Phosphorus flame retardant plastics industry will boost the organic production

             Flame retardant industry is increasingly developing into a global industry. The performancewas involved in the worldwide trade in many flame retardant agent company; on the other hand in a country or a region of the flame retardant regulations tend to influence globalindustry rules.

             In recent years, due to decabromodiphenyl oxide and six bromo alkyl ring twelve was included in the effects of persistent organic pollutants, the development of halogen flame retardantswere greatly affected, and produced no concept of halogen flame retardant. Should be relatively with halogen flame retardant, the concept of generating promoted the research and manufacture of many non halogen flame retardant development including phosphorus flame retardant agent. And after 2005, bromine prices continue to climb, in stark contrast with theprice stability of phosphorus resources in China, the gap between the two prices increased rapidly, and even the brominated flame retardant high prices once more than doubled the price of most phosphorus flame retardant. Therefore, brominated flame retardants pricespromoted the rapid growth of phosphorus or nitrogen phosphorus flame retardant in 2005during -2012 market.

             In 2012 China flame retardant consumption is about 474000 tons, of which the largest proportion of phosphorus flame retardant agent, a total of about 179000 tons, year-on-year in 2008 90000 tons of consumption, the growth rate of 16.4%. Phosphorus containing flame retardants market to maintain a more rapid growth, we think the most important reason is the main competitor of brominated flame retardants prices, followed by the downstream market driven, third is the impact of policies and regulations on.

             First of all, brominated flame retardants prices led to the rapid growth of phosphorus containing flame retardant. Global brominated flame retardants giant concentrated inAlbemarle, Chemtura and ICL three people, since 2010, three companies constantly improve their own flame retardant and bromine prices of related products. Due to the rising price ofbrominated flame retardant, phosphorus containing flame retardants will stimulateconsumption, promote the phosphorus containing flame retardant consumption market growth.

            Secondly, the rapid development of the downstream industry has driven the phosphorus containing flame retardant consumption growth. Halogenated Phosphate Flame Retardant Containing Phosphorus in China and halogen-free phosphate consumption proportion ofphosphorus containing flame retardant consumption 74%, mainly used for building insulation materials, fireproof coating, adhesive and CCL, rapid development of the field of compositematerials, including a large number of halogen free phosphate for PC/abs alloy; ammonium polyphosphate is mainly used for fireproof paint and general plastics phosphate; time is mainly used in polyamide, polyester and other engineering plastics plastics; red phosphorus flame retardant is mainly used for engineering plastics and general plastics flame retardant;phosphaphenanthrene flame-retardant agent is mainly used for copper clad laminate.

            According to the survey report shows the flame retardant industry survey, China since twentieth Century the beginning of the 80's to study the synthesis and application of ammonium polyphosphate, in recent years developing rapidly, in 2003 domestic ammonium polyphosphate content reached 8000 tons, and in 2012 reached 26000 tons, a trend ofpresent continuous growth. Along with the country to strengthen efforts on flame retardanttechnology requirements, in the future development, flame retardant with its price advantagewill continue to play a role in steady development.
