gases released from the use of certain products. Trends are forecasted to replace the development of halogen flame retardants. Halogen flame retardants have become the development trend in the field of flame retardant materials in the world. With the continuous development of thermal expansion and fire protection technology in the world, the development and application of new series of buildings with high-efficiency intumescent flame-retardant properties, meeting environmental protection requirements, and more convenient construction, and relatively low prices, have been increasingly adopted by the industry. Pay attention.

Market investigation There are many fireproof materials companies in China, and the scale, technology, control technology, and equipment level of enterprises are uneven. Advanced production methods and backward production methods coexist. The task of energy conservation and emission reduction is arduous, and the overall level of clean production in the industry is not high. During the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, we will speed up the elimination of backward and high-energy-consumption capacity. Through technological transformation and elimination of outdated equipment, improvement of technology, improvement of energy use efficiency, reduction of energy consumption per unit of product, and acceleration of clean energy alternatives, we have promoted energy conservation and emission reduction in an all-round way. In the future, we must focus on the development and promotion of new energy-saving furnaces, the development of comprehensive energy-saving technologies, energy management, "three wastes" emission control and "three wastes" recycling. Committed to the use of fire protection materials after recycling and reuse, reduce solid waste emissions, improve the comprehensive utilization of resources.

From some new products, it can be seen that the fireproof materials market has undergone changes in recent years. From the perspective of increasing product safety and practicality, improving durability, and launching products that save energy, resources, and costs, product replacements are accelerating and are moving toward high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, and saving. Fireproof materials are indispensable basic materials for the high temperature industry and play an irreplaceable role in the development of the national economy, especially in the high temperature industry.

I. Forecast Analysis of Fireproofing Material Manufacturing Industry According to market research, it is found that the inflection point in the downturn of the defense material industry shows strong demand for industry transformation and the industry is optimistic. We believe that in the future, the anti-corrosion industry will no longer have a rapid growth of 25% in 2005-2010, and the turning point of the industry has already emerged. On the one hand, there is a high degree of resource dependence, decentralized competition, and low production efficiency in the defense industry. On the other hand, as the downstream industry continues to regulate and integrate, the requirements for anti-materials will gradually increase, and product upgrade and transformation will also become a defense in the future. The main development direction of the timber industry. The horizontal integration in the industry, the extension of upstream resources and the general trend of product structure.

One of Transformations: Horizontal Expansion

The anti-corrosion industry itself has a low degree of concentration and competition is decentralized. As of the end of March 2012, the national defense enterprises have declined to 1,904, a decrease of nearly 24% from the end of the previous year. We expect that future defense material companies will continue to expand their business through a series of mergers and acquisitions, expand their market share, and seize more market share.

The second transformation: vertical integration

High resource dependence and rapidly rising raw materials have brought tremendous pressure on the industry's earnings. We believe that the vertical integration of the industry chain will become the company's own development needs in the future. We expect that the potential for further upstream expansion will determine the key factors for future long-term profitability of defense companies.

Third Transformation: Proportion of Indefinite Type and High-grade Control Material

With the accelerated integration of the downstream industries of steel, cement, and glass in recent years, we can expect that the quality requirements for defense materials will gradually increase in the future. At the same time, according to the experience of developed countries in the world, the future will be uncertain in China. The proportion will increase year by year.

Key assumptions: 1. In the future, the downstream industries, such as steel, cement, and glass, will have stable demand; 2. Future trends in downstream industry consolidation will remain unchanged.

Second, the technical direction of the analysis of fire protection materials According to market research found that compared to the traditional plate, modern new environmentally friendly plates are more popular with people. Not only the price factor, people's awareness of environmental protection is also an important promotion. The eco-friendly fashion allows sheet metal manufacturers not only to pay attention to the price and process of raw materials, but also has very high requirements on the choice of raw materials. The increase in high-rise buildings, the emergence of fire protection requirements and high-strength requirements are also re-testing the performance of the plates.

Some flammable plates have been restricted to use. People's attention to environmental protection and health has also set higher standards for plates. The direction of development is the inorganicization of plates. Hard calcium silicate board is a new type of fire protection board that represents the world's advanced level of fire protection in the 90s. It is especially suitable for high-rise high-grade office buildings, high-grade hotels, large-scale commercial centers, entertainment centers, computer rooms, large-scale industrial plants, warehouses and other steel structures. Fire protection and decoration works in key areas of construction and fire protection.

From some new products, it can be seen that the fireproof materials market has undergone changes in recent years. From the perspective of increasing product safety and practicality, improving durability, and launching products that save energy, resources, and costs, product replacements are accelerating and are moving toward high efficiency, energy saving, environmental protection, and saving.

The key part of the development of fireproof materials technology is flame retardant. In recent years, the research of flame retardant technology and the development and application of flame retardant products have received attention from all walks of life. The main development directions are: development of multi-effect, high-efficiency, low-water-soluble dehydration carbon catalysts and foaming agents; reasonable coordination of a variety of flame retardant synergies; the combination of resin modification, improve the fire performance and physical and chemical properties of fire protection materials; Intumescent and non-intumescent fire-retardant paint; inorganic halogen-free intumescent fire-retardant paint.

According to a research report, the building fireproof plugging materials that have been successfully developed in China and are widely used in fireproof plugging projects are mainly obtained by adding halogen flame retardants to obtain excellent flame retardancy. In the event of a fire, although the halogen material has a good flame retardant effect, it releases a large amount of smoke and hydrogen chloride gas. These fumes and hydrogen chloride gas can irritate the human eye and the respiratory system and hinder the fire fighting and rescue work of firefighters and rescue workers. Can cause purely by the fire can not cause the electrical system switch and other metal objects corrosion.

Third, the prediction of competition in the pattern of fire protection materials With the changes brought about by the downstream industries, especially the integration of the steel industry, the fire protection materials industry is undergoing a transformation. China Everbright Securities fire protection materials researcher Hu Yu said: "The fire protection materials industry is about to usher in the integration period of mergers and reorganizations. The integration driving force comes from the overall upgrade of the industry structure."

Industrial upgrading is imminent Since the 1980s, there have been a number of companies that have targeted production of fireproof materials.

However, in the development of the industry, the situation of low-level repeat production is looming. Many small-scale enterprises, backward production equipment, coupled with disorderly competition, competing prices down, so that the use of cutting corners as a means to reduce costs frequently. As a result, the problem of unstable product quality due to backward equipment is even worse.

Data analysis shows that there are more than 2,000 fire protection material companies in the country that compete in the industry. The average annual output is less than 11,000 tons, and there are only about 20 companies with annual sales income of over 200 million yuan. Even if the second-ranked company in the industry, such as the company, has annual sales of only 1.1 billion yuan, its market share is only about 1%. From this point of view, in this highly competitive industry, the degree of concentration is low, and the size of the company is small and scattered.

Under this status quo, the integration and reorganization of domestic fire protection materials industry will be reflected in three aspects:

(1) Upgrade the industrial development model, from the growth stage to the industrial upgrading period, and from the extensive growth of the simple pursuit of output in the past to the upgrading of product quality and the pursuit of added value.

(II) Product function upgrades, from the single pursuit of fire protection in the past to the transition from multiple functions to more energy-saving and environmental protection.

(3) The upgrading of the corporate profit model has shifted from the past pure product provider to the role of the fire protection overall solution provider. In the next 3-5 years, the fire protection materials industry will enter a new stage of development of horizontal mergers and reorganizations.

Research Institute of China Polytech Industries believes that the fire protection material industry itself is a high-energy-consuming industry. With the advancement of technology, the service life of fire-retardant materials continues to increase, and the amount of steel produced per ton of fire-proof materials will increase, which will also save the use of fire-proof materials. In the context of energy saving and consumption reduction, the requirements for technology upgrades are placed in front of fireproof material companies. On the other hand, energy saving and consumption reduction in iron and steel smelting can not be separated from technological innovations and technological innovations, and this also requires the performance of fireproof materials to progress.
