The 2024 government work report proposes to implement high-quality development actions for key industrial chains in the manufacturing industry, focus on making up for shortcomings, elongating long boards, and forging new boards, so as to enhance the resilience and competitiveness of the industrial chain and supply chain.

According to the "Implementation Opinions of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Other Seven Departments on Promoting the Innovation and Development of Future Industries", it is proposed to promote the development of the future materials industry, including promoting the upgrading of advanced basic materials such as non-ferrous metals, chemicals, and inorganic non-metals, developing key strategic materials such as high-performance carbon fiber and advanced semiconductors, and accelerating the innovative application of cutting-edge new materials such as superconducting materials.

In recent years, it can be seen that the country's policies for the new material industry have been continuous, and the benefits have been frequent. New materials are an important support for new industrialization, one of the strategic emerging industries vigorously developed by the country, and an important industrial direction to accelerate the development of new quality productivity and solidly promote high-quality development. Specifically, high-performance materials, as a basic and pillar strategic industry, are the forerunners of high-tech.

Based on the needs of economic and social development, the mainland has focused on the R&D and industrial application of cutting-edge new materials, accurately guided industrial development, and focused on breakthroughs in high-end new materials, strategic new materials, and green new materials.

Analysis of representative companies in the field of high-performance fibers in the high-performance materials industry

New materials are not only strategic and basic industries, but also the cornerstone of the development of the manufacturing industry. High-performance synthetic materials are an important part of the development of advanced manufacturing industry and the cultivation and expansion of new quality productivity.

Among them, aramid fiber is one of the three major high-performance fibers in the world today, and it is also the "tuyere" industry of high-end new materials. Aramid has many excellent properties such as high strength, high temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, and light weight, and is widely used in special protective clothing, automobiles, electronic equipment and other fields. The antenna, solar wing and other parts of the mainland's first space station "Tiangong-1" use aramid to enhance the weight reduction effect; The use of aramid in badminton rackets can reduce the vibration in use and reduce the damage to the human body; On high-speed rail, aramid can be found in seats, luggage racks, and transformer coils. In recent years, the wide application of aramid has made the competition for innovation in this market more intense.

According to the data disclosed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the mainland has approved the establishment of 278 national new material industrial bases (7 high-tech industrial bases, 58 new industrialization industry demonstration bases, 94 high-tech industrialization bases, and 119 national torch plan characteristic industrial bases), and the number of provincial-level new material industrial parks or bases is more, of which Jiangsu Province is the most distributed, with a total of 42.

Specifically, in the first half of this year, the new material industry cluster in Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province, completed invoicing sales of 100.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.5%, becoming the first leading industrial cluster in Yangzhou City to exceed 100 billion yuan since 2024.

From the perspective of industrial layout, according to the data of the forward-looking intelligent investment promotion system, high-performance synthetic materials industrial enterprises in Yangzhou are mainly concentrated in Yizheng, Jiangdu and other places. Yizheng has 65 high-performance synthetic materials industry-related enterprises, accounting for half of the city's "half of the country", with industrial invoicing sales exceeding 39.7 billion yuan and warehousing tax of 560 million yuan in 2023.

Outlook for the development trend of the high-performance materials industry

"The industrialization of aramid is a long-term 'neck' project in the mainland, and accelerating the localization process is very important to the national development process." Gao Congyan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, said.

Haitong Securities Research Report believes that carbon fiber, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, aramid fiber are the three high-performance fibers, with ultra-high strength, ultra-high modulus, low density and chemical corrosion resistance and many other excellent properties, at present, in the national defense industry, aerospace, transportation, safety protection and other fields of application depth and breadth. Carbon fiber materials have the characteristics of stable chemical properties, low density and high strength, and are mainly widely used in aerospace, wind power, transportation, sports and other fields.

On the whole, the prospective industry research institute believes that China's new material industry is in the transition stage from self-sufficiency in low-end products to independent research and development of high-end products and import substitution, and the domestic high-end new material technology and production capacity are gradually increasing. With the rapid development of emerging industries such as new energy and intelligent manufacturing, higher requirements have been put forward for materials, accelerating the innovation process of new materials, and the future market prospects are broad.
