my country’s powder coating production is gradually increasing, and building materials are the largest application field

Powder coating is a solid powder mixed with curing agents, resins, pigments, etc., which is applied to the surface of the object to be coated through fluidized bed dipping, electrostatic spraying, etc., and then baked to level it, thereby solidifying into a film. . Powder coating has the advantages of simple production process, low energy consumption, and no pollution. At the same time, the film formed by powder coating also has certain mechanical properties, anti-corrosion properties, chemical resistance, etc.

After years of development, the types of powder coatings in my country have become increasingly rich. According to different resin types, they can be roughly divided into thermosetting powder coatings, thermoplastic powder coatings, etc. Among them, thermosetting powder coatings can be subdivided into epoxy/polyester hybrid type, pure polyester type HAA, pure epoxy type, pure polyester type IPDI, etc. At present, thermosetting powder coatings have become a mainstream product in the industry due to their excellent performance and wide range of applications.

At this stage, my country’s powder coating industry chain has basically taken shape. The upstream of the industrial chain is mainly the raw material industry, providing epoxy resin, isopropyl alcohol, titanium dioxide, organic pigments, emulsifiers and other raw materials; the midstream is mainly the powder coating production industry, responsible for the production and manufacturing of different types of powder coatings; the downstream is mainly Application fields: Powder coatings are mostly used in general industry, furniture, automobiles, building materials, 3C electronics, home appliances and other fields.

From the perspective of application fields, building materials have become the largest application field of powder coatings, accounting for 30.56%; followed by general industry, accounting for 21.07%; home appliances ranked third, accounting for 18.49%.

According to the “In-depth Market Research and Investment Strategy Suggestions Report on Powder Coating Industry 2023-2027” released by the Industrial Research Center, powder coatings It does not contain organic solvents, is non-toxic, and is relatively environmentally friendly. As my country’s environmental awareness gradually increases, the penetration rate of the powder coating market continues to increase. With the gradual advancement of production technology, the comprehensive performance of powder coatings has improved, and the application fields have gradually broadened. Driven by downstream market demand, the production scale of my country’s powder coating companies has gradually expanded, and output has increased accordingly. According to data released by the China Chemical Society, my country’s powder coating output will be 2.6 million tons in 2022, a year-on-year increase of 4.83%.

At present, there are many companies in my country’s powder coating industry. According to data released by Qichamao, as of March 2023, there are approximately 12,400 registered companies in my country’s powder coating industry, of which 1,877 will be the largest number of newly registered companies in 2022.

Industry analysts said that foreign powder coating companies mainly include AkzoNobel, Herberts, etc., and domestic powder coating companies are larger The main products include Aiyue Powder, Tiger New Materials, Tiansong New Materials, Wanan Industrial, Shenjian New Materials, etc. Since foreign powder coating companies entered the Chinese market earlier, they occupy part of the Chinese market with their good product quality and complete sales channels. In recent years, my country’s powder coating companies have continued to increase investment in research and development, production technology has gradually improved, and the market share of local companies has increased.
