In 2008, countries around the world are experiencing the impact of financial crisis. Fluorosilicone chemical industry also experiences a roller coaster of excitement and turmoil in this economic environment. In 2012, the downturn of the global chemical industry is continuing. How and where the fluorosilicone industry will go has become the focus for manufacturers.

At present there are many problems for fluorine chemical industry development in China: the basis of fluorine chemical industrial chain generally overheated investment,Fine chemicals become the developing trend for fluorinated industry  Articles excessive fluorine chemical copper chromite (CC) products, capacity expansion and market demand for the product, especially hydrofluoric acid, aluminum fluoride, F22, HFC-134a, poly tetrafluoroethylene and other devices; fluorine chemical industry at an affordable price, the self-vicious competition, suppressed fluoride prices at home and abroad, the profitability of products not only decreased, or even close to the cost or loss phenomenon; China has become a cheap primary fluorine products workshop of the world high-end products (in particular, it is a fluoropolymer), need to rely on foreign companies to import and so on.

Overall, the unbalanced development of China's fluorine chemical companies, the advantages of small enterprises, and the fluorine chemical base product is worse than the fine fluorine chemical products. The decline in export product mix, manufacturers have shut down for maintenance or down production, such as love the rich companies, enterprise tight liquidity, repayment pressure, industry consolidation and adjustment difficulties.

Recent fluorine-containing organic intermediates and fine get t close attention of the industry. To guide the development of the fluorine chemical industry to the production of hydrofluoric acid downstream of low-pollution or no pollution, high technology, high value-added fine chemical products direction  has becoming a popular trend. States of fluorine containing fine development of better fluorinated aromatic intermediates for fluorine-containing medicines and pesticides, as well as fluorinated liquid crystals, Zhejiang fine chemicals wholesalers do the most. But in this direction, the production of fluorine chemical pollution serious of these enterprises in Zhejiang have relocated and moved to the northern part of Jiangsu and Shandong, according to more. Jiangsu province there are several companies doing well, but the most famous Sheyang factory explosion the previous year; another part of the mature enterprise in Liaoning Province in the production, the basic focus of Fuxin, the development of aromatic fluoride-based. Doing less of the fluorine-containing aliphatic, the more prominent is electrolytic fluorination products, PTFE propanol and trifluoroethanol.  Recent dawn of hospital electronic-grade nitrogen trifluoride to enter the international market, the hospital began to Japan currently has bulk sales of the 4N electronic level trifluoride nitrogen body, a trace of the light to the current downturn in the fluorine chemical market.Source:http://www.mhcfm.com
