Xilong Chemical: High-end acetonitrile market launched [chromatography reagent, chromatography-grade acetonitrile]_Kain Industrial Additives

News source: Daily Economic News

Guangshui City, Hubei Province has entered a cold winter in December, but Xilong Chemical Co., Ltd. (002584, SZ, hereinafter referred to as Xilong Chemical ) controlled subsidiary Hubei Duke Chemical Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Duke), what you see is a lively scene, the machines are running rumblingly, the employees are working in an orderly manner, and there are many new projects in Shili Industrial Zone, Guangshui City. The factory is in full swing with construction. According to the person in charge of Duke, Duke is a company that produces and sells chromatographically pure acetonitrile, chromatographically pure methanol and other chemical reagents. It is also the first domestic company A high-tech enterprise whose main product is high-end chromatography acetonitrile used in LC-MS, UPLC and LC-MS-MS.

Before the acquisition, although Duke had the advantage of patented acetonitrile technology, it lacked operating funds and market experience. Production was unstable, the market was not ideal, and production capacity could not be effectively released. Technical advantages and product advantages cannot be converted into market advantages. Duke is committed to breaking this dilemma and working hard to find partners to jointly build Duke into the leader of pure chromatographic reagents in China. After several trade-offs, Xilong Chemical, the leading company in China's chemical reagent industry, became Duke's ally.

On August 31, 2012, Xilong Chemical acquired 80% of Duke's equity, and Duke officially became a holding subsidiary of Xilong Chemical. After receiving sufficient operating capital support, Duke entered the recovery period of production. First, integrate human resources, introduce professional managers and optimize the company structure and staffing on the basis of stabilizing the company's original technical backbone; secondly, learn from Xilong Chemical's successful production and operation management experience to improve the corporate governance structure. Improve operational efficiency. Through the above efforts, the employees' mental outlook has taken on a new look, their enthusiasm has increased, and the company has become more energetic. In November, Duke completely changed the unstable production status in the past. The output of chromatographically pure acetonitrile can reach 3 tons/day, and the monthly output exceeds 100 tons. The company's operations are on the right track.

Through this cooperation, Duke has obtained the funds urgently needed for the company's long-term operations and Xilong Chemical's strong marketing channels, ushering in a good opportunity for development and growth; and Xilong Chemical Industry has positioned Duke as a production base for high-purity solvents and special solvents, achieving industrial chain integration, which will help improve competitiveness and profitability, and lay the foundation for Xilong Chemical to become a leader in the high-purity reagent market in the future.

The chromatography market has huge potential and this opportunity cannot be missed

China's chromatography reagent market has huge potential. According to incomplete statistics, the domestic consumption of chromatographically pure acetonitrile alone is around 5,000 tons/year (excluding preparation grade), and remains With a trend of rapid growth, the growth rate is higher than the global average annual compound growth rate of 18%. However, China's chromatography pure solvent market relies heavily on imports. The high-end chromatography reagent market is monopolized by foreign brands, and domestic domestic companies mostly serve the low-end market. Some experts said that in 2010 alone, the import volume of chromatographically pure solvents was about 3,000 to 6,000 tons, most of which was chromatographically pure acetonitrile. Therefore, the emergence of Duke chromatography-pure acetonitrile can fill the gap in the domestic high-end chromatography acetonitrile field.

Due to the attractive prospects of the domestic chromatographic pure solvent market, in order to achieve good results in this market segment, Duke is now ready to take advantage of Xilong Chemical Marketing Dongfeng, with its advantages, is flexing its muscles in the chromatographically pure solvent market, and the company's unique advantages have strengthened Xilong Chemical and Duke's confidence in their products to occupy the high-end chromatographically pure acetonitrile market:

First of all, the quality of Duke chromatographically pure acetonitrile reaches the international advanced level and leads the country, which is specifically reflected in product purity, light transmittance and water content. For example, the ultrapure water reference transmittance at 195nm is higher than 85%, and the transmittance at 200nm is higher than 95%, reaching and exceeding the parameters of imported high-end chromatography acetonitrile. Secondly, Duke has a unique and advanced production process of chromatographically pure acetonitrile. Compared with the traditional production process of domestic enterprises, Duke's production process is more environmentally friendly and lower cost. In this way, Duke can save production through price concessions. Cost benefits are provided to the vast number of acetonitrile customers, and the benefits of new production technology are shared with customers.

Once again, thanks to Xilong Chemical’s nationwide marketing network, it can not only provide customers with good sales services and technical support more quickly, but also be more sensitive Capture market information and opportunities effectively and respond faster than competitors.

Be prepared for a rainy day and take every step

Looking forward to the future, Duke must not only provide customers with sustained and stable products and services so that the company can remain invincible in the fierce market competition, but also insist on Continuously improve product quality, strive for excellence, and seize the commanding heights of quality to lead the market development direction. Therefore, Duke has formulated a future production upgrade and transformation plan. For example, in the next six months, the company will focus on upgrading production equipment, packaging workshops and configuring more advanced testing instruments and experimental equipment to continuously improve product quality and consolidateProduct advantages have established the company's future leadership position in the high-purity reagent market.
