It is learned from the types of plastic rubber consumption situation, accounting for 41.8% of natural rubber, styrene butadiene rubber together accounted for 28.4%, while the silicone rubber is usually used only for construction sealant, conductive button and a few other non-tire field, only rubber 6.4% of total consumption. Thus, with the non-tire rubber in some segments of replace other types of plastic, its consumption is bound to grow exponentially, the market will be further opened.
In this regard, the industry also agree with these views. It is estimated that by 2015, the domestic rubber silicone rubber consumption will account for 10% to 15%, ie silicone rubber consumption is expected to reach 100 million to 1.5 million tons, while in 2020, silicone rubber, accounting for the total rubber consumption proportion is expected to reach 20% to 33%, or silicone rubber consumption is expected to reach 300 million to 500 million tons. In other words, silicone rubber industry development potential and are very attractive long-term development, which will contribute to the rapid development of downstream industries produce far-reaching impact. In fact, the silicone rubber industry linkage effects on the downstream industry has begun gradually.
Some experts pointed out that the silicone rubber industry, the biggest bright spot is a substantial increase in domestic self-sufficiency rate of rubber. According to statistics, by 2020, if the silicone rubber rubber consumption in China accounted for the proportion increased from the current 6.5% to 33%, then the whole of rubber by domestic self-sufficiency rate is currently about 50% to 80%, thus greatly ease the rubber tight supply situation, reduce the production cost of the rubber processing industry. Thus, the silicone rubber industry development is not just a single individual industrial development, but it involves the common development of various industries, rubber processing industry for enhancing profitability and improve the level of quality rubber products has far-reaching significance.
Silicone rubber is a highly elastic polymer material, has a good high flexibility, excellent fatigue strength, excellent electrical insulation resistance, excellent abrasion resistance and heat resistance, etc., in the electronic appliances, shipbuilding, aerospace, aviation, automobiles, tractors, machinery, instrumentation, chemical, mining, transportation and other industrial sectors, as well as agriculture, health and other aspects of daily life are widely used.
