Create a new pattern of fiber materials!

One year nucleated bud, two years old branches and leaves. Since it was approved as the 13th national manufacturing innovation center and the first national manufacturing innovation center in Jiangsu Province in June 2019, the National Advanced Functional Fiber Innovation Center (hereinafter referred to as the "Innovation Center") has focused on key common technologies such as chemical fiber oil industrialization, antimony-free fiber and flame retardant fiber research and development, and built a collaborative innovation public service platform. From the implementation of capacity building for technology development, testing and verification, pilot incubation, achievement transformation, investment and financing, and talent training to the blueprint of future sustainable development, the rapid progress has achieved remarkable results.

This year is the first year of the "14th Five-Year Plan" and coincides with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, which is a good time to summarize and release the construction results of the innovation center in the past two years and look forward to the future development. On May 12, sponsored by Innovation Center and Donghua University, and co-organized by China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, Shenghong Holding Group Co., Ltd. and Innovation Center alliance units, the Advanced fiber new material Technology Innovation high-quality Development Forum was held in Beijing. The theme of the forum is "New stage, new concept, new pattern", and the nine words outline the construction and development of innovation center into the historical process of national and industrial development, which is meaningful.

President of China Textile Industry Federation Sun Ruizhe, Vice President Duan Xiaoping, relevant leaders of Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Jiangsu Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering Jiang Shicheng, President of Donghua University, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, Chief scientist of Innovation Center Yu Jianyong, Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering Wang Yuzhong, Academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences Zhu Meifang, Chairman of Shenghong Holding Group Miao Hangen, Chen Xinwei, president of China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, responsible person of innovation Center, representatives from provincial and municipal industry and information technology departments, China Textile Industry Federation, China Chemical Fiber Industry Association, China Textile Machinery and Equipment Industry Association, scientific research institutes, innovation center alliance and relevant units in the field of fiber textiles and media attended the meeting. Duan Xiaoping, vice president of China Textile Industry Federation, presided over the first half of the meeting.

Set up a new bureau for innovation system development

"The new material industry is a strategic, basic industry, but also a key area of high-tech competition, we must strive to catch up and catch up." 

As an important part of new materials, advanced functional fibers are based on technological breakthroughs and cross-integration in the fields of materials, information, machinery, biology and other disciplines, and pay more attention to functional innovation, strengthening and composite, with lightweight, multi-functional, intelligent, preferred orientation and other characteristics. It has the excellent characteristics of ultra-high performance, high cost performance, high added value, high industrial pulling effect and low carbon green; A new generation of fiber with high permeability, subversive and revolutionary improvement effect on traditional industries. Advanced functional fibers are related to many areas of national security and the lifeblood of the national economy, are of great significance to improve the national industrial level and comprehensive national strength, are an important support for the realization of manufacturing power, and are one of the key areas of manufacturing innovation and development. From consumer goods, to national defense, military, aerospace and other national strategic materials, advanced functional fibers are indispensable, which has become an important breakthrough in the national supply side structural reform, and will become an important supporting force for practicing the "domestic cycle, international and domestic double cycle" in the future.

Miao Hangen, chairman of Shenghong Holding Group, the lead unit of the innovation center, said in his speech that at present, the global sales of advanced functional fibers have exceeded 50 billion US dollars, with an average annual growth rate of more than 20%, and they have broad market space and growth potential in the fields of comfort and health, ecological environment, transportation, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and sustainable development. Will become the future global manufacturing development strategy must contend for high ground.

From a global point of view, driven by a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial change, the global fiber material industry relies on the technological and industrial advantages of each country, competing to seize the strategic vantage point of each subdivision, and has implemented the "re-industrialization" strategy to increase the research and development of advanced functional fibers.
